Osceola knocked off Greensboro tonight 43-0 down at Silver Spurs in Kiss-Town. Has there been any other shutouts in league history?

Yes. Two that I recall were the Lincoln Capitols shutting out Sioux City, I think the final was 16-0. The Omaha Beef shut out the Lincoln Capitols 54-0 in 2004. In both instances it was the visiting team who shut out the home team.
There have likely been a few more.

Where are you guys getting your scores from?

Neither team website for this game has been updated. The NIFL website...well... is typical NIFL -- nothing/outdated.

Five total shutouts now. Lincoln got whacked by Omaha, they shutout Sioux City. Tri-Cities (Kearney) shut Sioux City out 21-0 in 2001, and the "Waco" team from late 2004 was shut out 74-0 in Houma.

There are 6 now according to Osceola's article. New Jersey was shutout 54-0 last year.

We post all scores as soon as they are received, so check the appropriate league page or the scores and schedule page (don't forget to refresh your browser if you've visited recently). We had last night's AIFL and NIFL scores up within about an hour of the games' conclusions.

How embarrasing...

How embarassing...the team with no name is coached by the guy that Greensboro's owner fired last season in Kissimmee. How's that for take this job and shove it? Look who landed on thier feet and look who's still an utter disgrace.

Prediction - Greensboro folds before mid season and Osceola loses thier shirts because of thier poor choice of names. Who lets a franchise choose a name already being used by another team in the same league?

They chose the name before Billings went back to the Outlaws.

It's called the Indoor Bowl, and I don't think they would create a new Osceola Football logo if they were gonna keep calling them the Outlaws.

For the longest time, the CFL had the Saskatchewan Roughriders and the Ottawa Rough Riders. To differentiate between the two, it was "Eastern Riders" and the "Western Riders". When the two clubs would do battle, the joking prediction was that the "Riders would win!" Sadly, the Ottawa Rough Riders folded after the 1996 season and have since been replaced by the expansion Ottawa Renegades.
