The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 1 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Camden Lewis kicked that crazy extra point off the up rights to seal the game. If you take a closer look on the replay, you can see his planting foot almost spin completely to the left causing him to nearly fall down. He was kicking on that freshly tilled side of the field. In real time I thought he almost blew the game but now I see that he actually saved it and should get some well deserved props. 1 1 2 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Administrator No. 2 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Boy...I don't know. I cannot help but wonder if a bit of the mental "yips" did not get to him? But he made it, and had a terrific year placekicking; now if we could solve the punting and kickoff return issues! 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven A Moderator No. 3 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Actually, on his earlier XP from the same spot, he hit it perfect but spun out just after contact. I think that was on his mind a couple minutes later for the best dunk of his life. Kinda like Nate Costa's save v AZ years ago. At 8:55 of the video. All the highlights worth watching. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Marsh No. 4 Share Posted December 30, 2022 That field at the holiday bowl was deteriorating fast. If you just look at the uniforms over the course of the game they were real muddy by the end. I wouldn't be surprised if there was some added slickness to it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Ducker1 No. 5 Share Posted December 30, 2022 When I saw it hit the goal post I thought OMG overtime --My heart was on overload. Thankfully it bounced the right way. And as Dave Marsh mentioned the field was pretty soft and muddy. Players had dirt and grass stains early in the 1st. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Duck No. 6 Share Posted December 30, 2022 All I know is that Lewis had one of the most accurate kicking seasons for any Duck kicker in program history. 14-16 FGs 64-64 PATs 1 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lownslowav8r No. 7 Share Posted December 31, 2022 All the kickers struggled. The footing and surface was abysmal. No more non-football fields. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
