You absolutely have to decline that penalty and take the down. I know Bradley is a good coach, but for the love of God, what was he thinking there? It literally meant the difference in Heritage getting the ball back with 30 seconds compared to 1 minute, assuming Heritage stops them, and of course, Hopewell converted the pass on 4th down, but still, it doesn't mean the decision was a good one. That was an absolute HUGE mistake by the Heritage coaching staff, but the staff there is very, very solid and they have a very good Head Coach, but sometimes, even coaches make mistakes.
Why on God's Green Earth Did Bradley take the penalty with 2 minutes left?

- Start date
He might have been to busy doing chest bumps with his players
He couldn't chest bump anyone past 4th grade...
That was not the worst call. At the end of the first half they go to the air with 30 or so seconds left. Hopewell picks it off and takes it to the house. Making it 20-0. That was the deciding score. Why not run it there and go in the half 13-0.
Great win for Hopewell. Congrats on a fantastic season to both school
the game are full of may b's or what if's but the bottom line is coaches make calls some good some bad but that's part of the game it they had won one would question the calls.
You are exactly right. Any given game has to many twist and turns to ever blame one call or one play. People will always do it, but it's just no logical.
