WATCH: Indiana specialists have perfected an incredible ‘trick shot’
Published:
You hear the two words every college football season: college kickers.
It’s become a common phrase anytime a field goal is missed in the college game, particularly any attempt that would be considered a “gimme” by most. But make no mistake about it, regardless of how often you hear those two words, remember this: those college kickers are still pretty darn good.
Specialists at Indiana showed off just how good they really are, too.
While Big Ten Network stopped in Bloomington on Monday for its annual bus tour, members of the Hoosiers’ special teams had a special treat for the visit. They showed off one of their impressive trick shots.
Here’s what that looked like:
We asked the @IndianaFootball specialists for their best trick shot, and they didn’t disappoint.

It’s difficult to judge which was more impressive; the holder placing two footballs in perfect position, the kickers nailing the attempts or the long snapper drilling the water bottle off the head.
We can argue about that all day, but you can’t argue about that trick shot being impressive.
Well done, college kickers.
