That's a bogus call. Refs should be ashamed. You can't call that a flag after the Hail Mary
Smith played like underclassmen but never quit. Their future is bright. What a huge improvement over last year. They have a bright future.

Would JM have gone for the tie if that penalty hadn’t been called? That pushed the xpt back far enough to be iffy?
Both touchdown celebration penalties were bogus for O/S and J/M in the final min/sec were bs. It’s the state championship, final moments let it go! Ruined a great game/finish.
Anyone know what the kid or kids did which caused the excessive celebration penalty to be called?
And where was the officiating crew from? I'm guessing Richmond?

OS spun the ball and danced in EZ. JM outside team box, one or two players, okay, 5+ its a penalty. You get those calls Week 2, why not Week 15?
Yes.
(And I hated both calls…)
I didn’t see anything on both calls when Smith scored and when Madison scored, must of been something someone said, but nothing out of the ordinary from any other td celebration that I seen all day.
I rarely ever complain about the refs, but in a state title game between 2 undefeated teams leaving it all on the field, there's no way either call should have been made. Not against Smith, and definitely not on the last play of the game on one of the best Hail Mary plays I've ever seen. Instead of everyone talking about that play and the potential OT, here we are discussing how the refs made it about themselves and ruined what was otherwise a great championship game
