And they all have bought up the field goal bull shite!

Show em this brah...end of discussion if they believe in real statistics (but they are gumps, so who knows if they believe in real things)

2 for 12

Alabama's kickers, for the year, are two for twelve in field goals of more than 37 yards. *Let me repeat - Alabama has attempted twelve kicks from outside of the redzone this season, and only two of them have gone in. The one for four performance against LSU wasn't some kind of crazy statistical anomaly - they were one for eight in their other games, and the LSU game actually significantly improved their distance kicking average for the year. Based on their average for the entire season, it would take about 18 attempts for Bama to make 3 of the field-goals they attempted on November 5.

Remember this when they shank every mid-to-long range attempt in the Championship game and people act like its LSU getting lucky again.*
