Ripsnorters smirk at predictions, knock off Sunnydale Scoobies in 150.7-67.0 rout

Ripsnorters exceeded their projected point total, cruising to a 150.7-67.0 win over Sunnydale Scoobies, who fell short of projections. Sunnydale Scoobies nabbed a 20.9-point lead on Thursday behind stellar efforts from the Washington Football Team defense, who allowed 16 points, surrendered 247 yards, and forced 2 turnovers for 19 points, and Ezekiel Elliott, who ran for 32 yards (1.9 points). But it was all Ripsnorters after that. They were led by Tyreek Hill (13 Rec, 269 Rec Yds, 3 Rec TDs) and Tom Brady (345 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs). This marks the second time this season Ripsnorters have beaten Sunnydale Scoobies, after winning 120.98-103.02 in their last matchup. Ripsnorters (8-4) will look to keep it rolling against Toxins, while Sunnydale Scoobies (6-6) attempt to get back in the win column against Short Bus Ryderz.
