[TigerBlues]

6-12 points left off the field. Lemaster had been solid over the last few weeks on XPs, so I am lost as to why we didnt go for field goes on either of the goal line stands in which we came up empty. The officiating was weak all night. Seems like they only threw a flag whenever it greatly affected the Rams or Tigers. I havent looked back at the film but it seemed like anytime someone needed a first down, but was stopped by the defense, the yellow laundry went to flying to ensure a new set of downs. It went both ways. As for the TD/PI, Carson extended his arms, but was being held all the way down the field, for me it would have been a no call, especially with the circumstances. But, we got an extra down just before half time after spiking it on 4th down. The officiating was poor, but imo, didnt change the outcome of the game. Not scoring twice inside the 5 did. Once it turns into a 14 point swing. There's your ball game. Dont leave points on the field and the PI isnt even a factor.

This was the Raceland team that myself and many others expected to see in the preseason. Gritty, determined, quick upfront and very physical. I dont think got caught looking past Raceland. I think we just executed our game plan well and played like we gave a crap. Paintsville needed this ball game. From Chirico on down, none of them responded well to getting smacked in the mouth. In any event, good luck to the Tigers the rest of the way. To the Ram seniors, thank you for four years of your life. Thank you for putting it all on the line last night, proud of each and everyone of the Rams! Almost became Avengers last night, after looking like a powdered doughnut in the hands of my 2 year old a few weeks ago!

Great analysis, hopefully it will work out next year
