Wow

 

[Stilllurking]

And i’m not rooting for either side, but the announcers might as well have been wearing CG sweatshirts

Oh my God

 

[William Foster]

WHO SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES?

 

[SilverHelmet]

He was still on his feet and inbounds

I think he was talking about the play when burden slipped down later in the drive

 

[akz68]

Wow what an unbelievable back and forth game. Credit to both teams for an outstanding effort!

 

[Tez711]

Wow

 

[USD24]

Congrats to CG. That’s a great win!

 

[Corey90]

Hats off to both teams! Hats off to CG coaching staff!

 

[McCaravan]

Can’t believe he pitched that...WOW

 

[pjjp]

Classic game. Congrats to the Trojans.

 

[Tez711]

Ball game

 

[Uncle Riko]

The QB made a bad play. He is a sophomore in high school though and I forgot that as I have been watching college all day so I am editing the post as it was too harsh on a 15 year old.

 

[rocketnation]

One of the best championship games I’ve ever seen. Congratulations to both teams for the great effort. Hope Hissong isn’t hurt too bad.

 

[eireog]

Great game!!

 

[Corey90]

Huge CG win! Congratulations!!!

This is common for Jack McInerney. You can really tell who he wants to win.

 

[mc140]

I think he was still up.

Cary grove coaches and players executed so well, credit to esl for stepping up in 2h but came up just short, esl way too slow on last drive but man what a game.

 

[crusader_of_90]

The QB totally blew it. Didn't let his receivers get set on the play before and then runs into a sack and while going down just hands the ball to the defense. What a terrible way to lose

A sophomore. He will get better than his 280 yards today.

I think he was still up.

It was real close. Crazy play.

How can the Announcers call this the biggest upset in IHSA football? CG has always been a top program with 4 state trophies.

 

[rink62221]

nevermind.

Seems a little harsh…

Agreed. The whole David vs Goliath analogy was off kilter from the start in my opinion.

 

[Kevin JCHS 81]

WOW !!!

Grats CG.

 

[forlouann]

I think he was still up.

Well, thats what the refs called

 

[crusader_of_90]

The refs did not change this game. Pops should have taken his medicine and not leave anything to chance.

Live and learn, Young Buck!

 

[Uncle Riko]

The sideline reporter is terrible. I don't know where they found that clown but the questions he asks and just his demeanor is just weird.

 

[MS4EVER]

Dangit Eastside!!! Congrats CG.

 

[tincup1215]

Right, like they've had no idea CG has been here 4 times and won it twice.

Not according to a lot on this board.

They read this board. I wish we could stop pretending we can eyeball teams. Football is played on the field, not in the minds of spectators.

Bc of the hype from the media.

Agreed. Calling it the biggest upset is an insult to C-G.

 

[rocketnation]

Did anyone else watching on tv have it go to commercials twice during East St Louis’s last drive? Brutal timing.

 

[hayley1522]

ESL can’t
1-kick field goals
2-Tackle
3-Be disciplined
4-Stop talking smack
Fundamentals and coaching win games!!!

 

[Go Bucs Go]

This is why Feeto doesn’t do upsets in the finals. Every team deserved to be here. And let the kids settle it on the field.

 

[Tez711]

Not according to a lot on this board.

I think most said this was going to be a good game. It wasn’t a good game, it was a great game. Hats off to CG. Good job Flyers. We played Flyers football but came up short.

 

[linetogain]

A sophomore. He will get better than his 280 years a today

The freshman tailback looks to be special too. Congrats on a great run in 21!
