Assimilate THIS defeat Spoon in 90-60 rout

Assimilate THIS showed up, rolling to a 90-60 win over Spoon, who fell short of projections. Spoon took a 25-point lead on Thursday behind standout performances from the Indianapolis Colts defense (13 points) and Kevin Byard (6). But it was all Assimilate THIS after that. They were led by Daniel Carlson, who made all 3 of his FG attempts for 15 points, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who caught 4 passes for 149 yards and a touchdown (13 points). Assimilate THIS (6-4) will look to build on their success against Philly Phresh, while Spoon (5-5) will try to generate some positive momentum against London Gentlemen.
