For that ball to get pulled that far to the left simply due to the wind it would have had to be dang near a hurricane type wind. He just flat out missed. It wasn't like the ball started off going toward the goal post. The two he missed were never even close from the get go.
Not saying that he was totally on point but the wind had a huge effect on the endzone that we were going towards in the 1st and 3rd. The 1st kick was affected by the wind, the second one not so much.
It didn't appear to me the two he missed were ever on line to be good from the start. So wind or no wind. He was going to miss them.
My thoughts exactly,I bowled and bowled a 300 after 3 yrs then moved with my job haven't done it since.But to me there kind of one in the same leg ,arm swing, timing, you cross your body with your arm your going left same with the leg, where you make contact with the lane or the football, its all muscle memory.Lanes have different oil patterns,you kick from different positions on the field, you make adjustments.

I only have game time memory and I won't watch it for a while again so you may be right. The wind was a factor in the the game this I do know. I think our kicking game needs to improve in field goals and kick coverage regardless of the wind and Scott needs to stay the course he is on
I think we miss AJ holding, as well, as at QB. It looked to me like the hold was not clean on both of those.

If Blake had thrown the ball away instead of taking another loss, his chances may have been better.
tough to compare fg kicking to high school because in college the goal posts are not as wide as high school. the transition from high school to college and kicking fg's is more mental IMO than physical.
