The Coyotes secured a 31-24 victory over the Tigers in their regular-season meeting on 10 October 2026. The result extends the visitors' recent momentum while the hosts continue to search for consistency after a string of disappointing outings.
The Tigers have struggled for form of late, losing four of their last five matches. Their most recent defeat came against the Hawks on 3 October with a narrow 40-41 scoreline, following losses to the Hornets, Bears, Gamecocks and Midshipmen in between.
By contrast, the Coyotes have shown flashes of resilience in their recent fixtures. They beat the Rams 31-16 back on 26 September and put up a competitive effort against the Lions, losing 36-32 on 3 September, though they also suffered defeats to the Cardinals and Hornets in that period.
The margin of victory suggests the Coyotes controlled the outcome without running away from the game entirely. The Tigers kept things close enough to make the result meaningful, but ultimately could not find the breakthrough needed to secure a result.
This defeat leaves the Tigers looking to turn their fortunes around in upcoming fixtures, while the Coyotes will take confidence from a performance that showed they can compete against teams in their division.
