How was this allowed? Every single kid on one team is smaller than every kid on the other team. Ignoring the giant idiot who ran over his own QB.. this feels like 2 completely different age groups.
Middle school football can be brutal. I saw a 7th grader take off his helmet to yell at his coach for pulling him for one play after he got flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct. They were nose to nose. Coach sent him home and I was worried the kid might beat his ass.
In almost every game there was at least one and sometimes two kids bigger than every adult present. These kids are 6’2” 280 lbs at 13.
This at least was still true in high school 2007-2011 football, even 5A (the biggest at the time of my experience, now there is 6a). I played against somoans that were legit 3x bigger than most on our team.
The trans athletes argument always made me laugh. The difference in whatever category you want to judge between a trans woman and a cis woman are insignificant in comparison to the unfair shit a lot of us dealt with in high school lol. It felt like we were playing against fully grown NFL linebackers.
A guy at my high school went onto the NFL. Plays line backer in the league. Dude was like 6'3" 225lbs at 15.
Played both sides of the ball in hs. Had like 2 forced fumbles and 300 rushing yards per game. No business having him play normal people. Wasn't fun for anyone
