Having to struggle through the season was worth it for that.

congrats to the refs for giving WeBo the game. I’m honestly disgusted.

Hell of a game

[javaswat01]

Ooof, that Pass Interference call was poor, to put it mildly. Nevermind the fact that the WR took multiple steps out of bound running down the sideline

[PHJIrish]

There's no way that the 4A game starts at 3!  We need to award the trophy and the mental attitude award.  Then empty the stadium and clean all in one hour.

Never let it be close enough for the refs to decide it.  Luers beat themselves with penalties at the wrong time.  Can not do that in a state championship.

Just stepped out of bounds, or did the defender have anything to do with it?

Replay clearly showed that the defender's contact caused the receiver to go out of bounds. Remember, there was also that not too smart interference with a fair catch penalty. Take that away, and Webo would not have been in FG range.

I would have to agree.

You two have no clue. Receiver was being pushed out of bounds by defender. Interference everytime. Ignorance like this makes me laugh

Good thing no questionable calls went against Western Boone the entire rest of the game.

Haha. Maybe pick off some snider outcasts and dwenger outcasts and hey maybe go over to ohio and get yourself a RB.

Then it’s no foul.

Who says they can’t start the game before the fans get in? Besides getting behind on starting times isn’t all that bad.

True, but the game came down to a penalty that should've never been called. Refs deciding a game at any level is just brutal.

No, contact didn't make the receiver step out, receiver stepped out  before the contact.

It was a spot on call. 

You could see on the damn replay the receiver was getting hammered!

Great win for WeBo.

Since when is a defender contacting the receiver and knocking him off his route not defense pass interference?

Solid call.

Definite tip of the cap to the 3rd team today.

Several bang-bang calls with fumbles/spots. The holding late with the 4th down measurement before WeBo decided accept/decline.

And the unfortunate kick catch and defensive pass interference calls that were 100% the right call. A penalty is a penalty whether in the first or 48th minute.

The crew was top notch in my book as expected.

I’m sitting in the pressbox with half a dozen other observers. Unanimously agreed with the call.

How can you start a game before the fans enter and are seated?  Why allow fans if that's the case?

I agree, a great call. Glad the refs had the balls to call it.

Western Boone had at least one more down if needed and that kick could've been good from another 15 yards out anyway.

Defender was playing the ball all the way. The Dunning-Kruger Effect makes me laugh.
