The Fishers Freight may have lost a tough, close game to the Green Bay Blizzard last Saturday, but coaches around the Indoor Football League still rank the Freight as the league’s No. 3 team in the Week 8 coaches poll. The Freight now stand at 5-2 on the season, while Green Bay leads the Eastern Conference at 6-1. Jacksonville Sharks are also in the conference race with a 4-1 record.

There were also a couple of notable incidents around the league last weekend.

The Sunday night game — featured nationally as the IFL’s Yahoo Sports Game of the Week – Arizona and Las Vegas — included an on-field confrontation between the two head coaches that escalated into a brief brawl. The altercation also included some comments picked up by television microphones that likely were not intended for a national audience. One coach was eventually ejected from the game.

Meanwhile, during Saturday night’s Freight-Blizzard matchup in Fishers, a sideline reporter appeared to have a tense discussion with the head official after spending time on the field during plays. On-field reporter access is permitted under league rules, but following that exchange, the reporter did not return to the field for the remainder of the game.

In this week’s “Coach’s Corner,” Freight play-by-play voice Andrew Smith talks with Head Coach Dixie Wooten about last Saturday’s hard-fought home loss to Green Bay and previews this Saturday’s road game against the Orlando Predators.
