Highland (Idaho) had four touchdowns called back because of penalties Friday night against Judge Memorial at Granite High.

It was a good thing for them that seven others counted.

The Rams from Pocatello rolled the Bulldogs 49-10 in a shellacking that featured poised, precise quarterback play from Highland's Tanner Nielson. The junior was 14-19 for 216 yards and two touchdowns--in the first half--as Highland jumped out to a 28-3 halftime lead.

Nielson added another 70 yards and a touchdown in the second half but his services went unused for the entire fourth quarter. Highland set the tone on the game's opening drive, covering 82 yards in three plays and one minute and 24 seconds. A 75-yard touchdown pass to Joseph Rasmussen capped off the drive and blazed Highland's trail to an easy win.

"We gotta find a defense," Judge coach James Cordova said. "We're pretty good against straight away runs but not a spread attack and that's the modern game."

Judge was scorched by Ogden's Nik Allred for more than 300 total yards last week and again had no answer for the opposing quarterback. But even on the ground, the Rams seemed unstoppable. They out-gained the Bulldogs 449 total yards to 186. Judge did find some life in the third quarter when Highland spotted the Bulldogs 30 yards in personal foul penalties. Judge capitalized when James Delacenserie hooked up with Paul Clark from 15 yards out to cut the Ram lead to 35-10.
