maybe in like the 90's. Now, it should be expected. eff, just hit two of the fg's.
i would blame snyder before blaming cantele. k-state had 3rd-and-3 from the auburn 24. if you throw an incompletion, you're guaranteed no better than a 41-yard field goal attempt. with the fairly significant wind (palmer before the attempt: "there is a lot of wind, and it's kind of swirling"), and the unprecedented pressure (biggest home game in forever), this 41-yard attempt - just three yards shorter than cantele's career long - probably had the degree of difficulty of a 50-yarder.
snyder should have been in four-down territory. i think you always ease your kicker into a game like this.
anyway, cantele missed and obviously felt awful. nobody wants to miss a field goal on national TV. so, late in the second quarter, it appears he'll have to kick another one, mentally prepares himself for the possibility of having to kick a 30-yarder, and ... k-state takes a sack. he must now kick a 42-yarder, and "the wind is whipping," and his snapper can't snap, and his holder can't hold, and ... he misses again.
the 22-yarder also wasn't his fault. oh, wait, yes it was.
cantele deserves the blame and should have spoken to the media afterward.
