The Sacko's beat projections, defeat Quaid-er-ade in 118.82-71.81 blowout

The Sacko's showed up, rolling to a 118.82-71.81 win over Quaid-er-ade, who fell short of projections. Quaid-er-ade nabbed a 25.91-point lead on Thursday behind impressive efforts from Kirk Cousins (27.61 points) and Saquon Barkley (11.2). But it was all The Sacko's after that. They were led by Jalen Hurts, who ran for 157 yards and passed for 153 yards and 2 touchdowns for 33.32 points, and Miles Sanders, who racked up 160 yards from scrimmage and ran for 2 touchdowns (28 points). This marks the first time this season The Sacko's have gotten the best of Quaid-er-ade, after falling 121.4-96.12 in their last matchup. The Sacko's (6-6) will look to keep it rolling against Mermen, while Quaid-er-ade (6-6) take on Joe Daddy's in an effort to get back in the win column.
