[Monkeynuts]

Garrison rallies from a 23-6 deficit to beat San Augustine 26-23

[JesseJames]

SA gave up 2 blocked punts that were run back for td's. Congrats to the Dogs for staying the course. We got work to do!

San Augustine had 515ish yards of offense, but had 4 awful turnovers ( 2 ints inside 20 going in, fumble on the 5 going in and a pick 6 whe the qb was getting tackled and just hunted it straight into the air), 2 punts blocked in the 2nd half with 1 being ran back for a touchdown.  SA completely dominated for 95% of the snaps.  Anyone who tells ya different is lying.  Literally 7-8 plays is the difference in SA winning 56-14 and losing 26-23.  SA is a very good football team that keeps getting in their own way right now.

San Augustine is the best team in 1A they say since dropping down fro 2A, West Sabine will win that district.

I know it sounds crazy but it's the honest to goodness truth.  Garrison scored 2 offensive touchdowns.  San Augustine shut them down otherwise.  So there is your 14 for Garrison.  A pick 6 where the qb was wrapped up and going down and he decides to throw it straight up in the air and garrison takes it to the house.  A blocked punt returned for a TD.  A fumble without being hit on the handoff on the 5 going in ( that makes it 28-14 now). A trip inside the 5 and get stopped on 4th down by a foot on a qb keeper when there was a wr WIDE open he should have tossed it to (35-14). Two ints inside the 20 where the WRs were open but overthrown across the middle and picked off (that's 49-14).  And a TD called back right before half on an offensive pass interference call 56-14). 

I'm honestly not exaggerating with those statements.  Garrison capitalized when opportunities were presented to them, so congrats to them.  But SA dominated for 95% of the snaps.  That's not trying to be ignorant or whatever but it's the truth.  They shut garrison down and did what they wanted to on offense. The garrison offense scored on their 1st drive of the 2nd half and then never found the end zone again.  SA had just 300 yards rushing and a little over 210 yards passing.  SA has got to learn to finish drives and finish games and they will be just fine.
