That field goal to tie the game at the end of regulation was worth the scholly. Who dares to disagree???
 
May be a dumb question... but do kickers not get scholarships?
 
Bigger question is did Miss Georgia give him some for making the kick?
 
Can someone gif the kick....with the guys jumping up and down at the goal post
 
The kicks out of the endzone all year were and are worth the scholarship.

Obviously, this one kick was also "worth the scholarship", but of course it's a pretty stupid question. He needs to do better as a placekicker next year in general though.
 
I think this is in reference to the people who got upset when we offered Harrison, despite already having a kicker on scholarship.
 
The kid can miss every kick for the rest of his career and I'll still cheer for him every time he takes the field. Not exaggeration or sarcasm.
 
Van Tiffin kicked one like that to win the game for Bama over Auburn in the mid-80s. I bet he hasn't bought a meal for himself since then.
 
The UGA announcers were listing off all the stats of his FG failures this year (around 40% from longer than 30, career long of 49, blocked kicked earlier, etc.) but they didn't seem to care that he sent every KO into the endzone. He has the leg, just needs to get his head right and the accuracy up.

Best thing about this will be his confidence in the future. If he can hit a 53-yarder in Athens to send it to OT, other kicks shouldn't feel as pressure-packed.

Talk about a game of inches.........that kick was so close to being blocked.
