State Semifinal:Rhea County at Knox West

[TNVolFan2000]

I may be wrong but the pass looked like a screen pass was being set up. Your QB threw the ball up in desperation because he didn't want to take a sack. The receiver in question was actually blocking for said screen pass. Linemen were down field on said play. Get over it dude it was blown all the way around. Speaking of #11's, let's not act like yours was so innocent. I love how everyone but Rhea County fans can see it. Again, I have no ties to West with exception of them being in the same county. Bad calls on both sides? Sure. But if you are being honest with yourself, the big hitters went against West and could have cost them the game. By far the worst group of officials I have EVER seen!

 

Not saying either number 11 was innocent.  They were at each other all night.  The penalties nullified the play as they should have.  Some keep pointing to that as being relevant to the outcome.  It wasn't.

And Marshall is a much better player than your number 5.   You number 5 is fast but I could have ran through some of those holes and I am really slow.

Don't fool yourself - #5 is a player. Might want to ask your defense what they thought about him? And I agree - you are really slow. Edited November 29, 2014 by MeritIII

Really bad officiating. Vast majority went against West. Don't know who was trying to defend the no call on the TD pass to #85 to tie it, but that was the type of call that gets a ref banned from working again. Believe that the offsetting unsportsmanlike fouls were post possession, which means West should have kept the ball at least after the inadvertent whistle. Not to mention that there was a few TDs called back against West for holding. You could call holding on every single down of a high school football game. These guys wanted to be seen last night. Very very poor!

The penalties were post possession. Please explain why the ball did not go over to West. 

 

Your argument is falling apart.

Passive, I thought you guys won at McMinn last time???

WE HAD 2 TDS CALLED BACK, SEVERAL HOLDING CALLS, WE EXCAPED BY 1 POINT BECAUSE OUR DEFENSE WAS BETTER THAN THE REFS....BUT THAT GAME LAST NIGHT REMIND OF SEVERAL WE HAVE PLAYED IN MCMINN..

85 is an end not a tackle.  May have been one of those strange alignments with the wing T because he has never lined up as a tackle.  You all are also assuming that Rhea would not have scored anyway.  We would have.  I've seen that look in the eyes of the team - they believed at that point - if there had been enough time at the end - we would still be playing football.

 

 

 

Yes, I am another one of those "impartial" observers of the game.  

 

You can call him what you want, but he was lined up in an interior line position, and he was covered up and that made him a tackle and made him an ineligible receiver.  There is just no way to defend denying that.  It is crystal clear on videotape.  Any linesman who would miss that call has zero business officiating a football game.  It's his job to see that.  

 

The officials were from the Cinch Valley association, which works games in Anderson, Campbell, Scott, and Roane Counties, so their area borders both Knox And Rhea Counties.

MARSHAL IS GOOD BUT THESE GUYS GOT TO REALIZE THAT THEY NEED TO PUT ON SOME WEIGHT TO PLAY AT THE NEXT LEVEL...AND RUNNING THE VEER AND  THE WING T WILL GET YOU INJURED FASTER THAN SOME OF THE OFFENSES....THAT'S WHY ALOT OF COLLEGES DO'T RUN THEM....SOME OF THE SMALL ONES DO...BUT NOT THE BIG ONES...

As SGT Friday was fond of saying, "just the facts, ma'am."  

 

But of course, some never let facts get in the way of a good whining.

Never said put him under center - there are 22 positions not including special teams. Ever wonder what he would look like in your secondary or receiving corp?
