After watching the Auggies play st olaf last weekend i think the Auggies will beat the cobbers. Ayrton did not run much, but you could tell that his hamstring was feeling better and lack of running was the game plan for him. I think he will be back to his normal self and pull off a close game at Concordia.

I have no dog in this fight but did anyone else think the pass interference call on UST at the goal line was suspect? 3rd and 10 and the penalty gives Bethel 1st and goal at the 2. Tough call to make in that situation with the db turned and looking for the ball. Others who were there may have had a better view than the online feed.

The play before that a Tom all but gave the BU reciever a wedgie and didn't get a flag. I thought the call for interference was spot on.

Woof.

I sincerely hope the play before had no bearing on that call. That would make it much, much worse.

I just think in a tight game like that you have to make the players make plays to win. I don't think you make either call unless its really, really blatant and I didn't see that from the video.

Show me in a book of football rules where it says that enforcement of the rules change based on how late in a game an infraction occurs.

If its pass interference in the 1st quarter, then its pass interference in the 4th quarter with the game on the line. 

Same argument was made when the Cobbs bench cleared while the ball was still live.  The old "let the players play" line did hold any water then either.

Bethel's stadium has seen many classic games play out over the last 15 years, and this one was as good as any that came before it.  Awesome stuff, and a tremendous effort from both sides!  Hard to imagine any teams better than UST missing out on the playoffs this year, in the event that they do.

Just to be clear, I didn't say anything about it being late in the game, I said "in a tight game". My point was (and still is---I don't care either way) if you don't call the first one(I didn't see that part of the play), don't call the second one. Or visa versa, call them both. Also, call it the same way you have called it all game. If you are letting them play and be physical, then hold your water on that late call, if you have been calling it all game, call it there. I think it's unfair for the kids if the game isn't called consistently and from all accounts, there was (at a minimum) inconsistency on those two plays. My opinion was, and still is, there should not have been a penalty.

Or case of a player getting away with one because an official didn't want to make "that call" and then the very next play the defense does the same exact thing. 

I might pass a cop in my shiny red sports car one day and not get a ticket but then the next day he tags me for going the same speed.  If I got a break in one instance maybe I should learn my lesson?

I agree that the situation of the game should not determine the call. The rules of the game should not be bent because it is a close game. If that is a play they have allowed all game than its not a penalty, but if it is something that has been a penalty earlier than it has to be called.

Final for Augsburg

51-17 Auggies

Did they do it in the air?  I'm really worried about air attacks. The Johnnie secondary was not slick. Running is a bit harder to run up the score.

4 rushing touchdowns and 2 passing.
They were very balanced. 297 yards passing and 251 yards rushing.
