Probably time to let this die... here's my final thoughts

At the end of the day Boyle County won by 17 points.

Boyle kneeled on another score, Belfry had what should have been another score wiped off the board.

Fumbles included, I think a 17 point margin is an accurate spread between these two teams.

I don't know why the need for some type of moral victory from some of the Belfry people. I also don't understand some of the grandstanding from some of the Boyle people (although to be fair they didn't start it).

At the end of the day Boyle County proved to be 17 points better than Belfry in a game that could have been closer or more lopsided in the same breath. That's what the record books will always say.

That's how football works. Things happen, unforced errors are made, bad calls are made, someone blows an assignment, injuries happen... but by and large they usually cancel out and you are left with the result of which team deserved to win.

Turnovers, Penalties, and Field Position. Three disciplines Belfry could not afford to lose to knock off Boyle, they lost all three. That is the story of the game and why the Final Score was 41-24, credit to Boyle for executing enough that they didn't lose those three things and that is primarily why they won.
