I was ready to turn the page on him and move on after he made all his PATs against Bama (figured he would choke there if anywhere early this year), but he did well. Then SMU happened


he's got the yips. You can tell because the way he missed the first one was the exact way he missed the second. Kicking is a lot like putting. It's really not very hard. There aren't a lot of mechanics to get right. But some people just get the yips. It's in his head, not his ability. That's hard to fix because he probably does it right time after time in practice. Honestly, Bertolet has all the makings of an elite kicker.

Btw, equally disturbing to me is how much trouble Kaser is having holding. He's fumbled like 3 holds this year. One I think Bertolet made anyway but that's not helping.

This.

Bertolet is so frustrating because he clearly has real ability. His misses are usually even pretty kicks, he just hits the the wrong direction. He has a huge leg and the ball is always up high and end over end just how you want it, it's just like he gets up to an extra point and aims to the side.

I feel for the kid, he probably has an NFL leg but he just can't get straight between the ears.
