Wait whut? defy expectations, defeat Loonies, 359.33-298.08

Wait whut? rose to the occasion and outperformed expectations, emerging victorious with a 359.33-298.08 win over Loonies, who fell short of projections. Loonies jumped out to a 71.40-point lead on Thursday behind impressive showings from Justin Herbert, who passed for 334 yards and 3 touchdowns for 76.5 points, and Nick Bolton, who made 10 tackles (7.5 points). But Wait whut? held the lead the rest of the way, powered by Lamar Jackson (318 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 119 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) and the Dallas Cowboys defense (17 Pts Allowed, 254 Yds Allowed). Wait whut? (2-0) will look to sustain their winning ways against They Might Be Giants, while Loonies (0-2) take on The Steele Curtain in an effort to right the ship.
