Fish got a bad case of cat scratch fever tonight. Think the Tarpons wore out their mojo in too many OTs last week.
Scrip was to start fast and hope to get them into their penalty, undisciplined phase. But their QB was razor-sharp early and scored on two plays first drive. Tarpons answered and drove right down the field on one of their best rushing drives this season to tie it.
At that point, it looked like anybody's game until the Tiger QB threw another lazar on a crossing route to the house on the first play. So two TDs on 3 offensive plays, we had no answer for #8 WR, and it was kind of on after that.
I'm not sure what I was thinking, hoping we had a chance - that dawned on me after seeing Palmetto again in person. Boy, do they past the eye test around our guys. Good looking team, fast - and the grass was cut short to accommodate that speed.
We had some deficiencies this season, and this team really exceeded my expectations. I had them at 6-4 out of the playoffs. They played their best ball the last two weeks, just couldn't find their game tonight.
Congrats Palmetto.
