We saw a lot of field goal kicker calamity firsthand this season—all of it from NC State’s opponents. This season was bookended by dramatic wins made possible thanks to the unreliability of the placekicker on the other sideline.
While other teams were going through the very common College Kicker Struggle, we were just kicking back on the other side, knowing that this could not be our problem, because we had Christopher Dunn. I will never be able to thank Christopher Dunn enough for all of the stress he managed to remove from this season all by himself.
That’s not something that can fully be appreciated in the moments, but now that the season is done and I can take stock?
