London Gentlemen fall short of projections, lose to Well Oiled Machine in 88.0-60.5 romp

There's no sugarcoating it, London Gentlemen underperformed, at least compared to projections, as Well Oiled Machine cruised to an 88.0-60.5 win. London Gentlemen earned a 20.5-point lead on Thursday behind impressive performances from Jonathan Allen (11 points) and Jaquan Brisker (5). But it was all Well Oiled Machine after that. They were led by the Buffalo Bills defense, who allowed 20 points, surrendered 387 yards, and intercepted 2 passes for 15 points, and Mark Andrews, who caught 7 passes for 106 yards and a touchdown (13 points). Well Oiled Machine (4-2) will look to rack up another W against Can I Haz Touchdown?, while London Gentlemen (2-4) attempt to get some positive momentum against Philly Phresh.
