Boise State Loses to Nevada.

I love the game of football, but last night its showed its only big weakness in the game. The kickers have way too much power/impact on the game. I read a tweet from Locke I think saying that kicker cost not only all his teammates a victory but also the school.........around 4 million dollars.

Bad way to think about things. Every single play before that had an impact to get both teams to where they were.

Think about this: You could have a kicker who made every single clutch game-winning field goal, incredibly clutch. I could have one that missed most game winners, a choke artist. But if my kicker kicks 90% otherwise, and yours kicks 50%, my kicker would be better, and my team would win more games.

This.

BS football, collectively, is responsible for the loss. The fact that it has to come down to the kicker is the result of the offense, defense, and coaching staff not getting their jobs done as they should. Yeah, it's reasonable to expect your kicker to hit those (either of them) but for the number 4 team in the country to let it get down to that...

Agreed. This game should have been over but BS couldn't stop the run at all late in the game. The big play which was the reverse, I thought Nevada was going to be stopped with a loss of yards yet he somehow avoided 4 guys ready to tee off on him. Then proceeded to run it in. Entertaining game to say the least.
