Why is Loving not ready? Is it physical, grades, what?

I guess when you have 9 TE's , someone has to be the odd man out ...

Green P1 · September 9, 2013

Grades were always the worry with him. Wonder if we ever see him play here.

Did Mac say anything about trying to run the ball more?

Lord, I apologize...

That's not good news on the kicking game. If Olen can't get the trajectory up for extra points, how is he going to do so for long kicks when trajectory should be lower and faster?

No adjustments needed. That is his normal trajectory.

I do not understand the Kicking situation and why is has not been fixed yet. how many years has it been since I did not hold my breath on PATs and Field Goals?

The Fake Lonnie Finch · September 9, 2013

Good point. He'll have to get it a bit higher, not just faster.

Since Bazaldua graduated.

Uh, when did Nick Balzadua graduate.

"Two more Thomas rushing touchdowns in the second quarter gave NT a 28-10 halftime lead. After a Nick Balzadua 49-yard field goal in the fourth quarter, NT took its largest lead of the game, 45-17."
