I just don’t get it…I mean everyone has said it, but when the NFL has 25 guys that hit 50 yarders as chip shots, how does the #2 college team have a kicker who isn’t reliable past 40

Maybe some tempo this drive?

Insert must be nice to have a kicker comment

He went 1/4 last game so it sucks that he made this one.

 

[Nati-Toledo Bucks]

Would love to score quick. Need 7 regardless but this game is flying by

 

[lvbuckeye]

Yeah I think it’s more people seeing NFL kicking at an all time high with a handful of college kickers hitting some bombs. Has convinced people that they’re much worse than they used to be.

The NFL changed the rules this year, which now allows the kickers to use old balls.

That DOES NOT excuse Ryan Day from not having a competent college kicker, which have been allowed to use old balls since freaking forever.

This drive is going to tell us a lot...

Well that efficiency has to be perfect now. Time is ticking. Already almost 4th quarter on the season.

Has to be a TD. Then maybe hold to a FG. And a final TD to win.

I’d be ok with more than 2 more possessions.

Of course, they all need to end with points.

 

[BuckeyesGunn]

When we win this, it will be due to the defense making a tremendous play, or four.

 

[System_id]

Sure would like a deep bomb to Smith or Tate.

Everything, probably. TD and down 3 midway through the 4th. Asses Pucker. Otherwise…

agreed. Time just seems to tick vs this team. We look up and minutes are gone. Offense has no margin for error now.

This drive is going to tell us a lot...

Let’s hope the OC from that last drive keeps kicking it

 

[youra6]

Man wish we had just fumbled the ball at the EZ instead of that pick 6

He went 1/4 last game so it sucks that he made this one.

I should have used the sarcasm font … my bad

We could get some from SIMV’s aunt, I think.
