Not making this post as a knock on Potter, but from a


Oct 31, 2021, 7:20 PM

historical perspective. When was the last time, if ever, that our field goal kicker missed on 3 of 4 attempts?

The whole game yesterday seemed like Spooky Halloween, and the field goal aspect was the most unexpected part of it, to me. Half expected Dabo to echo that Tommy Bowden moment from years ago, "We ain't kicking no more!"

I don't believe Potter was originally brought in as a fg kicker. He was intended more as a kickoff specialist. I could be wrong, but his kickoffs are 2nd to none!

I don't think that's right!***

You are wrong on the first part of your post, but right on the last. BT has always been looked at as a fg kicker.

No he was definitely one of the top rated FG guys in the country. Like top 3 I believe. I want to say he was a good punter in HS too.

Potter is the reason we have won the games we have this year.


Oct 31, 2021, 7:55 PM

I wonder if he let that pressure get to him yesterday.

Just like getting the yips with the putter. You think you're going to miss and it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.
He will get it out of his system this week.

It was a shocker for Potter who has been reliable and our top scorer. Anyone can have an off day.

With all the issues on this team I would have to say that the kicking game is the very last thing to worry about. Just an off day for a kicker that has been very reliable and will bounce back. As for the right side of the offensive line.....geez, can Mitchell Mayes and Tchio possibly be any worse than the current lineup? I'll have to see it to believe it.

Way , others another , goal post flags a 3rd direction. I think that played a part whether actually or mentally thinking he had to adjust. I think he said on the last shorter kick that his foot simply got stuck in the turf.

Pople need to lay off B.T.
His reason for being there is turn other people's errors into some points on the scoreboard.
He is called on in a situation created by someone not throwing the ball accurately or catching the ball or making a block or whatever. Yet let him miss a kick and people want to hang him.

I think most of our recent greats have at least had one or two pretty bad games in their career. Potter struggled his freshman year and early sop I believe but has been All American caliber since.
