    I read last week that he has the highest FG% in UW history. It sure seems like he misses a shit ton of kicks.

    Buy his ass a one way ticket back to Sultan or wherever fucking backwater he's from.

    Historical college football comparisons are pretty bad since the game has changed so much.

    I bet a pretty high percentage of current kickers have the highest FG% in their program's history.

    Like Browning, he racks up his stats in games that are just a little easier - oregon state, wazzu, miss st., Portland, Rutgers, etc etc.

    Until our guys can produce clutch performances against the top tier, we will remain among the middle tier.

    Was 83% in 2014
    Was 80% in 2015
    Is 50% for 2016

    Career is 39/50 for 78%

    He's missed plenty in critical situations (USC and Boise State last year, Arizona 2014 and 2016) but seems to do fine in blowout wins and blowout losses.

    I'm sure he's happy to never kick at Arizona again ...

    I don't think he's a shit kicker ... but no question that he tightens up in close games.

    As some doogs blasted me for saying last night, making field goals in easier games (like throwing accurate TD passes in easier games) does not make you a winner.

    A kicker that tightens up in close games is a shit kicker.
    Our whole fucking team tightens up in close games. Have you noticed?

    It's not just the kicker.
    Disagree: Lavon Coleman made a huge splash. John Ross and Dante Pettis made clutch plays.

    I'd have to Re-watch to see if Gaines and Qualls did their jobs. Rest of the defense should be embarrassed, particularly the LBs.

    p-salm fire twirler should be sent packing.
    Bullshit. Lavon was the only guy who made key plays last night. Everyone else's nuts shriveled when it was on the line (see @Tequilla's comment).

    Jakey B shit himself, Vita shit himself. Kev King shit himself. Budda shit himself (and I think Budda is a winner in general).

    So get the fuck out of here with that bullshit.

    CVW shit himself because our whole fucking team did. He's not special. Calm the fuck down.

    I know you wanted a 84 point victory over a shit team, but if you come back to reality land for a fucking second you might appreciate the fact that we never win games like this and a win is a fucking win.

    The #1 task of any coach since the 2001 Holiday bowl is to turn us into a team that thinks we can win. We've had 15 years of being losers.

    Our whole fucking team shut down. We could not get up by 2 scores and we could not stop them when they needed to score. How is CVW doing anything different than anyone else?

    Fuck off with this shit.

    That's what shit kickers do.
