re: Arkansas: Did Bert sacrifice this season just to redshirt a kicker?

No, Henson was the kicker that had two extra points blocked (mostly not his fault) but did miss a field goal badly (not a good snap on that one either.)

Fain had been kicking off all year, and was our designated 40+ yd field goal kicker. Evidently he has the strongest leg currently, but must have not been the most accurate during preseason.

Hedlund will be fine, he just struggled with the transition and a year to strengthen leg will do wonders. Not a wasted scholly, will still get 4 good years out of him I believe.
