Automatic Aubrey appreciation thread

It's a shame that he tied for the longest kick in NFL history, but it doesn't count. The 71-yarder, if he had made it, would have sent me into a frenzy. Who knew a kicker could be so much fun? Aubrey is a gem.
And, recall that Aubrey kicked a 66-yarder in the preseason game against the Raiders. Of course, that didn't count, either.

The clock mismanagement on today's attempt was clear coaching malpractice - something we've now unfortunately become accustomed to from MM. Not sure what's up with that.
 
aubrey will win a game on a 70+ yarder this season

write it down it will happen

The sad part is the fact that the referees missed another one why do they always get to make mistakes they didn't reset the clock and we had to time out we would have called the time out if needed this was again a referee issue it didn't have any effect on the game thank God but he's annoying he made that cake easily and should have at least tied the record
 
We have the best K, the best P, and a PR capable of taking it to the house. Fassel doesn’t get enough love IMO.
Right and three years ago people were making fun of John fassle mr bones, I mean the irony here that he has one of the best units on our team
 
He should've been given the opportunity from 71 yards
I disagree in the heat of the moment with the emotions but the dude could have ran that back the best thing to do was to punt but the referees are wrong they did not reset the clock we had a timeout they kicked that field goal it should have been made it should have been a record tying field goal
 
Aubrey is incredible. A lot of fans take the kicker position for granted but this was a helluva find by the FO.

Makes all the crap we dealt with with Maher and Greg Z a while ago worth it.

Lot of good things today. He made 66 for sure. Did you see how it cleared?

If you don't think they know his absolute range, you're crazy. I'm sure its been gone over in camp.

Tiny degrees matter. Can they hold the line for him to kick that low? To kick 60+ its a much harder, low angle kick.

I think 67 or 68 is his limit (and that is INSANE) and Mike knows it.
 
I for one couldn't be more impressed with Aubrey! He tied the record longest ever FG today although it was called back. I think before the years over he nails the record. As for the 71 yard attempt, I believe he could have made it although the scenario tonight was probably not the right one to attempt it, a return of a short kick could have turned the game around.
There will be other opportunities like a last second FG attempt or something similar at some point though and he will get his shot at a 70 plus. :flagwave:
Not to mention that the trajectory of a 71 yarder would make it much easier to block than most.
 
best notre dame player we've had since zack martin.
i love that fightn' irshman.
 
His leg is unreal. He has to be the strongest leg in the league now.
 
Dan Bailey is proud of this guy right now. We are truly blessed to have this player. Hes a weapon.
