London Knights Gets Comeback over Indaiatuba Blues to Grab 8th Place

Down 3.14 on Sunday night, London Knights came back to defeat Indaiatuba Blues 101.26 to 90.40. London Knights took advantage of 18.30 points from Terry McLaurin (73 Rec Yds, 1 TD) and 16.50 from D’Onta Foreman (118 Rsh Yds, 27 Rec Yds). This matchup included four lead changes, with the largest lead being 23.30 points after Thursday. After dropping their last five matchups, Indaiatuba Blues has fallen apart. London Knights (3-4) sits two games ahead of Indaiatuba Blues (1-6), but point totals show a different story, with Indaiatuba Blues up 810.90 to 595.68. Adding insult to injury, Indaiatuba Blues had a starter score zero points (Kirk Cousins).

Jerick McKinnon probably deserved more touches for London Knights, as he put up a whopping 48 total yards on just four touches.

London Knights got pretty lucky that Indaiatuba Blues’s best WR had the week off, since Curtis Samuel only tallied 12.90 points. If Cooper Kupp (24.80 points per game this year) was in the lineup and hit his average, London Knights would’ve been beaten by 1.04 points. Since McLaurin led all scorers on the winning side, it means a different player has been the top scorer on London Knights in every match this year.

London Knights faces Campinas Giants (2-5, 698.18) next week. Indaiatuba Blues plays Paulinia Robots (5-2, 874.76), who has averaged a league-leading 124.97 points this season.
