I think Oh has shown a good leg and I believe the one he missed was a bad snap that threw off timing. (Would have to go back and watch to confirm), I think he’s got promise. Part me me thinks tha lack of confidence is with the entire unit.
From what I saw, the timing was perfect, the hold was just off by 90 degrees.

Didn’t he catch the snap up by his right shoulder though and have to pull it down? It think it caused Oh to have to wait even for a split second. By the way why are there nc state guys through the line way before the kick.
 
I don't think the kickers are largely the problem. Snaps are sloppy, holds are suspect or blocking is shite OR any combination of the 3. Kickers are rightfully nervous and rushing through processes
Come on now, this couldn't be on the ST coach.

Agreed. Its a snap issue.
 
Laces and where they are when the ball is kicked is the most over hyped thing in all of football.
Not if you ever tried to kick with laces in.
 
I think Oh has been solid. He missed one but the extra points and short yardage have been good. We have the offense to go for it with confidence in “no man’s land.” I think Fran going for it on 4th downs was more confidence in McCord and the offense than lack of confidence in Oh from 30 yards.
But I feel like our offense inside the 20 is not as efficient.

It has been fairly solid, we are scoring on 84% of red zone trips. The missed field goals hurt that stat. For some reason the play calling against NC State became very conservative inside the 20. I don’t like taking the ball out of Mccord’s hand like we did. I think we are trying to establish the run too much in certain situations. We moved the ball between the 20s very easily against NC State and then tried to establish the run in the red zone with some goofy formations and play calls. If it ain’t broke…. We got too cutesy.

If you’re not consistent in the run game, scoring inside the 20 is going to always be a lot harder. A lot easier to defend the RZ when you don’t need to sell out for the run. Then a lot less space for the offense to throw. Two bad combos.
 
I think 75% of the problem is with kick protection. When it's not there, snaps get hurried, kicker is peaking, coach fears it getting blocked and returned. Fix the blocking and most of this gets cured.
This seems right to me.

I suspect Fran thought there was less risk - not just more potential reward - in keeping the offense on.

A block and return there would have been devastating.
 
This is so wrong.
“A regulation football is inflated to 13.5 psi. Ideally, you want your kick to decrease the size of the ball by 1/3 which, by Boyle's Law, will increase the pressure by ~30%. That force is being exerted on the top side of the ball facing away from the kicker. You want an efficient energy transfer between the foot and the back side of the ball bladder. The laces and stripes are stitched on. This means that there are holes in the leather where they are attached. If the laces are out, the bladder can expand into these holes which means the volume of air increases, and the pressure decreases. Obviously, the effect is negligible, but it is interesting.” Science…….

This actually helped me understand more about my prostate issues.

I agree. The kickers are not the problem. If they had blocks, no issues... and if the blockers project, also no issues.
