Missouri's Clutch Kicker from the Mid-2000s Glory Days
Adam Crossett shone as Missouri Tigers' sophomore kicker in 2005, earning Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week after averaging a career-high 47.0 yards per punt (3 punts, long of 57) in a thrilling 27-24 OT win over Iowa State, while also nailing key field goals like a 25-yarder in OT during a 2004 17-14 victory. His versatility as MU's top punter (39.4 ypp, 9th in conference), kickoff specialist, and record-setting placekicker (81 points, 14/20 FGs) highlighted ice-cold clutch performance under pressure—ideal for teams needing a reliable, battle-tested leg with no notable injury history.
