🏈 How about our Aussie Punter holding for the extra points/field goals!

[Secondand26]

Bet when he signed up for punting, that never crossed his mind.
Something we take for granted, but his routine holds at the end of the game & in overtime were VERY important!
One bobble & we were dead!

@TerryP has pointed to it all year and in years past. The amount of time or lack/limited amount of practice time for a QB to hold is a decision that CNS refuses to budge and finally he did!!!

*Also cannot describe how proud I am of Reichard making those kicks!

LSU game started the post again but I felt it was a beaten horse after that game.

 

[It Takes Eleven]

Yep, he did a good job holding, and Will did a great job kicking.

However, we didn't have to go all the way down under to get a punter averaging 36-37 yards a kick. The kid from Prattville can do that. He hurt us on some short punts yesterday.

I was thinking Tyson was the holder? Yes! He may be an Aussie but he the whitener one I have seen! he mush not be a Rugby player?

Yes he WAS. But after he bobbled that long snap for an attempted FG, he got yanked!

Yep...he benched Bear Bryants Great gran son....

Who would have ever thoight...

Bet that boy is in the portal soon

I was surprised that Tyson was pulled so quick. As for the Aussie holding, punters do it all the time in practice - not only as a holder behind the holder but because if a QB is the regular holder, they don’t practice with the kickers except for kicking periods in the practice schedule.

I know what you are saying. However, after the 2 bad holds in the previous games, and the bad hold on the FG attempt in this game, I would have gladly sent Elon Musk to Mars to get a holder for the holds in this game!

 

[EasyTider]

Good job holding but he can’t punt worth a .

Ok. 38. If no return
And punter that does 44 with no return

Thats 6 yards. No even a first down

I look at efficiency rather than yards

I felt a little bad for Tyson but you can't have that type of thing happen - especially at times like that - and expect to keep your job. I would be shocked if he isn't at Jacksonville State or something next year.

Yeah but almost all of his punts are VERY returnable.

It all depends on where you’re punting from. Punt from your own 45 and you’re in good shape. Punt from your 20 and you suck.

Ok. Just talking about efficiency

But still. 6 yards. But efficient punts are best

Yeah. He aint the greatest

Amen to this. Not that I doubted him, but I could only think of all the past missed ones from other kickers that hurt us during the time he was getting ready to kick. He was stone cold, and I love it!

 

[Rolltide24]

One punt was fielded at the first down market. That’s sad… And yes, I know we’d had some penalties leading to the punt that had us backed up a good bit, but a punt should always clear the line to gain.

And the way things were going....
I could see a "donk" off the upright
