Hard to see Bama winning a championship without a kicker

Seriously.
You are going to need those points sooner or later. Probably sooner.

Saban has nobody to blame but himself. Why he didn't recruit a kicker for the 2015 class, I'll never understand. Griffith has health problems, and I get that, but we wouldn't put a QB out there who couldn't complete more than 1/3 of his passes because of some shoulder injury.

Our ability to back into shitty placekicking is mindblowing. There's just no way to explain it. You would think it would've become a priority after the 2011 LSU game.

Look at this way, we don't have to worry about Saban trying a last second 45 yard attempt to be ran back for a TD

Or a decent QB

I hope the lack of a confident kicker does not cost them a game. The dude coming in next year has some promise.

We haven't many losses in the past few years, but several of these have been directly contributed to losses.
Namely :
2013- Auburn. Not only the last kick, but earlier in the 4th, we go for it on 4th down in a chip shot FG range. And fail to make the 1st down.
2011 - LSU. Missed 12 FG attempts. Made 2.
I may be off on those numbers, my memory escapes me.
2014 Ole Miss - missed 2 FGs. Lose by 6.
Just to name a few. Not to mention morale killers of not getting points after a long drive.
Short kickoffs for longer returns, etc.

UF won the nc in 2006-07 season with a horrible kicker.
