[Matt]

These ain't your daddy's VooDoo!

Those corners are damn good.
QB is damn good without anyone to throw to.
Tribble is damn good.

Lots of holes all around, but some great players there

[tarcone]

We are traveling to my hometown for this one. It will be good to see family and friends.
Iowa City and Tulsa are opposites which should make for a great game. We are a great offensive team with a terrible defense while IC is a great defensive team with a terrible offense.

Warthog fans get too see the 2018 first rounder in action for the first time since 1Q of first preseason game. "Ice" Sperg has grown tired of the juggs machine and is keyed for some live action. Schwartz just wants too make sure the rookie knows his blitz pickups

[Matt]

Tonight I will be cheering for Bazooka

[VitoStallion]

Hope this defense is good enough to get it done tonight...

If not, Jacobs had better show the f%@k up

[Kozure]

Good game madison. Just seemed like we could never get anything going against your defense. And your offense did just enough to win. You didn't have a good completion percentage, but when you completed a pass, it killed us.

[CyYoung]

Another awesome game by Hamilton. We're in a very good position to get the #1 seed.

GG to Chicago and sorry for your QB

[SteveBsFan]

Wow, 9-6 with a combined 9/33 on 3rd downs for both teams. Really a sad offensive performance all around, but our offense was just a bid sadder lol

gg Orlando, I think

[Hoosier]

Even with our two superstars out with on i.r. (will it ever end?) we win.

We're above .500. Whew...

GG Oakland Assassins..

[JesterBlaze]

St. Louis' defense keeps it close the whole way but we managed to hold on to a meager 3 point lead in the end. Great game, Suicane!

Losing Shawwa for a possible 7 weeks hurts quite a bit.

Penn running away with the #1 seed now...

[tarcone]

Disappointing day. Our defense played as usual. Offense was sub par.
Andrews is having a monster season. Drops another 255 yards.

GG Sidewinder

[r00k]

Dakota ... kept it close for 3 quarters, and then you opened the flood gates. Didn't understand why you went for it on 4th down on your two yard line ... probably the worst call I have seen in the IFL history.

GG, anyway.

[Jave]

This year, total fail. Scott only throws 18 times and 4 of em are interceptions? Wilson averages 9 yards a carry and we only rush 9 times? Ok well, not much to add. The game decided my fate in week 2 when Donovan went down, so I'm just waiting it out now.
