Tulsa did make one last night. Tied 6-6.

You have to give the fg squad credit for the extra point that was made after the td, so it is 7-6.

If I were in a fourth and less than five and my kicker would have to attempt more than a 35 yarder against SMU, I would go for it. The trajectory on the long kicks favors them getting blocked, especially when there's a 6'8" Estonian kick blocking machine just waiting to get his palm on the ball.

i don't know the distance, but there was a short one last night that we got a hand on.

Margus blocked a 45 yarder, Tulsa made a 30 yarder, and Grenier blocked a 48 yarder.
