Kicking Field Goals

edit

"He went on to play college football at the University of Minnesota, where he was a quarterback, backing up All-American Paul Giel. Cappelletti kicked extra points, but the Golden Gophers did not kick field goals in those years. However, as a sophomore in 1952, Cappelletti talked the coach into letting him try a game-winning 43-yard kick against Iowa."

I'm puzzled by the phrase "the Golden Gophers did not kick field goals in those years." Was that some team policy? It doesn't look like the team was so good as to never have to settle for three points. WHPratt (talk) 22:14, 26 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
