re: Aggie kicker misses chip shot to lose game for Cincy

Just curious...how does the kicker lose a game that a team was trailing before the drive started and the kick would've only tied it?

What, you haven't heard? If Burrow is your starter, a FG is worth 4 points now.

It’s simple math. If you are down 2 and he makes it, the kicker has won the game. Down three and he makes it, the kicker has tied the game and given you a chance to win.

A miss in those situations means that he has ensured your team loses the game.

I feel like a Bama fan should know all about kickers.
