Merrill played a great game, good luck to the Bluejays next week against Kimberly or Pulaski.  I hope Coach T can take them all the way.
 
It was bad enough not having Danczak and Johnson in the lineup, but starting FB Josh Lutz was out with the flu.  The Tigers bench was not deep enough to make up for the loss of these three great playmakers.  Arneson and whoever caught that last TD pass made big plays when needed most.
 
Coach T had a great game plan and his offensive and defensive lines outplayed the Tiger lines.  Sad ending to a great season, but of course only seven teams come away with a Gold Ball.

That's cool for Merrill.  I actually know their coach, he's friends with my uncle.  Gone fishing and stuff with him, pretty cool guy.  Hopefully they keep winning.

I'm proud of these boys from Merrill, I remember when i was on varsity years back, god I'm getting old, but these some of these kids would show up with there dads( some of our coaches) to practice and would throw us passes and etc. I'm sad I wasn't able to be at the game.  Coach T is a great guy and I'm so glad to watch this success come to him and the rest of the team.  I'm one proud Merrill Alum tonight

Ripon's got an explosive RB in Connor Hanson, Big Foot's got an explosive RB in Mike Walker. The difference tonight was that Hanson was never able to get the big run. he had plenty of 10 yard runs but no game changing 50 yarders. Meanwhile all three Big Foot touchdowns came after incredible plays by Walker, including a couple Houdini acts. Walker made some incredible cuts on the FieldTurf.

Couldn't of said it better myself Mike.  Merrill played a great football game tonight and earned there spot in the semifinals.  Marshfield had a very good season and they should hold there heads high.  There are things that happen in a season you can't control, you just have to made due with the cards that your dealt.  Great season for the Tigers and good luck to the Blue Jays next friday and after.  And Welcome back to the WVC next year if the conference play sticks around next year.  I'm sure Marshfield will be waiting for you.

I really have to take my hat off to Badger.  I was at the game last night and I was thoroughly impressed with there determination and discipline.  If Badger had a better kicker we might not be congratulating them on a great season.  Badger missed two extra points, one with about 3 min to play.  Franklin on the other hand was bigger, stronger, and faster.  Before the game started I felt based on schedule and team strength that Franklin was going to blow Badger out.  I was sadly mistaken.  I am sure Franklin fans will tell you that if not for the dropped passes Franklin would have opened this game wide open.  After going to so many games this year I continually find myself wrongfully discounting teams before the game even starts.  I will have to say that after the last two weeks of playoff games I have learned my lesson.  Anything can happen when a team has the heart of a champion.  Congrats to Badger on a great season!

You can't pin that loss on the kicker, on the first missed extra point if you watched the snap rolled to the holder and the kicker had to rush it once the ball was on the tee.  and the extra point that got blocked was kicked a little low but 3 Franklin defensive linemen blew through the badger line.  but yes, badgers team is full of thugs who have heart, good season

Both kicks were blocked, hardly his fault, especially the second one which was practically taken off his foot.

The first kick was the result of a bad snap, but Franklin also deflected it which caused the miss...
