Smyrna vs. Independence


Recommended Posts

I will say this. Looking at it frame by frame, his right foot could possibly be dragging, or down, but it's hard to tell from the video. If not, his first step is definitely on the white line. Either way, it definitely wasn't a touchdown, as he stepped out first at the 12, again at the 10, then again at the 8 1/2 before coming back in.

 

I don't know what the situation was, 4th down, time expired, etc. ?

 

But at bang-bang full speed, that's a tough call to make either way, and I would say it would be hard to call it bad officiating on that one call. Without seeing whether or not that right foot was dragging, it would be easy to call it out of bounds as that's where the next 3 steps were. 9 out of 10 refs would probably have called it that way.

I don't really remember what the situation was on that play. In all honesty, the Bearden fans are probably more upset with the last onside kick. They are just throwing up all of these other "missed" calls as evidence that Smyrna "had" the refs in their pockets. However, I believe that their bench got a 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty after this play. I could be wrong, but I think it was after that play.

It's been like that for us these last few weeks now. I don't think I was ever more nervous in my life at a football game than last friday. I have a feeling I'll be ten times as nervous saturday.

I have a feeling that it will be down to the wire, these are two great teams. I went to the state title game last year, and I honestly think that the crowd will be larger this year than it was last year. Indy brings a ton of people to games. Millington was rather surprised at our attendance turn out last week.

    • One of the biggest loosing teams in Mid-State are the Macon County Tigerettes. I have noticed that the roster is smaller than in the years past. All the senior's have quit. We have a great group of Jr High players coming up. I sure hope they don't loose them, like they have lost so many others this year. With this young group of girls coming up, a weaker district, they should have no problem going to State. 
    • It was updated this season, because I did it.  Linder is the school's all-time leading rusher at 5,156 yards with 2,436 of those coming in 2014. 
    • Oh, I’m sure you did. Maybe you heard just a rumor, but considering we have a football practice field and a soccer field that’s frequently used for lacrosse games and practices, I highly doubt it. Let me change that. I know for a fact that didn’t happen.   Glad you finally stopped attacking a bunch of high school students, but still obsessed with the coaching staff for some unknown reason, even though you could name more than three (at most) coaches without looking it up. But now come up with something else.
    • You really mean the Price twin boys and Lyin Larry.
    • Now that wouldn’t surprise me a bit. That has been going on heavily since the days of Larry Kerr @ AC. One of the major reasons CC has never really had much at all, barring about 2 seasons in football. AC milks it dry.
