Why aren't we going for it on 4th and 3 at the Elon redzone? What does 3 points do to us when we are down 14 (still down two scores with field goal), Elon is scoring at will, and our offense is playing well. Trau misses and Elon is once again running at will.
I have liked Trau but he has become a liability. Anything beyond 33 yards (NFL extra point) is very questionable. Now we don't even try if it's longer than 40, and that's pathetic. There are high school kickers all over the place that can make them longer than 40 yards. And I don't even want to talk about kickoffs, I've beaten that horse for years.
I will give Breckenridge a pass for now because he's a freshman. Statistically he had a good game, with the benefit of some fortuitous rolls. But he's averaging 34 yards a punt (mediocre high school distance).
Now, cue the responses that will say:
1. Can't get good kickers at the FCS level
2. Should never "waste" scholarships on kickers and punters
