More on Carroll / Allen

The Southlake Carroll / Allen game on Saturday night (it ended Sunday morning) took a series of events to send the game to overtime and fans from both teams probably feel like their team should have won in regulation.

If you're a Carroll Dragon fan you probably looked on in amazement as Carroll got off a punt from their own endzone that only traveled 16 yards and the officials put one second back on the clock to allow Allen to throw a touchdown pass on the last play in regulation.

If you're an Allen fan you're probably still lamenting the fact that the Eagles drove inside the Carroll 30 yard line on all nine possessions in regulation and piled up 539 total yards of offense, yet only scored 14 points before the last play in regulation.

On a side note, the crowd estimated at 40,000 will move this game in to sixth place on the top ten all-time playoff attendance list.
