University will win a few this year. Belton capitalized on some early University mistakes. I think 21 of Belton's 28 first half points came off of turnovers. Eliminate those and the game is a little different. Belton still wins, but the margin of victory would have been smaller.
You are correct about the refs...they definitely favored Belton.
If you're gonna cite mistakes as the reason the game was so lopsided, don't forget the mistakes that made it closer than it should have been. Penalties and oh yeah the University pick 6 that accounted for their only score outside a garbage time TD with 30 seconds left
And the refs -- yeah right
You're correct about the refs.
It was 13 to 8 in favor of University. It seemed like UHS had more penalties at inopportune times. Again, I never said University wins this game. I just said if University cleans up a few mistakes, the game is much closer. The interception deep in Belton territory on the opening drive. The fumble on 4th and inches a couple of drives later inside the Belton 20. The fumbled punt inside their own 20. Reasonable, no?
Why the hate on the hometown team? It was Belton that used to be hated in these parts.
Belton has a touchdown called back, and drives stalled by holding calls, University has a handful of 5 yarders, but University is getting jobbed at more inopportune times? More inopportune than a nullified touchdown and drive killing holding calls? Yeah OK
And you still disregard all the belton mistakes that had they not occurred would have made the game much more lopsided
And if by "hate" you.mean "facts", then yes, them's the hates
University did not have any drive killing holding calls? They had few. That's exactly what set up the interception on the first drive of the game and killed the first drive of the second half. AGAIN, Belton wins this game either way. They are a 6A school with 1000 more students and twice the number of kids standing on the sideline. Go easy, man. Have a great Sunday.
