Collegiate Clutch Ballistics Analysis

From the right collegiate hash at 42 yards, the kicker must counter both a 20-foot lateral starting displacement and a 6.5 mph right-to-left crosswind. With an initial exit velocity of 74.0 mph and a 32.5° launch angle, the ball maintains sufficient kinetic energy to punch through the uprights 7.8 feet above the 10-foot crossbar, swinging Ole Miss's win probability from 1.8% to 100.0% as time expires.
