But as I've stated repeatedly Pearl-Cohn was the better football team when it mattered most.  Midway through the third quarter it was anyone's contest.  From that point forward the Firebirds went on a tear.  They are a special football team.  Coach Brunetti winning his 100th game puts hu in the conversation with an elite group as far as Metro coaches are concerned.  Elrod, Aydelott, Anderson, Pigue, Fitzgerald, etc.  It's not a long list of coaches in MNPS who've won 100+ games.  Pearl-Cohn has also been to the State Semifinals in four consecutive years.  That's impressive.

Game was only close because of refs.

I disagree with that statement.  The white hat went as far as to add time back to the clock and give Pearl-Cohn their fourth timeout after the other one apparently was refunded.  Also on Fairview's previous series the QB #1 scrambled for about 20 yards on 3rd down and the flag was thrown for holding 10 yards behind the play.  

The white hat and the side judge were "Pro Pearl-Cohn" if anything.  I would expect a formal letter regarding the end of the 1st half from the administration at FHS if I were at the TSSAA headquarters next week.  

You saying that but how many holding penalties did they call and take away yards from Jay?? At least 100 yards. Took away a  passing TD and if in not mistaking one of the timeouts was a referee timeout. The game is over and dead. Oan How's the QB. I don' remember him returning to the game. Is he alright?

Our refs were from Springfield and they let MW staff talk to them on the field all night- no sideline warnings at all! Those refs were scared of Maplewood and let it get way out of hand! When you have on helmets with visor and they are still gouging and poking players eyes out- refs need to diffuse that situation early you flag them and let them know it can’t keep happening! Yet you let it go on all night and our players flat on their back shoves MW player off and gets ejected! I’m disappointed and disgusted by these refs and have lost all respect for Maplewood and I’ve been quite for 3 years about them but to be threatened during and after a game on our home field! Pay for extra security because “ they are coming for us”- have all the cops in town there- our police shouldn’t have to be at a high school football game because of 20 players and 20 fans trying to start a fight! Thank Goodness our police were there already and our coaches acted fast to diffuse the situation! Tssaa it’s time to do something about this! I’m a loyal Tiger fan of 40 plus years and never felt so threatened like last night! Been all over Tennessee to watch my Tigers play- but scared at a home playoff game is utterly ridiculous!

So my question is who go to who next year? Maplewood comes to MC during the season right?

He got hurt on the long scramble when the score was 27-17.  He came back when it was 34-17.  When the lead stretched to 41-17 that's when Fairview's coaches shut him down for the night.  He's fine.

Yes correct they would come here.
