What about the other 50 or so players who sucked that day, that previously rolled up 66 points on Uconn?

Nobody wants to get beat up, so they pick on the kicker.

Angry fans back off abuse of WVU kicker
Wednesday, December 05, 2007
By Chuck Finder, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Death threats, vandalism and verbal abuse directed at West Virginia Mountaineers kicker Pat McAfee of Plum High already have subsided since his father went public on a West Virginia-wide radio network about some fans' unruly behavior.
"It's a lot better now," Tim McAfee, his father, said today. "Pat's a lot better. Sunday night, Pat was really distraught."
Tim McAfee felt compelled to e-mail MetroNews, the statewide radio network based in Morgantown, after his son had: fans outside his off-campus house yelling at him; received angry text messages; heard about his girlfriend getting verbally abused; found his car vandalized; and discovered a death threat on his Facebook account saying, "McAfee must die."
The younger McAfee, a junior, is a three-time Big East special-teams player of the week this season who, after converting 11 consecutive field goals and then missing a 56-yarder before halftime against Connecticut, missed two attempts within his range early against Pitt Saturday night. He was wide on attempts from 20 (from a bad angle) and 32 yards in a scoreless first quarter of what wound up a 13-9 Pitt victory that prevented the Mountaineers from playing in the Bowl Championship Series national championship game.
"The majority of West Virginia fans are good, good people," Tim McAfee said, adding that his family in Plum since the weekend has received nothing but support from Mountaineers followers. "I think it was a very limited number of people" harrassing and threatening Pat.
His MetroNews email, which was a main subject on the network's Tuesday night sports-talk show, was a reaction to the online death threat.
"That put me over the edge," he said. "I got to do something. I got to say something about it. That's just not right."
