3/6/2010 LSU 2 @ Texas A&M 2

After the friday night Katy v. STHS barnburner, I traveled up with two fellow referees for the LSU v. Texas A&M game to AR - as this is effectively the first d1 champ match. The first game was a frusturating affair with the referee, lots of penalties and only 1 try.

I took the whistle for the 2nd side match. 70-80 degree conditions, light wind - we played 2 30 minute periods.

A&M 2: 4 Tries, 2 Conversions (24)
LSU 2: 4 Tries, 1 Conversion (22)

Notes:

two YC for dangerous play. One high tackle, one for a bit of handbags. A bit of spill over from the first game? perhaps.

played a line out not straight advantage when ball went wayyyyy backwards and the team made an error. The ball then got spread wide and the opposition only gained territory, not possession. I called advantage over...probably the wrong decision.

I was quite sore for this game, after the game the night before.

to end the game we had a period of 3 minutes with no stoppages (kicks back and forth), LSU eventually ending with a try.

tackle law went really well in this match
