Well heck. I think based on those stats a contract extension is certainly warranted. I am sufficiently chastised & sincerely apologize to Candle, Blair & UT. I mean, who wouldn’t want to be in the bottom half of the MAC in a bunch of categories? Right where we should be.

If Cluckey is as bad as some say on this site, why not use the backup kicker Pawlak, that kicked the 43 yard FG against EMU ? Cluckey stats to this point is as follows:

10/14 made, from 1-19, 0-0, from 20-29, 3-3, from 30-39, 3-5 (not good), 40-49, 4-6 (respectable), 50+, 0-0. Extra points 47/47.

Pawlak, 2/2 FG's, 20-29, 1-1, 40-49, 1-1. Extra points 3/3

both kickers 12/16 for the season. 50/50 extra points.
