bullshite. They practice running the field goal team on and executing this kick. They were set, ball snapped, good hold. Alleman needs to make the kick.

BS back at you. How many times has it happened in a game under Miles where the field goal team ran onto the field with time running out and made a field goal with no time left on the clock? Is that the preferred way to kick a field goal? Does that scenario add stress to an already stressful situation? Is there a valid coaching reason to place your field goal team and kicker in that situation if not necessary? Is that the optimal situation for kicking field goals?

I thought not!

Speaking of brain farts, what game was it that Miles chose to kick a 60+ yard field goal into the wind?

Arkansas '09 immediately comes to mind.

What were the circumstances? I don't recall it ever happening. And surely not with Alleman and anyone on the current field goal team. The point being it is not a common or optimal occurrence.

Well, is Auburn freaking out on a worse situation?

Auburn called its second time out after an injury time out.

That made no sense at all.
