The sounds of "NUUUUUUUUGE" were deafening after he made the kick. But they were there even before he made it. Nugent was the man before he made this kick. If you told me before the game, could love for Nugent get any bigger I would probably have said no, Buckeye fans already love him as much as any other player. Well I was wrong...Nugent did get bigger. "NUUUUUGE" will now echo throughout the Shoe louder than ever, and probably even in North Carolina as well. Good thing the Sporting News picked Nugent as the 4th best kicker in the Big 10 this year (no joke). Terry Bowden said it best as I finally got to watch the tape of the game last night after I got home from being there. "There is nobody else in America I would rather have attempting this kick than Nugent." That was before he made it. Terry knew he'd make it. 100,000 strong in the Shoe knew he would make it. Millions of Buckeye fans watching ABC knew he would make it. Now the country knows that next time, they better not let Ohio State inside the 40.

That kick would've been good from 60+. On the replay from the below-the-uprights view, the ball went through half way up the uprights...it cleared the crossbar by 8-10 feet. He flatout crushed it.
