Saw the play. My congrats to both teams who went thru the handshaking apparently without any issues. What sportsmanship, especially under the circumstances. My hat is off to both teams, especially PRP.

At the Georgetown-Pikeville game on Saturday, I sat next to the dad of a former PRP player now at GC. He was trying to describe the play; said it was like the Stanford-Cal finish but even crazier.

 

All that was missing was the tuba player.

All that was missing was the tuba player.

 

But it did have players swinging from the field goal posts. That made me laugh out loud. I just think it is so funny that they got excited and instead of hitting their helmets together or doing a chest bump, they decide to swing from the goal posts.

Wow...craziest play I've ever seen at the high school level.

[Hearsay]

Why didn't one of the PRP players rushing in from the sideline just tackle the guy? It would be a penalty, but no touchdown.

Didn't Woody Hayes do that?

I have no dog in this fight! Saw the video... amazing!!! Only thought that came to mind was 2.4 seconds in the Duke vs Kentucky game! You know what game I'm talking about. Maybe in the future, coaches will kick the ball out of bounds and take there chances with 1.8 sec. left..

I think (and I'm no official) that a tackle from the sideline on an obvious TD results in a TD. It happened back in the 50s in college in a SWAC game.

Tackling a player from the sideline's is an automatic touchdown. For sure. I believe the two penalties(for being on the field) would've offset but the obvious celebration should've been enforced on the p.a.t. which could've decided the game considering they would be kicking it from the 25 yd line. I could see how it would be hard to call that with all of the confusion but nonetheless would've been the right call, and should've been made. The head of officials i'm sure has graded that one!

[HOMELESS CAMEL]

Obvious he was down before he flipped the ball back. A wild scene, but shouldn't have counted.

[Terp]

Thanks for the still image! One problem is there was no official anywhere near the play. You can't even see an official in the picture above.

[oldjarhead]

They just showed this on ESPN's top ten plays.

Jim Rome also discussed it on his show this afternoon.

You can reward a touchdown but don't have to. It can be illegal participation!

Hey clones. How about that whack play from SoLou? Pha. Nominal. We've all done this play in our backyard. I'm not talking about the thugs who live down the street and throw rocks at girls and kick dogs. I'm talking about my brothers against your brothers. In. Tense. How about the team running on the field looking like Jared Lorenzen and Guy Morriss just milliseconds before Devery Henderson puts a stake in your heart? Kids swinging from goal posts. PA announcers yelling that the game is over. In. Credible. Clones. You'll never see a wilder finish to a high school football game. I'm out.
