Aussie style punting !

[Cane&Abel]

For the love of everything, Can we please stop with the running style Aussie Punts??
At times this season he came so close to getting it blocked and last night it got us !!

Just catch and boot the **** ball! His punts were bad last night .

That is 100% on his immediate coach who should be noticing this and telling him to kick the **** ball quicker

You are right !! Also on the coach to make him aware that Indiana is good at blocking punts and in that moment making him aware of where he is on the field ! Ball has to get out quick !!!

 

[Firesite]

He has been slow all year with his kicks. It finally caught up to him after a missed block from Bauman.

 

[L A M P]

I told the guy sitting to my right after the first punt that I hated it & that Indiana was good enough at scouting to block one. Spoke it into existence. Not really, just a bad play by the TE & punter.

Completely agree though!

That block punt keeps ****ing me off!!! Worse time for that to happen !

 

[ShadowSpring]

stop the stupid. nobody blocked the DE. stop blaming the victim here

That’s the whole point of an Aussie style kicker. They are looking for distance not hang time so they kick slower to give your guys time to get down there.

 

[bobbydigius]

Aussie style is just fine. Our kicker is just extra slow with it and our TE didn’t bother to make a block.

 

[flips]

The block was brutal. Still can't believe that happened. Joyce had been having a stellar playoff before then. 43.4 net avg, just 6% touchback rate, 41% inside the 20 rate.

With how slow developing it is … watch it happens again !

If #87 moves his **** feet instead of just sticking his arm out there... it's a non issue. If he takes one more **** step to his right, the punt don't get blocked, and we're probably hoisting the trophy last night.

 

[JBCanes-NC]

They wasn't even trying to block the punt. ****n 87 sorry *** fckd up again

 

[JHallCanes]

Doing it near your end zone is criminally ******* stupid especially after the one before almost got blocked

I wasn’t even surprised when it happened

 

[OrangeBowlMagic]

I must have said to myself literally 30-40 times today, ".....I can't ******* believe we gave up a blocked punt on punt safe..."

I'm so sick.

This was the biggest issue and one of the reasons I said Miami needs to invest heavily into special teams.

In that area of the field, at that point in the game, you need to make sure everyone is aware that the punt needs to get off. Most Miami fans are sitting there watching the punt thinking to themselves, "please don't get this blocked". You instinctively know the situation and the stakes.

The same exact thing happened when we played Louisville. I think everyone in the stadium is sitting there saying, "please watch the fake".

They need to approach special teams as seriously as they do defense and offense. Mario went out and got the best DC he could last year. He needs to go get the best special teams coordinator he can. Make it a strength and make teams fear it. Special teams is the biggest bang for your buck you can spend.

 

[The U is back to work]

I was so ******* angry when this happened. Was in slow ******* motion too. This absolute *******.

 

[CanesFP]

When they showed the replay and I saw it was 87 in that last line of defense I asked who was in-charge of personnel for punt protection and how was 87 allowed to be there given his notable inability to block consistently all season on offense.

How that guy stayed on the field all year is beside me. The guy was constantly looking for someone to block rather than engaging where he was needed.

He plays like he's afraid of contact. No idea how he makes it past any week's video review by the staff.

TE room must be regular ash if he on the field. Still dont understand what's going on with that group.
