Gator Nation fall short of expectations, lose to Aidan's Amazing Team, 195.32-173.16

There's no easy way to put it, Gator Nation didn't do their job, at least compared to projections, as Aidan's Amazing Team emerged victorious with a 195.32-173.16 victory. Gator Nation grabbed a 25.82-point lead on Thursday, but Aidan's Amazing Team held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by Davante Adams (14 Rec, 156 Rec Yds, 2 Rec TDs) and Josh Jacobs (93 Rush Yds, 3 Rush TDs, 46 Rec Yds). Deshaun Watson (253 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD, 27 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and Alvin Kamara (16 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 51 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) carried the flag for Gator Nation in the loss. Aidan's Amazing Team (1-0) will look to add to their success against Gerdi's Team, while Gator Nation (0-1) will meet Springfield Spartans in an effort to right the ship.
