Results:

Dead 94 VS Big Dog 93

All 32 of Bijan Robinson's points counted in Not Dead Yet's win

This was expected to be a close game, and the predictions ended up being right. Not Dead Yet tightroped past Big Dog Sports, winning 94 to 93. The 1 point margin that separated these two teams is the smallest gap of the season so far.

The win brings Not Dead Yet's record to 2 – 1, while dropping Big Dog Sports to 1 – 2.

Bijan Robinson was the key contributor for Not Dead Yet, posting 32 points. That performance was the 4th best of any player this week.1 He didn't just outgain the Packers on the ground Thursday, he piled up more rushing yards than they have for the whole season.

Jalen Hurts loomed large in the loss for Big Dog Sports, producing 12 points.2 That performance was worse than every other player this week.1

Coach Thomas Schwanebeck tried to second guess the experts this week when setting their lineup, and the result was very costly. They started Emeka Egbuka instead of Zay Flowers, despite the experts' prediction that Flowers should have played.

This decision cost Big Dog Sports a total of 4 points, which cost them the game. The bad decision is more of the same for Coach Schwanebeck, whose gameday decisions have been some of the worst in the league this season.
