Jacksonville Sharks News Release
JACKSONVILLE, FL - This Saturday, the Jacksonville Sharks will be on the road for a crucial matchup against the Tulsa Oilers. With the Sharks sitting at 9-5, a win would officially lock up their spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs. Tulsa, currently 8-6, is fighting to climb back into the top of the division to keep their own postseason hopes alive, making this a must win game for both teams.
After a disappointing and unexpected loss last week at home to the San Antonio Gunslingers, the Sharks are facing a wake up call as they head out on the road. Meanwhile, Tulsa is riding high after a thrilling double overtime win against the Massachusetts Pirates, giving them momentum heading into this crucial matchup.
There will be strength on strength moments every time the Sharks take the field on offense. Tulsa's strength lies in their defense, ranked third in the IFL, just ahead of the Sharks. However, Jacksonville holds the edge offensively, led by quarterback Tyler Huff, who currently leads the IFL in rushing yards. His ability to keep defenses on their heels has helped the Sharks remain a top contender and will need his best game in Tulsa.
