Coming down the stretch of the regular season, Alabama sophomore placekicker Conor Talty has found himself caught in Alabama fans' crosshairs. Talty’s ugly miss in a two-point loss to Oklahoma, and his ensuing tirade at his holder on the field at Bryant-Denny Stadium, got the fanbase’s frustrations up, and after another miss in Week 13 against Eastern Illinois, they let them out.
Talty was showered with boos following a first-half 28-yard misfire, his eighth missed field goal of the season. Then, when he came out for an extra point later in the half, he was met with another flock of boo birds.
