Opening Statement:
“We had a couple situations with today’s practice. Tomorrow the players will be off. We’ll come back on Wednesday and practice and then travel out Wednesday night, much like last week.”
You guys were kicking a 60-yard field goal attempt, can you explain when that would come up in a game?
“End of half of end of game, when the opponent is backed up on their two or three yard line and generally there’s a little breeze in their face. Eight seconds left in the half, eight seconds left in the game, four seconds, three seconds, 11 maybe. You feel like you’re going to catch this punt in a favorable spot. It’s a fair catch free kick, it is a rule that allows you to fair catch a punt and right from the spot at which you catch it, you can attempt a field goal try with your kickoff team.
