I've seen high school refs better than these!

Here's where we ought to run Savannah St out of the building. They shouldn't have much left.

 

[Spartacavolus]

ok. Somebody answer this. Stokes has position there and the wing has the ball. Why do we run Skylar to the corner there? I know why in theory, but bringing that extra defender there makes it more difficult for Stokes to get position and limits his options when he gets the ball. Skylars defender can get down to pester him and still get out on Skylar if Stokes kicks it to the corner.

 

[Aesius]

Holy crap. Savannah State's coach looked EXACTLY like Stokes when he was young.

 

[Mautese]

Let's close this thing!

Definitely getting excited for the underdog, but they are overdoing it a tad.

[Mautese]
