DaggerDennis showed up and beat their projected point total, securing a 193.46-180.84 victory over Quaranteam. Quaranteam nabbed a 17.50-point lead on Thursday, but DaggerDennis held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by Jalen Hurts (36.62 points) and Marvin Jones Jr. (27.2). Lamar Jackson (243 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 35 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and Corey Davis (4 Rec, 110 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) carried the flag for Quaranteam in the loss. This marks the second time this season DaggerDennis have taken down Quaranteam, after winning 183.6-176.7 in their last matchup.
