Longhorns Dominate Defending Champs in Ann Arbor

by: Sugar (September 11, 2024)

Two dirty-dawg CFCC weeks are in the books and the upset train continued in Week 2 with several point spread upsets cratering the Week 2 average score to an embarrasing 49 points. One upset that wasn't was the Texas Longhorns invading The Big House and dominating the defending champion Michigan Wolverines. We don't know how good Michigan is this year, but it is possible that Texas may be very good and could easily make another National Championship run. Later in the day, Syracuse beat Pitt, Iowa State hit a monster final gun field goal to take down Iowa, Cal made a long trip to spank Auburn and South Carolina cruised past Kentucky. There were several other pucker factor games as well as South Florida was within a field goal of Nick Sabanless Alabama late and Oklahoma could only muster a safety after halftime to squeak past Houston. Oregon and Arizona State had close games in the nightcaps.

Despite most players struggles, Matt Rendall of Mishawaka, Indiana cruised through the week with 92 points on a 13-2 mark. Like a lot of players, he lost big on Auburn (13) but only had 1 on Kansas. Nice job Matt. And he also leads the contest overall. Josh Boustead was Week 2 runner-up with 86 points on 13 wins (Auburn and Kentucky losses) and Seth Warthen from Salt Lake City, UT finished 3rd with 82 points. On the overall scoreboard, we find last weeks winner, Mack Morris, in 2nd place just 4 points behind Matt Rendall. Third place is held by Courtney Carpenter from Roseville, CA, 26 points off the leading pace.

On the Group Play front, Snoop's Clean Canines, presented by WFO EWX has the lead with an average player score of 108.0. Perennial group powerhouse, Boomerbacks, are just 7 points behind with Stop, Hamilltime is tied with Water Wizards for third place. Scurvy Dawgs is in 5th place after 2 weeks.

Week 3 is on deck with several interesting match-ups on the dirty-dawg docket. Alabama invades the north with a tilt at Wisconsin. We have some MACtion with Central Michigan at Illinois and Cincinnati at Miami (the other one). It is also PAC-2 rivalry weekend with Oregon at Oregon State and Washington State at Washington. The Week 3 game form closes at the usual time, which is 11 AM CDT Saturday. Good luck and enjoy the games!
