The Ones Below All fall short of expectations, lose to THE BIG DOGS in 116.05-112.15 duel

There's no way around it, The Ones Below All underperformed, at least according to projections, as THE BIG DOGS eked out a 116.05-112.15 victory. THE BIG DOGS led 112.85-112.15 heading into Monday night with one player left to play. They were fortunate to have the lead already, as Tyler Lockett (3.2 points) didn't do much to pad their point total. Chris Godwin (8 Rec, 111 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Derrick Henry (86 Rush Yds, 16 Rec Yds) were the leading performers for The Ones Below All in defeat. THE BIG DOGS (3-4) will look to maintain their winning ways against Don't Kupp my Murray Chase Edm, while The Ones Below All (4-3) will meet Papasmrff360 in an effort to get back in the win column.
