Georgia Force! Oh so close…

Well after a 15-2 season, the Georgia Force close out their season with their only home loss of the season in the playoffs to the Columbus Destroyers.

Columbus came out fast in the beginning with a good defensive stand, to hold Georgia to a quick four and out.  That was followed by Georgia’s only really shining moment in the first half which was an interception in the end zone, to prevent a Columbus touchdown.  However after that Columbus ran away with the game at half time to put the score at 41 – 21.  Some might think that the game would be over but Georgia found the ”Force” within to tie the game with about six minutes left in the fourth quarter.  And then it was back and fourth, until Columbus’s offense became too much for Georgia to handle, which seemed to be the problem all game.  (Georgia had given up one to many big plays, as well as given up one to many turnovers.)  But it was the third and fourth quarters that made the game enjoyable.  It was also those quarters that reminded you of what Arena Football is supposed to be, which is fast paced!  It seems that TV always ruins the pace of game, and they would slow the game down with TV time-outs.  And that would be my only complaint about the game, that right as you were getting into something they would be at a TV time out, which was dictating the game pace.  

But Becky and I, and a buddy from work went to the game, and I thought that it was pretty good.  Our seats were surprisingly good as seeing that we only paid 14 dollars per ticket.  I would maybe go to another playoff game, or maybe a game that wasn’t televised.  I also thought it was cool how they let the fans go down on the field for autographs after the game.  

 

On our way to the Game! GO Force!

The view from our seats, they were really good, you didn’t miss anything!
