The kicking game has certainly left us. Not long ago we were among the best Hope there is a quick fix.

Danny was always scouting the soccer team for kickers.

All the pressure is on FSU.
They are expected to waltz into DV and beat Clemson.
Why not go for two. Put the pressure on the Criminoles!
BC last week was a Mindset problem; they will be locked in. But, all week they will also be told that Clemson is down. Clemson isn't as good.
How will they handle that being the favorite?
Often "as a group" teams do not handle it well and it shows up on game day.
Because of kicking woes and because; it gives you the extra points - I agree!

Surely you jest. If we had a blocking o-line, it might be considered.

Going for two may not be the answer. I saw a team in Durham who couldn’t score from the two on a number of attempts.
Kicking wasn’t a problem in the spring and it was good in the practice I attended. Why did it go bad so quickly? Is the o line T blame?

It's probably nerves / mental

Anything that requires really precise muscle memory and timing can easily get out of whack when nervous. Some people handle those situations much better than others.

You're right. Remember a few seasons ago when, during a practice and in order to demonstrate how mindset of the then "kickers" impeded their ability Dabo went out and nailed an extra point kick? It was said he'd never tried such a kick before. It's got to be a mindset thing, but it's holding the team back.

If we are successful on the two point conversion just 50%

of the time it’s equal to making the one point kick 100% of the time. Might be worth a try.
