Actually it kind of relates. In baseball, I got hit with a pitch in the elbow. This was a pretty fast fastball, one of the fastest in the league. As I trotted to first, I found that it was actually really hard to run. Since you kind of lose feeling in your elbow, its hard to hold it up like it normally would. So by the kicker missing time with a broken wrist, it could actually be harder for him to get any power into his kick because the cast that would be on his arm is somewhat dragging him down. So by him having to put extra energy into not letting his arm bring him down, and not using that energy to kick, that might be why. That's probably too deep to be in a video game, but that's what my conclusion might be.
I don't think a college team would send out a kicker with a badly broken wrist.
Yes, but that was the last game of the season, and I have the conference championship and then possibly the NC if I win. Now I don't have a kicker. My kicker actually did triple duty(FGs, punts, KOS).
