Bemfactor7 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) Nice game, Dwenger. Half their enrollment and punched up a class, you smothered and gut checked Valpo on their own field. They had no answers for you after the 1st quarter. Edited November 23, 2019 by Bemfactor7 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boilernation Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Valpo’s offense just methodically runs the ball behind the massive OL with the RB’s occasionally breaking big game. Two long runs for Valpo’s Burbee we’re called back for holding. One would have been a TD and the other was down to the goal line. Can’t have those types of mistakes against New Pal. They can burn a lot of clock if they can sustain drives against New Pal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats to Valpo, they put more points on the board. But Dwenger may have showed tonight that they may have the best D in the state. Before tonight, Valpo's lowest scoring output was 29.

You got that right. Every single run around the end could have been flagged. For some inexplicable reason, BD started the first two drives with the 3rd and 4th string running backs. By the time we actually decided that strategy won’t work against a team of Valpo’s caliber, we were down 10-0 and wasted the first quarter. But at the end of the day, we just came up a couple plays short. Valpo scored on the first drive of the game against our first string D and were able to squeeze a FG in later. Valpo is an awesome team and very deserving to be going to LOS. Congratulations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on the field the entire game. That officiating crew had a fabulous game. Too bad they’re not eligible to work a final this year.

FWfootball10 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Let’s not forget the Valpo punter. Good lord he pinned Dwenger inside the 4 yard line 3 different times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad they’re not eligible to work a final this year. I have a ruling question. On one of the fabulous punts the kicking team picked up the ball at the 2 or 3 yard line but continued his progress into the receiving team end zone. What is the correct ruling in this instance? Ball dead and placed the spot of first touch? Or touchback since the player momentum carried player into end zone after gaining possession?

So, on a punt, the receiving team gets the ball at the spot the kicking team possesses it. Since the kicking team player possessed the ball before the ball broke the plane of the goal line, the kick ended, and it was the receivers’ ball at that spot. Once the kick is possessed, everything that happens after that is irrelevant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mebuck Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Congratulations to the Vikings! Beat NP. Keep the title in the North. Good luck at LOS. I almost enjoyed my stay at your stadium. I was blown away at how big your stands were and how full and load. What does it hold? 4,000 plus? The hospitality from all your fans was great. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt that punters placement was the best I have ever seen in a high school football game, it was incredible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
