Results:

Dominators 109 VS Mudders 94

James Cook III couldn't measure up against The Dominators

The Dominators took Mad Mudders out of the playoffs last year, and went ahead and rubbed some salt in that wound this week. They wound up with a solid victory against Mad Mudders, winning 109 to 94. The Dominators won despite being projected to lose by more points than any other team (18 point underdog).

The Dominators did a decent job during Sunday's main action. Evan McPherson and Nico Collins drove the bus, scoring 35 points between them. McPherson scored 19 points, which were the most that any kicker collected this week.

Meanwhile, Mad Mudders decided the whole 'scoring points' thing was passe. Justin Herbert was the worst of a six man group of underperformers, scoring 14 points.

Going into Sunday night, Mad Mudders were in a tough spot. Coach Dwight Yarger needed James Cook III and Derrick Henry to outscore the Ravens Defense/ST and Lamar Jackson by 14 points.

The Ravens and Jackson did pretty good, scoring 43 points and all but putting the game out of reach. Cook III and King Henry gave it a good effort, but their 42 points weren't nearly enough.
