Why no field goal there up by 6?? We don't ALWAYS have to go for it on 4th down.

Is it too early to move on to Montini vs Princeton?

I believe the game will be at Princeton, correct?

I thought the PI was questionable. Little more than smack talk. Check out 1:30 seconds of Q4….. NFHS.

There was no “smack talk.”

The ref said the Fenwick DB pulled the bottom of his jersey and pretended he was brandishing a weapon. Nobody at the game at the time saw this or understood this was the call, or even that this was a call that could be made.

I heard about the call after the game from someone who was on the field.

If anyone here has ever seen a “brandishing a weapon” taunting call made in Illinois high school football, I’d be interested to know. Otherwise, this was an IHSA first. Coaches should take note.

The call bailed out DGN, which would have been punting into a rainy wind to Fenwick, which has an excellent kicker, with 1:30 left.

After the weapon call, Fenwick forced another third down/long and intercepted / returned to 30 as described earlier. This likely would have led to a GW FG.

But the ref called PI and bailed DGN out again. I just watched the NFHS replay- there was no PI.

This all for the record.

Also for the record- life isn’t fair.

Third and 6 and there was a jump ball with a crowd. Fenwick intercepted the ball and returned it to inside the DGN 30. Play was called called back for PI. I couldn’t tell if it was a questionable call or not.

There was a third and long before that play Fenwick knocked the ball down but were flagged for taunting. I did see some smack talk going on.

Over the last 4 years, Byron has had to travel to IC catholic. 2 years in a row. And then the next 2 years, Montini.

They were the lower seed once. I just think there should be a better way. Just like everyone said that today shouldn’t happen today. And that it should have been a finals or semis. Is there a better way to seed these teams? We all know Montini isn’t a 9th seed.
