That had to be the KHSAA broadcast. I started out listening to them, but the guy on there was so drab and monotone, it was hard to listen to. They wouldn't give the score or time, and the play-calling was so mechanical I was beginning to wonder if these were robo-announcers.

 

Then I switched over to Ft. Campbell's (WKDZ) internet broadcast. It was literally like night and day. Even though they weren't for the team I was rooting for, those guys had life and personality. They kept you in the game and made it a lot more enjoyable to listen to.

Congratulations to the Falcons from all of your supporters over here in Iraq. We are proud of all you have done this year.

 

Nice win for the Falcons and glad the supporters in Iraq could keep up with the game. (Please stay safe!) NCC - you've had a great season. Good luck to both teams next year.

Does CJ Croft, the QB, have any college offers or colleges interested in him?

Congrats to Fort Campbell, and thank you to all of the servicemen and women serving us on foreign soil!

Basically the game came down to two things.

 

1. NCC could not get enough stops on defense (and never did stop the run) to make Fort Campbell punt because special teams play kept NCC in the game.

 

2. The Fort Campbell defense was able to hold NCC out of the endzone on what like 27 plays between the 10 and the goaline before forcing a fumble with the score 14-7 and five minutes left.

 

If NCC scores there to tie it with 5 minutes left, I think they may have gone on and won it. Which would be a shame in a way because they had been out-played by Fort Campbell on offense and defense and only two bad punt plays had really kept NCC in the game.

 

The two endzone calls were of course huge but in the end NCC had every chance in the world to tie the game and just could not get it done. BTW, the replay on the first TD was not shown inside the stadium on the scoreboard for good reason. It was shown on the TVs at the concession stands and the ball bounced before being caught. On the other call, unknown if the NCC receiver caught the ball in the endzone or at the 1. Still if you can't make a yard, you don't deserve to win.

 

Fort Campbell was just a little bigger upfront on offense and just a little quicker outside. On defense they covered well and put pressure on the QB all day.

Take away the bothched punt and the stupid play call that left Fort Campbell in a 4th and long whereby they punted 4 yards and NCC might have not scored or be in position to score.

I talked to an official who was working the booth upstairs and was evaluating the game officials and he had the opportunity to see the play on their monitors. He said that the TD call for Ft. Campbell was the right call.

Congrats Ft. Campbell on the victory!:dancingpa:dancingpa

We will all know more tomorrow or whenever it is broadcast again. I thought it bounced in real time but could not say for certain. I know the officials did not have a good look at it because they both looked at each other and did not make a call. But............my wife was at the concession stand and saw the replay and said the ball bounced into the receiver hands.........a photgrapher shooting pictures in that endzone called and said the ball bounced..............they started to show the replay in the stadium and it was yanked off the screen.

 

Actually in the long run by calling it a TD then, it may have left enough time on the clock for NCC to score at the end of the half if you think about it.

I'm really pleased to see a team from the much maligned "old" 2A win the "new" 2A. While I've liked the additions of Danville, Bardstown, and NewCath in the class, it's nice to see confirmation that there was never anything wrong with 2A as it was before, even at the highest level.

 

Fort Campbell was simply the better team. Way to go, Falcons !!!

(and hope this put a smile on a few military personel serving away, too)

Does CJ Croft, the QB, have any college offers or colleges interested in him?

 

 

I had been told that he was being looked at to play for an Ivy League school. Obviously, this young man can not only run, pass, and play ball with the best of them, but has got it going on upstairs to.

What happened to #28 of Ft. Campbell in the 2nd half, he was running at will in the first half, very impressive but he was missing in most of the 2nd half, and #28 was only a Soph!

Was that Ft. Campbell's QB?

 

What about #50 of Ft. Campbell, that kid had good size 6'2 220 and solid muscle and moved well too, anyone looking at him or #57 of Ft C? They had an excellent LB crew

As a senior football player at FC. i couldnt be happier then to go out on the very best note. starting 0-2 and having a 13 game win streak always puts a smile on my face and will truly always be remembered. the sky was the limit for this team and its a shame the season had to end. is there a way to have a post-post season?!?!:lol:

Dude, you played a heck of a game and threw some sick blocks, playing on saturdays in your future?
