The 2-0 Anchorage Unknown travel to Tulsa this week to face the 0-2 Talons. Odds makers in Vegas have the Unknown as a 1 point favorite.
The key matchup in this game will be Tulsa's O-Line vs. Anchorage's D-Line. Anchorage has arguably the line against the run, and Tulsa has one of the premire backs in the league in Butch Fulton. If Fulton, and the Talons, can run the ball against this defense, they have a chance to win. If Tulsa can't run- they will be in for a long day.
Another important matchup will be the Unknown's DBs vs the passing game in Tulsa. It has been rumored that rookie Donnie Lowe will not be starting this week, and Sonny Jarvis will be starting in his place. Anchorage has Davis and Edwards starting against Freeny and Lindberg, Tulsa has an advantage here- the only question is can the QB get the ball to them.
Prediction:
If you are putting money on this game, take the favorite. Tulsa will win some games this season, but it does not start this week. Anchorage's run defense will be able to shut down Fulton, and shutdown Tulsa altogether at the same time. 14-7 Anchorage wins.
