Dateline: Oklahoma.
A game in Spencer, Oklahoma was terminated by referees when a 55-0 blowout turned into something resembling the Miami-Florida International farce from a number of years back in the Orange Bowl stadium.
Star Spencer, whose team was leading less than halfway into the third quarter, had a player tackled "hard" -- no word on dirty, just hard, along the other team's (SeeWorth Academy) sideline.
Next thing you know, you get the scrum.
Next thing you know, swinging helmets.
Word is the blowout had been "spirited", so you had to think it was going to blow up. When it did, five players got tossed and, taking one look at the incident and one at the scoreboard, the referees did the right thing and ended the game then and there.
No word on whether the score will stand, and the investigation will begin once video is procured by the state association.
