And if Lisbon had punted and Harvey had driven 80 yards and gotten it then he would be the goat for not going for the first because everyone would say they would have gotten it. I think any call he would have made there would have been the right one.
Velva will probly be up there again next year. Not? They are returning alot of players right?

If a qb throws a pick in the last couple minutes of a game, its his fault they lost because as fans thats the last thing you remember, but maybe a wr dropped a td earlier in the game.
Ok lets not forget the phantom pass interference call on #10 from harvey earlier in the game. Or lets not forget that Lisbon had the ball inside the 5 yard line earlier in the game and did not convert a score. Even if they would've kicked a fg on the 4th and goal earlier in the game, it would've been no more than an extra point (in terms of distance) and plus now their up by 7 when it comes to the end of the game. According to Lisbon's coach, when they interviewed him at halftime they said they have a good fg kicker. I'm not trying to second guess any of the coach's decisions, what I'm just trying to say is, even if Lisbon's qb picked up the first down at the end of the game, that call wasn't the only decision that affected the games outcome. It was a heck of a game and give credit to both teams for battling. As a fan of class A football don't take anything away from either teams because of what fans believe was the one call that decided the game. Like what other people were saying do you think it was easy for harvey to go down and score 55 yds in 90 seconds. Give credit and move on and take nothing away from the teams, it was a great game.
