BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Overtime. Gate City will win now. Union had their shot but couldn't finish. Apparently the officiating has been downright atrocious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refs have made some bad calls, shouldn't have been a foul at the end of regulation. Horrible call! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a dog in the fight but I stayed after Graham's lackluster performance to watch the game. I can say unequivocally from an unbiased opinion Union got robbed. Hell, #14 for Gate City should have fouled out long before OT. Good luck to Gate City & Central but should have been Union.

The pundits were correct I being one of them, lol. This year SWD weak, M7 strong, I knew if Graham played like they.did first half against Lee, they'd be in trouble tonight. I've never seen a team blow a 12-3 lead so fast. Congratulations to them for SWD Champions & Tournament Champions. Maybe next year GMEN but I look for Union to be back strong they're a young team that took it to team with multiple Seniors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely a rebuilding type of year for Graham. Consistency was lacking but there were flashes. Happy for them to win the SWD. Best of luck to Central and GC moving forward.

stantheman 52 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 officiating is horrendous and getting worse every year, its sad for the kids that work their tails off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hokie101 153 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Listen the officiating tonight was absolutely terrible but how you could say it favored one team I have no clue. Dean had two guys hanging on his arms so how was that not a foul? Are you saying because it was at the end of the game it shouldn’t have been called? If anything it should have been called about 15 different times throughout the game. Union got more then their share of questionable calls. It’s unfortunate that two good teams had this type of officiating. Gridiron60, Friendly Henry and gc1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s unfortunate that two good teams had this type of officiating. I'm simply saying there was no foul in those last few seconds. Union player wasn't even close to Dean. I agree, officiating was terrible, period in that game. Union missed key foul shots but I stand by what I witnessed, a terrible call in the crucial last few seconds.

Burrall’s Pearls 61 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 A) It wasn’t a foul B) We missed too many FTs C) Move on and get ready for next season. Given how many close games we played this year, I hope we learned a valuable lesson. Make free throws and beat the hell out of people. Don’t stop, just run it up, you can’t let officials get involved. Best of luck to teams moving forward this season. Gridiron60 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hokie101 153 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Union was a scary team this season. Next year I imagine they’ll be a dangerous team. They will make a good run at it next year. Very talented and young group. Gridiron60 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burrall’s Pearls 61 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 We’ll worry about next year then. Our season is over. This is not a program built on moral victories. Hopefully the ending fuels everyone involved to be better for next winter. The goal is to win the league next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check Twitter, the vids are there as well as still pictures that show there was no body contact on the shot and then the block was totally clean.

Widespread_Panic 197 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 No way you can make that call in the closing seconds of the game. Let the players decide the outcome in the final moments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SXSW 557 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Bad calls happen every game, but in basketball the good players get the calls (Jordan, Kobe, Lebron, Steph). Just don't pretend it doesn't happen, because it does. I do agree that the officiating isn't good and steadily declining, especially in football. No offense to Stripes or any other official on this board. Bad calls just happen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
