Steve I don't want to assume things I don't know, but it appeared that 1139 just got high centered on the ramp and could not move. as mentioned they were not disabled for the first 15 seconds of the infraction. The penalty points were not assessed and when I questioned a referee they told me a robot was disabled. A robot cannot be disabled if they are moving freely. Also, the teams were clearly playing defense with no team even attempting to return to onsides.

I'm not posting this to rag on anyone, just simply stating what went on. I too like my senior drivers am very disheartened about this match. I understand things happen and the refs. are volunteers so I am not blaming them, but for times like this there needs to be some sort of instant replay.
