Game was moved up to 5pm but Mother Nature started delaying the game.

Lots of flags.  SOC pretty much holds on every play.

I'm still a bit surprised that MP beat Montgomery. (It didn't surprise me at all, though, that Huntsville beat Marshall.)

They have a good defense but it's hard to keep it up when there's holding and clipping going on.  The refs threw the flags for a while, then seemed to back off a little. There were multiple USC flags even on extra point kicks. 

SOC is tough to beat for sure. Lots of speed and talent. The QB doesn't need to be all that accurate,  with the receivers they have.

I was told that a SOC player picked up and body slammed the Mt Pleasant player and that kid had to leave in an ambulance. Anyone at the game have footage of this? SOC playing dirty as usual?

SOC plays dirty in every game. Last night was an embarrassing joke of officiating. Fights from the beginning, just like in the SOC/PNG game last year. SOC is the common denominator. They’re daring the refs to penalize them, knowing the refs won’t have the guts to actually call every flag or eject anyone. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

From what I was told by MP folks it was both teams with the extracurriculars last night. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Missed calls will happen, that's part of the game. As an official, clear and concise communication with players and coaches is key. Brief descriptions to coaching staff are key. Many times, officials will sit there and try to have a full-on conversation about a call with a coach. This always leads to losing span of control of the game. Hope the young man recovers. 

Looking forward to the remainder of the 5A DII playoffs.

The refs were flagging both teams, but watching on TL or whatever, the camera isn't always on the extra side action going on, so I can't say what happened every time. The refs were in a sort of confusion, throwing flags then waving them off, then throwing the flag again. The announcers kept blaming the rain delay, amusingly, saying that it caused "animosity".  As far as body slamming, the MP RB, or at least one, was sort of small, and the SOC defenders repeatedly would tackle him by just lifting him up into the air, but i didn't see them body slam, and didn't see the one in question.  On the one of the extra points the announcers claimed that 2 or 3 players from both teams were flagged, so offsetting penalties, however the consequence is if any of them got another USC then they would be out of the game. Tough game overall, and I don't think that MP was ready for that type of intensity.  If Huntsville gets to play SOC, then it will surely be interesting, IMO, just based on what I saw of Huntsville at PNG this season.
