Twee Twerps were led to their 8 point victory by a 22 point effort from Reggie Bush, who snuck past the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense for 51 rushing yards in addition to 112 receiving yards. With this performance, Bush was the number 4 ranked running back for week 1.

“The final score is the only statistic that matters,” The Hellfish coach Wade Iverson said.

This brings the record for Twee Twerps to 1-0, and drops The Hellfish to a record of 0-1.
