Omaha played host for the first time this season to the division leading Iowa City Ducks. The Ducks lived up to their reputation as the hard hitting division leader, and jumped out to a quick lead in the 4th minute. The GOATS tightened up their defense, but were unable to come up with an offensive answer, and the Ducks would score again in the 35th and 38th minute, leading 21-0 at half. The Ducks took advantage of some key injuries and tired legs on the GOATS side in the 2nd half, and the visitors pulled further away. The GOATS were able to dot down two tries late in the game by Jeremy Eaves and Jaco Visser, and the final whistle would give the victory to the visiting Ducks 61-12. The GOATS get a much needed bye week to rest, but will be on the road the following week to play Clinton Muddy River in Clinton, IA.
