Anyone who knows anything about high school football should know that a TSSAA official in the pressbox controls the clock.
Perhaps the question should be why Forrest even let the score be that close. Perhaps on the Rockets final drive they should have managed the clock better and not left as much time for the Tigers to work with.
I challenge anyone to provide stats to show the class who in ALL of Division 1 in the state of Tennessee has played a tougher schedule than Fayetteville. Here's a gift. Only Farragut has played a tougher schedule.
Perhaps Forrest football needs to come with a label like toys for small children....a choking hazard.
