oh and did you forget its the 3rd string kicker that was kicking ....
Makes my point even more. A 3rd string soccer player deciding a game!
And yes, I should have added Beemer's decision to go for the fake punt as another reason for the loss. And he called TO before the fake and basically alerted Michigan who kept their 1st string D in!
But the real tragedy of this game was reversing that awesome catch by the same guy who didn't pick up the first down on the fake punt. VT outplayed Michigan but kept finding ways to screw up that game.

As much as I hate FG`s, I don't see they problem with them.
Your average field position (in college) is about the 30 yard line. Move the ball 45 yards and you are almost guaranteed 3 points (for most teams). Move the ball another 25 yards and you add 4 points (to what was "almost guaranteed"). Miss and they other team gets the ball.
So when it's 4th down and 2 from the 30 yard line, after your team moved about 40 yards already, you can take the 3 points, which you will only get about 50% of the time in college, or you can go for it and GUARANTEE yourself 3 points with a shot at 4 more.
In the NFL, they would punt on 4th and 1 from ANYWHERE on the field. You see 18 yard shits when going for it can get you 7 points and missing would awkwardly pin the other team inside their 5.
Imagine if you eliminated FG's, now you automatically have 4 downs and can get 0 points after marching down the to the 10 yard line.
I wonder how that would affect betting lines ? No FG. TD = 7 points automatic, unless you wanna "go for it" and make it 8. No XP's. Punts and kickoffs still in the game as a return for a score can still be made possible.Only 7 point scores (the majority of the time). Then there would be no need to ever "go for the 8". Will all lines be set at multiples of 7 ?
