First half momentum:
In the match between the Idaho udapimps and Les Ranceurs, an early first half lead was crucial. This match was a defensive masterpiece, with each side responsive to everything. Through a rough first half Les Ranceurs weren't ready to call it quits putting up 18 points in the second half and outscored Idaho in the second, but their scoreless first half held them back from the win, leaving Idaho the victory 26-18
QB2 does everything?!:
In the match between the Outlaws and Les Ranceurs, Clement Billard sealed the match.

Although they tried Les Ranceurs could not make a late comeback having the outlaws win 32-27.

82 point anomaly:
Probably the most remarkable part of this week was a 82 point game, not combined but from one team. The game's combined points was 140! Neither team could be stopped the Alouettes and Drama Club could probably kept on going. The difference maker in this historic game was 2 pick 6s in the Alouettes favor.

Train stop:

The first half was what we expected but the second half was totally unexpected. The Lion's Den scored 3 times without the trollers responding getting a commanding 40-16 lead. The trollers could not overcome the defecit losing 40-24.

Pick for pick:
In the match between the Wong dynasty and show me yours TDs, it was a back and forth with both teams earning pick 6s.

Not over yet:
To anyone in D6, majority of the teams are still mathematically in it. Even when you're on a loss streak or your back is against the wall don't give up. The season doesn't end until the playoffs begin and you can extend your season, you just have to put your mind to it and lock in. Good luck to all go out and win some matches!

1 half one score:
In the match between MTL Cessnas and Ravens every half mattered. The match was a slow process with each team trying to get a push on offense. Both teams only found the end zone once each in the first, but the second was another story. The second felt like it was going to go in the Ravens favor but a clutch TD with 15 minutes and strong defense the Cessnas picked up the win 13-7.
