When Sam Ficken booted the game-winning extra point in overtime against Boston College in the 2014 Pinstripe Bowl, capping a remarkable redemption season in which Ficken did not miss on a single kick attempt that wasn’t blocked, I felt a sense of joy for the man, but also felt a bit of sadness in the sense that we as a fanbase were spoiled with such kicking perfection. After that game, I told myself that it would be a long time until Penn State would have a kicker who made it through an entire season without shanking a single field goal or extra point attempt.
