    5 Yard Facemask Penalty?

    The 5-yard face mask foul is still a thing in the NFHS ruleset (alongside the 15 yard one). Most likely, the official was a transplant from another state and just had a brain fart... in any case, though, the rest of the crew should have caught the error.

    defenseless player

    If a player is disqualified or ejected the officiating crew submits an incident report to TASO/UIL outlining the circumstances around what happened. As for whether or not they have to sit the next game, that is up district and/or UIL policy, and officials are not involved in the enforcement of...

    2025 WEEK 1 SCORES - VARSITY FINALS ONLY

    By my count, 5 playoff games were shutouts in 2024 in 6-man, both divisions, not counting one forfeit (Richland Springs vs Calvert.) Manually counting, I have 48 shutouts across all divisions, out of 691 games, or 14%. While I am sure there is some merit to the idea that one really bad school...

    2025 WEEK 1 SCORES - VARSITY FINALS ONLY

    Wow - over half of all games were mercy rule. Just thinking out loud, not necessarily advocating for this, but you could make an argument that there could/should be rule changes to try to bring some parity back into games to make them more competitive. I've no idea what that would look like...

    defenseless player

    Couple thoughts here. First, in a scrimmage, it is exceptionally difficult for officials to determine when to kill a play - but the coaches all have whistles too and if they feel a player is in danger, they can - and should- blow it dead. This is especially true for passers, it's a choice...

    2025 WEEK 1 SCORES - VARSITY FINALS ONLY

    This is super interesting - did you do this for last year, I'd be curious to know what the % of mercy rule games were. I track scores for all playoff games (1A through 6A) I never thought of looking at mercy rule % or shutouts (there aren't many at any level in playoffs)

    Preseason Ramblings

    I have heard they will play all away, or neutral site for home games, but I have not heard anything solid... just those as possibilities.

    Whiteface vs Gordon

    I don't the targeting foul was dirty/intentional, the way it occurred, he was just coming into the tackle (although a little late) and hit him high. Without the targeting rule, would have been PF/UNR but those aren't always intentional/on purpose.

    Another stat idea: Does GR have more touchdowns in AT&T stadium than any current Cowboys team member

    Rigdon????

    They just showed an infographic, he is 59-1 in HS games.

    Rigdon????

    had a thought... does GR hold the record for number of HS football games played in? 15 x 3 years for six man, plus 16 this year = 61 games? Did he miss any this year with injuries?
