This year we had a JV game (10 minute quarters) in the pregame the visiting coach told us, "If we run the ball it was an accident."

They received the opening kickoff and punted after 3 incomplete passes with the punt returned for a touchdown at 9:41 on the clock...

Insuing kickoff ran two plays, one of them complete and then threw an interception which was returned for a touchdown at 9:00 on the clock...

Insuing kickoff two incomplete passes, a free first down on a roughing the passer penalty, three more incomplete passes and then a blocked punt. Home team took their first snap around the B19 and ran in for a touchdown at 8:21.

NE uses a running clock when a team is ahead by 35 points in the second half. The game started at 6:30 and halftime was at 8:15. Got back in the car after the game at 9:30.


Last game of the regular season was a 9th grade Tuesday afternoon thriller. 8 minute quarters, spent the entire 2nd quarter inside the 20 on one side of the field. Including 7 downs with a flag in a row. The game was under 2 hours, but the 2nd quarter was a real joy to work.
