Vikings succumb to Nuk Nasty in 102.47-78.20 rout

Vikings failed to rise to the occasion, as Nuk Nasty rolled to a 102.47-78.20 win. Nuk Nasty nabbed a 16.85-point lead on Thursday behind the Indianapolis Colts defense (11 points) and Corey Davis (5.85) and never relinquished it. Josh Jacobs (112 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs, 24 Rec Yds) and Jason Sanders (3-4 FG, 50 long, 2-2 XP) did their part for Vikings in defeat. Nuk Nasty (6-4) will look to sustain their momentum against Duke Broncos#5, while Vikings (7-3) match up against Virginia Paradise 2 in an effort to develop some positive momentum.
