Dixie Normas earn win over Debo in 141.82-112.58 runaway

Dixie Normas stepped up, cruising to a 141.82-112.58 win over Debo, who fell short of projections. It didn't take long to figure out who would be the frontrunner in this matchup, as Dixie Normas leapt out to a 66.44-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind outstanding efforts from Cooper Kupp (32.3 points) and the Buffalo Bills defense (22). Nick Chubb (95 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and Julio Jones (6 Rec, 128 Rec Yds) did everything they could for Debo in defeat. Dixie Normas (1-1) will look to maintain their momentum against What The Shit, while Debo (1-1) meet Chautauqua Ballers in an effort to get back in the win column.
