San Francisco treat Demons beat Outlaws 14-9 to clinch playoff spot
LAS VEGAS (AP) -- Mike Pawlawski's 25-yard touchdown pass to Terry Battle helped give the San Francisco Demons a 14-9 victory Sunday against the Las Vegas Outlaws and a spot in the playoffs. The touchdown pass with 5:17 left in the third quarter followed a 49-yard interception return by Dwayne Harper and broke a 6-6 tie. Pawlawski finished with 138 passing yards on 17 of 28 attempts for the Demons (5-4). Las Vegas (4-5) was threatening to regain the lead in a 12-play, 69-yard fourth-quarter drive, but Toby Wright knocked the ball out of quarterback Rod Smart's hands at the 1-yard line with 6:25 left. The ball bounced out of the end zone for a touchback. The Outlaws' hopes for a last-minute drive vanished when lineman Jon Blackman was called for holding in the end zone with 59.2 seconds left, resulting in a safety for the Demons. Smart ran for one touchdown and threw for 121 yards. The game was played at Sam Boyd Stadium before an announced crowd of 17,656.
