GAME OF THE WEEK
By By SPORTS STAFF
Last week the football team squeaked out a 9-7 win over Welesyan behind the strength of their defense and special teams. This Saturday the Jeffs take on the Tufts University Jumbos, who come into the matchup with a 2-3 record. Don't let the record deceive you; Tufts can play. The Jumbos have lost their three games by a total of 27 points and their defense has had a solid showing all season. The Jeffs need to get their offense back on track after racking up only 184 yards against Wesleyan. The Jeff defense has allowed only 38 points all year, while pitching two shutouts. Improved special teams play, including a blocked punt for a safety and a kick return for a touchdown against Wesleyan, kept the Jeffs in that game but for the Jeffs to finish the season strong they need to revive their offense.
