Kilgore High School running back Rayshaun Williams (8, center) runs through a gaping hole in Gilmer's "Black Flag" defense Friday night at Jeff Traylor Stadium in Gilmer. In a shootout that came down to the final seconds, it was the Buckeyes that wound up pulling out a 24-22 win. But not without some controversy: another KHS back, Isaiah Watters, went down with 20 seconds left on the clock, and the clock was allowed to keep running until officials finally blew the play dead with six seconds left. Officials called for a 10-second run-off -- there was less than 10 seconds left on the game clock, which meant the game was over. But if Watters was down with 20 seconds left, wouldn't there have been time left on the clock for Kilgore to run another play, even with the 10-second run-off? (Photo by DENNIS JACOBS - ETBLITZ.COM)
