Results: Yoopers 124 VS Dead 79 Travis Etienne produces 28 points to lead Da Yoopers in victory Scoring the fewest points in the league for the week is bad strategy. Just ask Coach Patrick O'Dell. Not Dead Yet suffered a huge loss to Da Yoopers, going down 124 to 79. Not Dead Yet just barely beat Da Yoopers back in week three, so the turnabout this week was fair play. Da Yoopers improve to 6 – 2 after winning four out of their last five games. The loss drops Not Dead Yet's record to 5 – 3. Travis Etienne has been coming through for Da Yoopers all year, and this week was no different. Although Da Yoopers got a nice group performance in the win, Etienne was the best of the bunch, delivering 28 points. He hasn't been messing around recently, performing better than any other starter over the last three weeks. It's hard to believe this massive 56-yard score was his first career receiving touchdown. While Da Yoopers had plenty of heroes in the victory, Not Dead Yet had plenty of duds in the loss. Lamar Jackson was the worst of a six man group of underperformers, dropping only 13 points.2 Coach O'Dell has to be used to bad scores from Jackson, who has been the worst performer on Not Dead Yet more times than any other player. His performances have been a good barometer for Not Dead Yet this season, as they have gone 1 – 3 when he fails to meet his expectations, and 3 – 0 when he meets them. Not Dead Yet and Sack Attack play next week in a battle for the South division lead. Not Dead Yet will have to put their running back depth to the test in that one, as David Montgomery has his bye week. Da Yoopers' next game will be against Team Up Honor in a rematch from week four. Da Yoopers won the previous matchup 94 to 78. Da Yoopers will face off against Jalen Hurts in next week's game, part of a three game stretch against tough quarterbacks which will see them take on Josh Allen and Tua Tagovailoa in the following weeks.
