As the user name states, I'm from South GA.
--GHSA did away with "protests" before the start of last season. There is nothing the GHSA can do.
--The GHSA follows the NFHS "untimed down" procedures. So the paper stating that a game cannot end on a defensive penalty is incorrect. I'll email the author if I can find it. However, the game SHOULD have been terminated because the illegal forward pass carries a LOD.
--We've all screwed up before. Unfortunately, these errors are becoming far too common throughout the state. We're required to attend a rules meeting, take a closed book rules test (granted, we haven't taken ours yet), meet with your crew/family at least 10 hours (I think) and take an open book rules and mechanics test with your crew. I just fail to see how you can do all this, and get this rule wrong. Oh well.
