Adam Griffith.

Knowing Bama's luck with kickers, and since his college career was a little below expectations, I wouldn't be surprised if he went to the NFL and had a Adam Venateiri type career, and make me head scratch for years.

Plus, it would be a plus for AU fans, for they'd probably show the kick 6 every time Griffith lined up for a FG, especially any one around 57 yards.

get real dude

Griffith hit 69.5% of his field goals in college. He'd be lucky to make it past camps to the preseason, and if he did it'd be as a kickoff specialist.

For comparison Vinateri is 84.3% over 21 NFL seasons.

Daniel Carlson is 83.1% in his Auburn career (86.4% over the last 2 years) and never missed an XP. That's what a future NFL kicker looks like in college
