-On FGs 30 yards and over, he's 5/7.  That's the best in the conference.

Not sure what you were looking at but he was actually 5/8 on FGs 30 yards and over before today. 

After today, he's now 5/10 on FGs 30 yards and over....doubt that's best in the conference...

For FGs between 30 and 40 yards, he is now 3/6 for the season.

We're just forever scarred by the Fiesta Bowl.  Every time  Williamson lines up it does something bad to my blood pressure. Apparently that reaction is statistically irrational, but memories of the great choke don't go away easily.  I didn't have that reaction when Nate Whitaker was kicking.

I wouldn't have this natural reaction if he made every FG less than 30 yards and more than 50% of FGs between 30 and 40 yds...or maybe I'm just being too picky?

Sure, the Fiesta Bowl will come up every time he has to make a big kick, but he has done little to suggest we should confident about a normal 30 yarder in the 1st quarter against an average team.

Try bringing your expectations in line with reality.  In college, those aren't gimmes.  Only one PAC-12 kicker has attempted more than 3 FGs from inside the 40 this season and hit them all.

Coming into the game, Williamson was 2nd in the PAC-12 in FG percentage.  Even after missing two attempts in this game, he's dropped to 4th, but that still puts him well above average.

I never said he had to make every FG from inside the 40 this season.  However, being 7/11 = 64% for FGs between 20-39 yds this season is a little low for my tastes, although again, I admit might have higher expectations than other fans.  I also don't think 9/16=56% for the season is "well above average" though I could be wrong.

PLEASE don't think I hate the kid or that I want him to fail or something .  Just pointing out his deficiencies and hoping we can discuss whether there are any alternatives (which I guess we don't).
