3. Kicking game is not atrocious

That’s what it was last week against Hawaii–and it’s not supposed to be.

Senior kicker Wyatt Bryan is the leader of the Rams special teams unit–he’s a four-year starter who missed three total field goals last year in 18 attempts. Against Hawaii, he was 0-for-2 missing both of his field goal tries.

In a rivalry game like this, special teams usually plays a crucial role and if your kicker goes 0-fer, your team could have some issues.
