I was there.  This game was called fairly.  No bias here.

Not sure what the fuss is about on the kid from City's knee being down?  The replay clearly shows his hand only touching the ground. Definitely a touchdown!  I laugh at this about the refs cheating and home cooking for City. City is probably the most penalized team in the state. A lot of it is their own doing as they are not the most discipline team in the state but they get questionable calls every week and it seems everytime they break for a long gain or touchdown, the laundry comes out to take it away. I was pleasantly surprised they got the illegal block in the back or whatever the call was on the touchdown that would have won the game for the Bees as City appears to never get the calls in most all of their games.

Wasn't the knee, it's the elbow. Uppercumberlandreporter on fb...watch and you can see it clearly. I rewatched the game and a few calls were very questionable , some on both sides. Let the players decide the outcome.

Any Offensive player that is on his line of scrimmage and inside the 5 yard zone at the snap may block below the waist, clip, or block in the back while ingaging a defender. Any Defensive player that is on his line of scrimmage and inside the zone is subject to this block. A player cannot leave the zone and return to block in the back or below the waist. A player already engaged can't not be blocked below the waist by another opponent.

The kids knee being down was a call that could have went either way. Not really upset about that as much as the phantom block in the back on an interior lineman?????  How often have you ever seen that call in a game?  Like 0.00001% of the time in a game.  Add on the touchdown by Harris from the 1 yard line. On the video it clearly shows Upperman pushing  the D-line into the end zone and Harris diving over.

You guys have a really good team. Good luck to you the rest of the way.

It's very called cause it's not an illegal block
