u forget about leaving 3 on the field bc eric didn't feel like cj could kick a 30 or 40ish yder?

new sign at the alerus?

home of the 12th man

home of the 29 yard punt

home of the missed extra point

Did not forget about it.  What would you have thought if the converted the 4th down and go on to score a TD?  7>3.  

Don't get me wrong we need better out of our FG Kicker, but there was plenty of blame to go around including our QB.  The 1/2 half of the MT game was his worse 1/2 this year.  Better QB play we win that game by double digits.  We needed someone to made a play.

converted?  hell yeah...win the game....but when 1/3 of your team is constantly letting the other 2/3 down....

putting a kicker in a game...freshman or not is the easiest thing ever...no schemes....just rythmn and kick.

define "hurt"....we lost by 1 point=chipshot extra point.

I think we are on the same wave length, I've wanted them to try the 2 other kickers starting last year, I mean what's the worst thing that can happen we miss a point after and loose by 1. Just have the other kickers do the point after and CJ do the FG.

But we would have been up by 4 with the made extra point and fg at 1/2 time instead of only up by 1

Im just trying to appease the folks here who think coaching has anything to do with Kicking its the only position that is independent from everything else as long as you block correctly.

We were up 9 at 1/2 time.  Would have been 13 with FG an xtra point or 17 with xtra point and TD instead of FG.  This is all assuming the rest of the half plays out the same.

I just think it is too simple to blame the loss on CJ when a number of other things went wrong.

Spot hold a ball on the 32 (42 yd FG) with that three-legged holder-ka-thingy. 

Now kick it through. 

 

Now do it with your short ton* of humanity trying to stave off their long ton** of vile, snarling, taunting, hissing, humanity trying to snap your foot off your leg at the ankle. 

*9 guys
**11 guys

So the snap and hold mean nothing?

They should never be talked about. If they are needs to be fixed immediately.

Very easy to complain about because it happened it changes everything. Im not asking for the world here just for the coaches to make a change to one of our 2 very highly recruited kickers.
