Drones manage to knock off Hakuna Matata 82-75

Both teams were unable to live up to their projected point totals, but Drones did enough to take down Hakuna Matata, coming out on top with an 82-75 victory. Hakuna Matata jumped out to a 21-point lead on Thursday behind outstanding efforts from Josh Allen, who passed for 223 yards and 2 touchdowns and ran for 20 yards for 7 points, and Tyler Bass, who made his only FG attempt (7 points). But Drones held the lead the rest of the way, powered by the Philadelphia Eagles defense (27 points) and Dalvin Cook (11). Drones (7-6) will look to sustain their winning ways against Flyhawks, while Hakuna Matata (6-7) take on Can I Haz Touchdown? in an effort to get back in the win column.
