Running back Anthony Parker ran for 90 yards and two touchdowns as the host Memphis Showboats walloped the Orlando Renegades 41-17 in a United States Football League game.
Tim Spencer added another 110 yards rushing for the Showboats.
As promised, Showboat Coach Pepper Rodgers used both veteran Mike Kelley and second-year pro Walter Lewis at quarterback, and both produced 4-yard touchdown runs. Kelley also threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to flanker Greg Moser, and kicker Alan Duncan kicked field goals of 21 and 41 yards.
The victory gave the Showboats a 9-7 record. The Renegades dropped to 4-12. Friday's win avenged a 28-17 loss to the Renegades earlier this season.
Rodgers announced early that week that he would use both his quarterbacks in an effort to shake the club out of a two-game losing streak.

I can not thank you enough for all of your great videos. I have enjoyed them bringing back memories from a fun football league. Your hard work in all the posts and the making of "the game that no one saw" has been fantastic.

Steven Guckian Thank you Steven. There are so many games I'm uploading that it truly brings back memories. How I miss this league. The "Greatest Game" was a monumental task but I'm glad I was able to finish it. Plenty more games to come. Stay tuned!

Marv Levy is at the game. And he would get Jim Kelly for Buffalo Bills.

Correct and immediately made Buffalo a Super Bowl contender. After he retired a young lad by the name of Doug Flutie would soon make his way to Buffalo and made them a contender as well. You are welcome Buffalo!

I wished that Reggie Collier had a better career in pro football.
