Houston Gamblers Conclude USFL Season with Win Over Breakers

Rounding out week 10 and the inaugural USFL season is the Houston Gamblers taking on the New Orleans Breakers. Pride is on the line for Houston, and New Orleans is looking to stay healthy as they head into the playoffs.

The Breakers have place Kyle Sloter on the inactive list this weekend, giving him a chance to rest before he goes against the Stallions next week. The Gamblers pulled off an upset last week and will look to do the same this week to secure their third win of the season. Coming in for New Orleans is the Panthers #1 Pick, Shae Patterson for the first time this season for the team.

1st Quarter

Houston would start the game receiving the kickoff from New Orleans, giving Kenji Bahar a chance to score first for his team. Starting out the game, the Gambler were unable to find their rhythm, ultimately punting away quickly after being put at 4th & 22.

Although the offense couldn’t get anything going, the special team unit was able to pin the Breakers near their own goal line.

Houston’s defense has been the spotlight of their season so far, and today was no different. Donald Payne came in clutch with a pick six off of Smith to put the Gamblers up early.

Zach Smith came back out for the Breakers, but the drive ended in similar fashion. This time it wasn’t a pick six, but the Gamblers ended with possession after another interception.
