to kickoff the ball out of the back of the endzone. Why isn't he our kickoff guy. Is he hurt? Was he mis-evaluated? How is it possible to even mis-evaluate that anyway? You can either do it or you can't. Domingues kickoffs didn't get in the endzone all night and then his kick out of bounds really hurt us and was one of many plays (made by many different players) that could have cost us the game.

No man. Why squib kick with 49 seconds ? That only takes valuable time off the clock. That's just silly.

I mean, kicking it out of the end zone takes 0 seconds off the clock. It was totally ridiculous that Miles calls a squib and tells Domingue to kick the ball out of bounds. They just needed to kick the ball out of the endzone so they give bama the ball with as much time as possible on the clock.

I don't think his kick out of bounds hurt that much. Kicking it out of the endzone would have put the ball on the 25. The extra 10 yards wasn't much when they got all the way to our 10.

I think they simply won't use him unless it's a blowout after he shanked one against Wisconsin.

He had one kickoff late in the Kentucky game.

It's bullshite. Dude has a rocket.. leg.

We aren't playing the right guys at a bunch of positions, it seems.

You can argue the squib kick cost us the game. Also- Bama had a 20 mph wind at their back.

I was responding to his comment about domingue not putting it out of the endzone in all of his previous kick offs.

I know the best thing to do at the end of the game was to put it out the back of the endzone.

Why in the frick would you want to boom it out of the end zone? You need to take any time you can off of the clock and they needs to force a kick return there

They apparently didn't get the memo that the ball is now spotted on the 25 after a touchback on kickoffs. Fools.

I was also wondering about this. Trent D is a non-scholarship kicker and had a barely mediocre game. Let's get Gamble back doing what he was recruited for.

Also maybe look at less playing time for Quinn--was wondering where Diarse was and again a few more snaps for Harris wouldn't be a bad idea.
