Mutinous Apes fall to Brewmasters, 127.2-102.2

There's no way around it, Mutinous Apes underdelivered, at least according to projections, as Brewmasters secured a 127.2-102.2 victory. Brewmasters leapt out to a 38.7-point lead on Thursday behind standout efforts from Kyler Murray (21.2 points) and Alvin Kamara (49 Rush Yds, 56 Rec Yds) and never looked back. Derrick Henry (16.8 points) and Brandon Aiyuk (15.2) did everything they could for Mutinous Apes in the loss. Brewmasters (6-1) will look to maintain their momentum against Cocks, while Mutinous Apes (4-3) will meet WarEagle in an effort to get back on track.
