We Got It Right

I had a game at my favorite site last night.  Not only do they provide us with a spacious place to get dressed, but they also give us fantastic hamburgers and Gatorade at halftime.  And on top of that, the school put in a new artificial turf field last year that, compared to their last field, is like walking in a bouncy house it's so soft.

At one point we had this play happen:

4th and many yards to go for the Visitors.
The snap went over the punter's head and he went chasing after the ball.
After securing possession, and being pursued around the field, he managed to get a kick off.
The kick was about two feet off the ground and traveled about seven yards.
The Home team tried to recover, but muffed it.
The Visitors also muffed it.
Then the Home team muffed it again.
The Visitors finally ended up in possession with the ball.

After the dust (or rubber pellets in this case) had settled, we had one of those very long conferences in the middle of the field with the entire crew.  Let's just say we weren't talking about those bacon cheeseburgers.

Who touched the ball?  Where did they touch the ball?  Who ended up with the ball and where?

After figuring all that out . . . Visitors ball 1st and 10.  And one unhappy Home coach.

But we got it right, and that's a very good feeling.

What did you know, and when did you know it?
