You mean to tell ME these gen Zimps can't kick it from further back? It’s embarrassingly close. How does this prepare you for the next level?

I’d bet you could pull 4 out of 10 baws from the stands and three would make it.

Counter point.

I like that it’s not a guarantee anymore. Is it “weird” compared to what we’re used to? Yes. But it was a good change. It brings some more strategy into the game. Same for the general idea behind the kickoff change. They need to fix the stupid onside bullshite though. Just make it a 4th and 15 from your own 30/35 with no conversions on penalties.

You've clearly never gone to a fan fest before a big game and seen the average fan try to kick an extra point

Yeah, the NFL has done a lot to remove some of the fun trick plays out of the game.

Stupid kickoff= you can't even try an onside kick for a lot of the game, and when you do it's 100% obvious.
Remember the Saints opening the 2nd half of the Super Bowl with an onside kick? No longer allowed.

Stupid extra point 15 yds back= no more lining up in kicking formation and running a fake. Sure, in an offensive formation you have better personnel in, but so does the defense; and again they 100% know it's coming.

The 32 yard extra point is great. Not as automatic anymore. 90% vs 99.5% makes or so.

There are 32 NFL kickers. It's a fluke for them to miss a chip shot.

There are 130 kickers in I-A alone plus all the other levels. You don't have the same guarantee of being able to do it every time.

Reminder that LSU lost to FSU two years ago because they fricked the XP twice.
