[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 237424, member: 322"] Field Goal Kicking [LIST] [*]Metric: Field Goal Efficiency, the scoring value per field goal attempt earned by the field goal unit as measured against national success rates. The FEI ratings consider distance and take out trash time points which is what must have driven us up high in the rankings. [*]Amazingly good at 13th overall by FEI since Butker was 7 for 11 yielding a 63.6% average. That was bad overall at 104th in the NCAA. [LIST] [*]Butker’s best game was FSU where he was 3-3. He doesn’t make all those and we have a 2-10 season (1-10 against BCS opponents). [*]But the misses were in big games that really screwed us: 2 misses at ND (swirling wind) in an 8-point loss; 1 miss in 3-point loss to Pitt and 1 miss in 6-point loss to UGAg. [URL]http://www.cfbstats.com/2015/team/255/kicking/offense/gamelog.html[/URL] [*]At 11 attempts all year, only 2 of the 128 NCAA D1 teams had fewer attempts all year; Army and Wyoming. [*]Butker was 44 of 45 on EP attempts with the only miss against Alcorn State. [/LIST] [*][U]Future:[/U] I expect CPJ’s MO to stay the same with very few FG attempts this year since we have to keep the D off the field and the O on the field. [LIST] [*] CPJ says he kicked a 60 yarder to end a practice this last week. Distance isn’t his problem. Please don’t run to the right if we are inside the 30 and the next down may be a FG attempt. Butker has had more problems from the right hash and closer in. [*] [B]I expect more of the same inconsistency until Butker does otherwise. He was 61% in 2014.[/B] [/LIST] [/LIST] Punt Return. Pretty good at 21st. Need replacement for Golden who averaged 10.06 yards per return and returned 16 of our 20 punt returns. The other returners (sic) averaged 7.0 yards per return …. so we don’t have a proven returner. I think we should have talent enough especially with a lot of backs healthy this year. Our Kickoff Return. Not good at 72nd. I think our philosophy is we will be happy to take the ball at the 25 and let the offense grind. Don't lose the ball on the return. That can lose the game.
