Sacramento attempted to avenge a 26–3 home loss earlier in the season to Las Vegas and did so with a 27–24 win on the road at Sam Boyd Stadium. The Mountain Lions survived a scare after the Locos tied the game at 24 in the fourth quarter, after Sacramento lead 21–0 in the second. Chase Clement was stellar in his debut for the Locos, throwing a touchdown and running for two in Las Vegas's comeback attempt that came up just a bit short.
