Missed fgs here and there you blame the kicker. Missed fgs and PATs on this scale are a fundamental coaching problem. The fake punts are cool. Maybe spend 5 more minutes with your kickers

worse part is seeing the special teams guys laughing after their eff ups. Still can't get over Buchner laughing after the botched kick vs A&M.

Don’t get me started!

Those replays of the misses. They’re all missed right. And it seems like his plant leg is really far from the ball resulting in having to reach for the kick.

Could be a simple fix of telling the kicker to plant closer to the ball. But idkkk

I make the motion to hire you as a kicking assistant.

The other common thread is Buchner as holder. I’m not seeing him fuck anything up but it also wouldn’t surprise me if he was.

Does Biagi have a twitter account?

Maybe hire a kicking game guy specific to the kicking.

It's turning into a huge head thing for all of the fuckers.

Not one of them has any confidence at all

I don’t hate our game plan on D. They can’t run the ball, and James is almost certainly going to make a mistake. Moore should have had a pick right there.

 

[T-Boone]

I am surprised there hasnt been an ND kick off out of bounds yet today.

What does that mean?

You make a kicker better at kicking?

Special Teams coaches don't teach kickers how to kick better... they coordinate the special teams

Seems like a problem with picking kickers to me.

Maybe hire a kicking game guy specific to the kicking.

Maybe find kids who can kick. This isn't super complicated

 

[irishff1014]

I know these motherfjers aren’t laughing on the sideline !!!!

I hope this gets shown to freeman. They would run until they got sick on Monday.

I can't argue with that at all 😂

Just pulled up Brandon Walker on College Football Reference because we all remember how awful he was. 55% lifetime kicker over two seasons. Know what his extra point stats were? 61 for 62. Even the most recent standard for bad ND kickers blows this crew out of the water

 

[IrelandIrish]

All we have to do Is win these announcers saying everyone predicted a close game need to be fired with our kicking team.

 

[MacIrish75]

Guys @Jeffwantpoppers wants you to know this is normal for a playoff team.

 

[IrishBoognish]

Exactly

 

[WildMan1]

The problem now is we’re almost certainly not going to get the win we needed & could potentially lose.

So it’s now a lose/lose game.

The only saving grace is a 14-0 or better 4th qt for ND

Exactly

The problem is the game should've been over an hour and a half ago

 

[Irishnuke]

Why didn't we go for 2 there in the first place to make it a 2 score game?

 

[PolishDomer]

what the hell is going on? Is Tyrone Willingham coaching today?

 

[NDMatt91]

Mentally weak team

 

[Pete]

What the fuck. He’s literally over the damn ball. How the hell does he jump

 

[IrelandIrish]

With contact?

 

[rtrn2glory]

Couldn't be more of an undisciplined team in America

 

[thekid33]

JFC we are so undisciplined

 

[irishff1014]

This team has 0 discipline

 

[rtrn2glory]

This is legit a 2012 type of game

 

[MacIrish75]

What the fuck?

These officials are nuts lol

There are plenty of fundamentals that the coach can tweak. Plant foot, follow through, timing etc. It can also be the holder, the snapper, a variety of issues. Besides the whole operation being a failure, kickers are head cases. The way this has been handled has not been conducive
