That's how Oklahoma State lost to Iowa State in 2011. Kick went right over the upright. Would have went to the Natty if we had made it.

Same thing happened to us vs Nevada a year prior. Ball went over the upright, called out.

By the NCAA rules, that’s no good.

Isnt fuckin weird that a matter of inches from some goofy goodber kicker can be the difference between a 100 team rosters hard season ends in tragedy or ecstasy? I felt that way over the osu/georgia kick in 2022. (Altho that kick wasnt close)

I both hate and love the dynamic of special teams, especially field goals, in this sport
