I heard something today about Decatur challenging the field goal Friday saying that time had already expired, or something along those lines, and has contacted UIL? Anyone have any more information? Or is just one of those rumors heard through the grape vine?

Probably just one of those rumors that goes around after a tough loss. :(

that's what I was thinking. Plus...to be able to prove that 5 seconds should've been run off the clock would be pretty hard w/o instant replay.

Didnt Wylie have an incomplete pass the play before the field goal to stop the clock?
If anythign the clock expired and Wylie shoould not have had to kickoff to Decatur.

I guess the clocks stopped a second early five different times in the 3rd qt or something?

The clock was stopped right as the ball was going through the uprights. Typically...one would think the clock would run until a ref blows the whistle but in all of the noise I can't hear one on my video. No big deal...and no need to drag something like this out in what was a great game by both teams.

Sandifer mentioned something about the one second left on the clock after the field goal. I'm not sure of the rule as to when the refs stop the clock after a field goal. Maybe someone can help.
Seems like we had 4 or 5 seconds left at the state Cuero game and the time expired after the field goal.

This is nothing. Even if there were any truth to the rumor there isn't anything that could be done about it. Besides, time keeper was a neutral party provided by Southlake Carroll.

You wouldn't believe the rumors circulating Cuero after the Hutto game....
I'm actually to embarassed for Cuero fan's to mention them














anyway......
1)One of my co-workers told me that his brother said one of the refs was marrying a Hutto coach's daughter
2)The refs left in a Car with Hutto fans
3)The refs rode in on the Hutto bus

Ridiculous stuff coming from hometown people who only have something to say when everyone's down

If you go look at wyliesports.com you can see that as the ball is going through the uprights it's at 1 second...the refs are still looking up and haven't even signalled.

When they signaled and I looked at the clock it was 3 seconds left...

was hopin' we'd get another shot but it didn't seem to work out that way...

I was sad, but hell, we went and drank some beer afterwards and took some legs off, so it wasn't too bad of a night...

you gotta love Cuero fans...when we were at the state track meet, we sat in front of a lot of Cuero fans, and one of them started to say that the refs from the Hutto game called the school and apologized...thats a joke, no ref will ever apologize like that. I was trying not to laugh. I mean, when you lose, you sometimes just need to convince yourself of what happened.
Who-dun-it!!?

This rumor is an insult to Decatur. That is a classy program and that was a great matchup.
If anything the UIL needs to find a way to make all playoff games as good as this one. This would have been a great State Final.

But anyway, Wylie's got the mojo now. Good luck trying to stop them.

We all have fans that will make these kinds of claims. Never lost a game they werent cheated out of someway by the officials. If your one of them, you know who you are.
This is not directed at anyone in particulare on here, just an observation in general.

This is a complete crock, if anything the clock keeper was in Decatur's favor.
