re: UGA and Stanford mistake was

Imagine those kickers missing chip shot field goals. Very unlike the famous Gump kicker who couldn't make 52- and 50-yarders and was castigated by the Gump fans! Very unlike a Gump line not being able to prevent an LSU lineman from blocking another field goal attempt! The real difference is that the coaches of these other teams knew their kicker was capable of making the field goals they missed, whereas Lord Saban knew his kicker could not kick 52-yard field goals on a consistent basis. It's all on the coach!
