Funny I did not see the referees botch the snap on the extra point or display poor clock management at end of game

Yea but they called a penalty on the td in the first half

I agree on walking back home. That was horrendous. Coaching cost Cornersville this game. Those kids fought their tail off & it’s a shame that the mismanagement of the clock at the end put them in the situation that it did. As a coach, it’s your job to put your kids in the best position to succeed & it was evident that it was not done during the closing minute of this game. Cornersville was moving the ball well too. I hate to offend anyone but the head coach handled that very poorly. 

Our guys had no clue the clock started running after a false start/ holding ba

You hurting peoples feelings again?

It seems that way. I picked them to win. Cornersville was better than I thought. I didn’t think they could control the game that way. Their defense is outstanding.

Well, they negated a touchdown on the Pirates that would have taken them out of magic trick range on a 30 second after the snap call.

If you had told me 3 years ago after we smacked Whitwell during the second round of the playoffs that they would win a championship in 2018 I probably would’ve slapped you across the face. 

Congrats to Whitwell.

Nothing wrong with the coaches clock management. They drove the ball 50 plus yards into the wind at the end of the game. They overcame 4-5 penalties against them. They also overcame two blatant personal fouls by Whitwell against them that were not called. They lost some time after the clock started on an offensive penalty but officiating was more a factor in that 4th quarter than clock management. 

Clock management was horrible but the horse collar no call was ridiculous. Whitwell got lucky by that cause it would’ve given the bulldogs great position to score

WHITWELL "TIGERS" 2018 1A STATE FOOTBALL CHAMPIONS!!!!Feels good don't it boys? You deserved it...you hung around a did just enough. Give Cornersville credit. They controlled most of the game but wasn't getting points. Whitwell scored they went up and played great defense when they had too!! Congratulations Whitwell!!

Seems like 5 teams could’ve won the gold ball. A lot of evenly matched teams.

Yeah & that’s part of poor coaching on their part. As a head coach, it’s your responsibility to know that stuff. That’s just being ill prepared. This Cville kids played their hearts out. Im taking nothing away from the kids. They deserved to win that game. Just terrible management of the game at the end on the head coach
