He caught the first pass for a first down on our first drive - got up walking funny because of his back and never went back in. 

Thanks man, I knew I didnt see him. Just missed him that catch. He really is a great reciever hope his back gets well. I know hes had alot of trouble out of it lately.

why would refs cheat. 

Don’t like a coach don’t like a school carried a grudge. It happens not so much cheating  I know of but ignoring calls or calling stuff that shouldn’t be called

I saw a white cap official kick a fumbled ball away one time due to the players charging towards him for the recovery. All due to the fact that he was too fat to get out of the way.

I don’t doubt it. I had one get in between me and the runner I was trying to tackle because he wasn’t paying attention or was to slow

I seen some pics of Swafford during the game kneeling near his sideline with blood on his arm, and another with him bending over with hands on his knees.  Anyone else see these?  I can’t remember where I seen them?  He is one tough young man.

Took some major hits during game. Also heard he had been sick all week and got a shot on Friday morning. Also was told by reliable that he was getting oxygen on the sideline. I watched him play as a soph against Rockwood  in playoffs when he tried to play through injury and took a beating.  Never saw him look as exhausted as last night. No excuses. SP did a great job of hitting him all night and executing game plan. From MC thanks for all nice comments about our team. We are very proud of ours as you should be of yours. Good luck

He was definitely sick, but it's part of the game. Had been sick all week. Hoped to be 100 % for the game but missed the mark I think. Regardless he played well considering.

A lot of things to consider in this game. First and foremost what a great atmosphere for these teams. Secondly that was two good teams last night. Third yes several things could have changed the outcome. Meigs could have converted a few fourth downs when they didn’t. If Meigs doesn’t throw the INT who knows. SP could also have easily taken a 3 touchdown lead right before the half. Lots of things could have changed the outcome in a lot of ways. Good luck the rest of the season to Meigs. Your team was as good as advertised.

No excuses just wish we had been some healthier. Despite our issues. We wouldn't have had an answer for what you brought. Just would have sustained drives easier I think. Not trying to degrade your win you all earned it.
