If UWG plays like they did tonite, it could be a close game. What is wrong in Wolfsville?

That's just dumb.

Yep. Bulletin board material for next year. Also threw a long pass on the last play with something like 12 seconds remaining. Victory formation would have been the right thing to do in that case.
I'll (almost) never complain about getting beaten by a better team, which was the case in this game, but when the opponent acts as though they have "never been there before" or displays poor sportsmanship, I really lose respect for that team and their coaching staff.

Don't know what issues surround this team but to me they look tired. For all the discussion during camp about this being a team with great leadership from the veteran players it is puzzling that it hasn't translated to the playing field. I also think the coaching turnover among the staff has had a lot to do with it. Almost a complete new staff last year and more turnover again this year. Hard to build continuity and develop players. The risk here is that this type of play becomes acceptable and becomes part of the team the culture in future seasons.
