Game 3 kept Joe and Jon against Stef and Johnny. It was a quick start to the scoring by Jon as he brought it to 6-2 for "Sacks" immediately, with Joe keeping the momentum. Although Stef and Johnny were cancelling, it wasn't enough for the multiple blows by Joe and Jon on each round. "Sacks" took the second win, leading 2-1.

Game 4 put Justin & Stef against Joe and Chris. This was the game where Chris showcased his nickname, 'Billy the Kid'. Although Stef got first points, Justin went through the next round with three bags in -- but Chris cancelled each one, including a knock in! The game stayed close as each round cancelled another, creeping towards 21. But as Stef heated up, there was no stopping him. Chris was on fire, but it was too little too late to keep "Bag Em" from taking their 2nd win. Games are tied up, 2-2!

Game 5 saw Joe and Jon face off against Justin and Stef again. "Sacks" took the first points as Joe and Stef battled each other. For each one that Stef made, Joe cancelled or made one more cornhole. It looked like "Sacks" would pull ahead, but as Justin dialed in there was no stopping "Bag Em" from taking their '3-peat'. Eventually, Justin and Stef got the score up to 16-9 "Bag Em", leaving no hope for a comeback as Justin nailed two cornholes and knocked a third one in on the last round.
