Coach Talk

Wildebeasts
Hey, the key to football is creating mismatches, right? Not only did we double up AZTECS at WR (52 points to 25.2), we also utterly dominated them at RB (66.7 to 7).
AZTECS
Hey, our crew was just resting up for next week, right? The four offensive position starters (two WRs, one RB, one TE) on AZTECS collectively put up 271 yards and just one touchdown in Week 2. Our opponent's skill players definitely outperformed us by logging 446 yards and seven scores.
