WHO DAT? fall short of predictions, succumb to Rick James in 130.60-64.38 rout

WHO DAT? failed to bring their A game, falling short of projections, as Rick James rolled to a 130.60-64.38 win. This matchup was over before it really even started, as Rick James grabbed a 41.9-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind outstanding performances from Will Fuller V (20.3 points) and Chase Claypool (14.1). Josh Allen (122 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs, 42 Rush Yds) and Miles Sanders (118 Rush Yds) did everything they could for WHO DAT? in the loss. Rick James (3-3) will look to keep it rolling against Audrey's Genius Team, while WHO DAT? (2-4) will face Pats Nation in an effort to get back in the win column.
