Bull Chips come up short of predictions, succumb to Chapel Bulls, 100-85

There's no sugarcoating it, Bull Chips underperformed, at least according to projections, as Chapel Bulls came out on top with a 100-85 victory. Bull Chips earned a 2-point lead early Sunday afternoon, but Chapel Bulls held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by Cooper Kupp, who caught 8 passes for 129 yards and a touchdown for 18 points, and the Kansas City Chiefs defense, who allowed only 9 points, surrendered 404 yards, and forced 3 turnovers (17 points). Sony Michel (121 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and Joe Burrow (300 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD) did everything they could for Bull Chips in the loss. This marks the first time this season Chapel Bulls have gotten the best of Bull Chips, after falling 104-103 in their last matchup. Chapel Bulls (7-6) will look to get another W against Laces Out Dan!, while Bull Chips (6-7) will attempt to get back on track against Fire Gregory!!!.
