I can tell that you were at the game last night. I think most Bowling Green fans and players were upset about the Blaze making their entrance on the Purples sideline and the incident at halftime. I myself didn't think about how confusing it might be for visiting teams to know where to make an entrance. Someone from our school should have told them. I can't remember anybody doing that in the last 25 years, but now I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. As to the halftime antics, our coach is very demonstrative (very good word for him). He works the refs like that every game. It's just his style. The Blaze coach was pretty animate last night as well. I don't know if it was a reaction to our coach or not, because I don't know him. I thought maybe they were both trying to fire their teams up. Fans in the stands get a watered down version of what happens on the field. All we saw was our glorious coach standing up to against the tyrannical Blaze coach and his players. It did fire both teams up. It was a great high school football game. Blackman is the real deal and we were lucky to come out with the win. Their QB could play anywhere on the field and one of their linebackers looked like Ray Lewis. I was wondering, why with 130-140 kids on the roster, do they always play 4 or 5 players both ways? The refs loaded up the penalties on Blackmon because they talked a little smack after the play was over (I know, imagine that) and the cardinal sin, talking back to the referees. Up here you have to " respect their authority ". I noticed in the McCallie game that the refs let them be more physical and vocal in Tennessee. By the middle of the 3rd quarter, it was all about football and the football was great. Our wide receiver / return specialist, Nacarius Fant is something special. Luckily, I will get to watch him for 4 more years at Western Kentucky. Blackmon has a great team and on any day could beat any team in Tennssee. Good luck on doin just that,
