The Tulsa Talons rebounded from their first loss of the season with a convincing 75-50 victory over the Manchester Wolves Friday night on Brady Sullivan Field at the Verizon Wireless Arena.
The backup quarterback for Tulsa, Allgood led the Talons to a 75-50 win over the Manchester Wolves in arenafootball2 action in front of 5,008 at the Verizon Wireless Arena last night.
Everything that hadn't gone wrong for the Talons in their first seven games went wrong in the same game Saturday night, and Tulsa's seven-game losing streak fizzled under a pile of mistakes and turnovers.

The Talons finally responded though, overcoming a sack by Macon's Sean Powell with a 17-yard reception by Mitch Allner and a 20-yard touchdown catch by Fontaine that gave Tulsa a 44-26 edge with 6:46 left.
Tulsa, which hasn't lost a regular-season home game since June 3, 2000, went undefeated at home in the postseason for the first time ever.
