I think he missed one from 50+ and made the rest.

It feels like it's going to have to be 4th and 20 or the end of the half/winning kick for Sarkisian to even attempt one from that distance.

Not sure if mentioned in here yet but after Brooks went out, Jackson Christian moved to RT.

Yeah, Gerry mentioned that in their podcast.

Too early to be conclusive, but not too early to be interesting. 

I do think we're a bit behind in numbers on the OL. Especially tackle. Early on in this cycle I drank the kool-aid and thought we'd be bringing in a 5 or even 6 person class filled with 4 and 5 star studs from across the country ("we're getting errybody!"). I'm hoping for some flips prior to signing day. We've refrained from going to the portal for OL so far. I wonder if that changes this year.

DeAndre Moore at punt returner has me nervous for a variety of reasons. IT mentioned he muffed one today.

Ryan Niblett also has me nervous for completely different reasons, mainly the fact that we’ve seen the dude do very little on a football field besides move positions about every 3 months.

You made it through a season of Silas Bolden fielding punts. Whoever is back there this year is going to drop the pucker factor several notches simply by not being Silas Bolden. I understand having worries about turning the ball over with muffed punts, but that's going to be a risk regardless. If I could rank the points of emphasis in terms of positions we need to win this year to reach our goals, there's a good chance punt returns would rank last on that list. Just catch the ball. Anything beyond that is golden.

I disagree. For as limited tape there is on Ryan, he flashes constantly. He almost killed a Michigan DE as a lead blocker. His jet sweep vs Georgia was violent, i thought he would be stopped for a loss but he turned it up for like 7 yards. He’s physical as hell on special teams, blocking with purpose and making hits.

We all know our defense will be one of the tops on the country. If this offense can move the ball in any manor against them. Everyone is fucked. Super fucked 

Just need to average about 24 points a game. This D is going to be fun.

Sounds like we’re about to see many off schedule QB runs until the O gets settled.   
 
We should all be prepared for a shit offense week 1 in the shoe.  Likely (no surprise) to be an ugly slugfest 

Had to scroll up to confirm if Saty or not

He was 2 of 3 from 50+ last year, including making a 60-yarder.

He also missed 2 extra points last year (53 of 55).

“Aaron Butler dropped a pass”

 

idk why I found this funny but where do I sign up to pay for this crucial information?

Depends on whether the guy's still being passed to when his hands are broken or not, al a Worthy.

If you got 2 kickers, you got no kicker 

One of those kicker's only job is to kick touchbacks. That's no different than the last couple of years.

I don't understand. There's a big part of Sarkisian that simply doesn't like to kick field goals when the ball is around the 35 yard line. Maybe that changes, but I doubt it. He considers it a part of his all gas no brakes identity.
