Alabama Football: A new kicker commit brings Tide new hope

Alabama football has had some great field goal kickers in its history. Yet, the memories of Tide fans are bittersweet when thinking of kickers. Most recently, the usually dependable Andy Pappanastos came close to derailing a national championship. He made an important kick against Georgia but badly missed a potential game-winner.

Adam Griffith had a very good Crimson Tide career. He made five field goals against Auburn in 2015 but he will forever be remembered for the ‘Kick Six’ in 2013. Jeremy Shelley made five field goals in the 2012 national championship game against LSU. But, the strongest 2012 kicking memories are the missed field goals in the loss to LSU in the 2012 regular season.
