I was at the game. One of AC Reynolds coaches pushed players who were celebrating an emotional win. Some lady tried to run one of Tabors coaches over in the parking lot. I lived in Asheville and this was just poor sportsmanship. Not to mention the refs cheated the entire game. So undisciplined is because the team was mostly black? I played in the ACC. I actually played the game. Win, lose, or draw, adults should act like adults! To say Tabor will get beat by 21 by Weddington is childish from a grown a@@ man! These are kids. What did you do in high school? If you even played. And so you know my son is on the team and I have arned degrees from predominantly white universities. That is right a Ph.D. So who is a thug? You should thank God that no one got hurt and stop getting on this forum acting like children.

It is just a game. Try going in to tell a family that their teenager is going to die. It is just a game. Someone is going to win and someone is going to lose. Good luck to all these kids and coaches that are remaining.

I saw multiple mount tabor guys throw their helmets in this game on the sideline. I saw one mount tabor player throw his helmet onto the field DURING the game. Bad sportsmanship on both sides and bad sportsmanship has no race.

Late in the game, particularly under 3 mins when it became apparent that Reynolds was going to win, the mount tabor guys acted like idiots.
After the fumble and subsequent mount tabor td to seal the game, the Reynolds guys acted like idiots.

Seen the same thing at the K.M. and N.W.C. game last night. Adults acting like idiots before the game on the N.W.C. side running their mouth to the coach's and players of K.M..

Funny thread. Starts with " its just a game". Then moves to " refs cheated". Gotcha.!!

Refs don't cheat. If fans don't like a call their best excuse is to blame the refs.
Refs do get caught up in the emotions of a moment but cheating is making a decision to make the game benefit one team or the other. That is not what happens. Some adults should not be allowed to watch a game if they are too immature to understand the mere basics of officiating.
Young people and dumb people think everything that goes against them is due to someone cheating them.
DON'T BE YOUNG AND DUMB.

Bad calls happen. Fans of teams that lose immediately remember the calls that go against and forget about the calls they get. Cheating infers bias.......Just silly and immature.

Just curious if people who imply bias or cheating on part of officials realize that it was a 3rd round game? Why is that significant? As I’m sure many know... it means the officials aren’t local to either team.

I assumed it was refs from different conferences. But if you seen this game in the first half, you'd have sworn something fishy was going on. It was really bad and kept MT from breaking loose in the first half.

Second half was a lot better.

Maybe it’s not cheating. But maybe it can attributed to incompetence. I’m not a fan of either. But bad officiating shouldn’t be ignored. Commentators in college and pro talk about bad calls all the time

It has been bad officiating ALL YEAR and it was some more during the Okl game yesterday. These guys are human and we are having more human errors. But they are taking applications for Refs, so hopefully, some of the fans in the stands will apply!!!

If you expect games will be officiated at 100% accuracy then you are fooling yourself. They are human and suggesting a missed call to insinuate incompetence is ridiculous. I have my problem understanding calls sometimes as well but I it is never because they are cheating or incompetent.

So should you not talk about bad calls at all? Just ignore them. I'm going to discuss bad calls it affects outcomes. Doesn't mean the officials are cheating. It can be incompetence if it repeatedly happens. If you repeatedly make mistakes at your job guess what happens.

I understand the role of an official is tough and will never make everyone happy. I hear it all the time about refs being bad. Some people have a hard time understanding that their team does commit penalties and the ref didnt just make it up. That being said, across all sports, refs are very poor, there are some outstanding ones for sure but the majority are under qualified and the sports are hurting for refs so badly that these knuckleheads get their time to shine. I dont have the answers to fix it obviously but I do wish that you have to have experience in that sport to ref it.
