After a thrilling 16-13 win against Ohio in extra time, Denver travels to meet San Francisco who lost last week to Sacramento 37-25.
Sean O’Leary has inserted Casey Rock for Brodie Orth at Lock, while switching Christian Weissing to #4. In the backs Will Magie moves from Fullback to Flyhalf pushing Ata Malifa to Inside Center. Dustin Croy moves into Wing and Max de Acheval will be the Fullback.
Mike Garrity took some pushing hits from Ohio last week and will be a reserve to start the match. Mose Timateo and Timana Tahu are on the Denver squad as reserves for the first time.
San Francisco will hope that the home crowd will spur the team to victory, while Denver looks for better weather and unleashing an offensive assault.
The match is on TV on ONE World Sports or is being streamed live on AOL.com this Sunday April 24th at 3pm PT.
