Hupernikomen Posted December 1, 2007 Report Posted December 1, 2007 yesSaw the 2nd half..someone update us on what happened the first half.2nd half neither team could move the ball very well. Newton held Tatum at the goal line to have one last shot. Hit an open receiver who was chased down or they would have won. They did give up 2 safeties..both were bad snaps over the head of the punter.
NedDog Posted December 1, 2007 Report Posted December 1, 2007 Wow, I must say, I am shocked. Congrats to the Eagles on a fantastic season and another deep run in the playoffs. There is no doubt that y'all will be back next year to challenge for the state title yet again. Congrats again on another great season!
Bucster Posted December 1, 2007 Report Posted December 1, 2007 Congrats Newton on a great season. Looks like ya'll played Tatum a tough game.
BroncoFan1 Posted December 1, 2007 Report Posted December 1, 2007 Congrats to Jim Ed Hughes and the entire Newton team for a great season. Your friends from Dayton were pulling for you!
24 over par Posted December 1, 2007 Report Posted December 1, 2007 newton shoved the ball down tatums throat for a quarter and then decided to pass and except for the long pass near the end never really moved the balll again,they seemed to give up running the ball and it was working

Even at the end of the game after the long pass reception for Newton, Tatum was still in a stretch or prevent type defense, 1:29 left, you still had time from the 28-30 yd line to run a couple of times. Just my opinion. Great season for Newton, I wish I was going next week to watch ya'll play again.
24 over par Posted December 2, 2007 Report Posted December 2, 2007 easy to second guess but i wished newton would have ran on first down after the long completion
Bucof2010 Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 I wasthinkingthe samethinglove ur screen name big guy ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Guest Hatchet Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 Great game. Remember SPECIAL TEAMS won this game for Tatum. Touchdown on fake punt, score after a fumbled punt, 2 safeties on snaps over the punter's head. Great season for Newton. Tatum should go on and win it all. Tatum lb/rb is a STUD!
GoBucs07 Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 i was really pullin for newton to win this game, and i think they deserved to win it as well. but you can make those big mistakes in the playoff ecspecially against a team like tatum. but great season newton, just rebuild and be a powerhouse again next year.
BUNA95 Posted December 3, 2007 Report Posted December 3, 2007 I said the winner of this game would win state. Lets see if my prediction comes true.
NOTWEN Posted December 4, 2007 Report Posted December 4, 2007 Second year in a row a fake punt put us out of the playoffs. u guys remember what marlin did to us last year. we need to work on that. there is a weakness that everyone sees
BigB BigD Posted December 4, 2007 Report Posted December 4, 2007 There was no containment on the punt/punt return......The entire left side of the defense was trying for the block and Tatum released the entire right side of its line like a screen. I wish like others have said, that they would have run the ball from the 20 yard line having 1 timeout and approx 1:30 left on the clock.....if so we would be gearing up for the next round and probably and eventual championship. Tatum was good, no doubt. Newton stopped their offense almost completely with most of their scoring coming from trick plays, defense and special teams. Tatum should go on and win it all.
