Arlington Renegades Form
Arlington make the short trip to Houston with a 1-0 record after snatching a victory in Week 1.
The Renegades made a slow start against Vegas and found themselves 14-3 down heading into half-time.
The offense continued to struggle in the second half too, but defense and special teams stepped up to stage a comeback.
Taylor Russolino converted a couple of important third-quarter field goals after seeing the offense fail to complete drives once more.
And the defense contributed two pick sixes, courtesy of Tomasi Laulile and De’Vante Bausby, to seal a 22-20 victory.
Houston Roughnecks Form
Houston remain the only team to have never lost an XFL game, having beaten Orlando comfortably in Week 1.
The Roughnecks gave up a controversial early touchdown, which could have easily been ruled as an interception, but the defense gave little away after that.
Brandon Silvers threw two touchdown passes and both Max Borghi and Cole McDonald rushed for a TD each.
However, the stars of the show were on defense, with Trent Harris and Tim Ward combining for six of the Roughnecks’ seven sacks.
Tavante Beckett, Sean Davis and Ajene Harris all had an interception too as Houston shut down the Guardians and ran out winners, 33-12.
