LANE KIFFIN LOSES HIS MIND; ATTEMPTS 76 YARD FIELD GOAL

A. Isaac Senior Editor

Being in the Eastern Time Zone, I don’t get to catch too many West Coast games. But luckily for us, FanIQs Editor 100% Injury Rate is a huge nerd and found this gem.

For some reason, just before halftime with the Raiders leading 15-0, Kiffin let Sebastian Janikowski – who admittedly does have a huge leg – attempt a 76-yard field goal. That’s 13 yards more than the longest field goal in NFL history, and apparently Janikowski’s attempt was into a slight headwind as well. As absurd as that sounds, what’s even more absurd is that the Raiders actually called a timeout with one second left in the half to set this thing up rather than just let the clock run out.

What'd you think of this?
