One of the best nights in Brandon Coutu's life quickly turned into one of the worst on Saturday. The Georgia kicker walked into his Athens home after kicking a game-winning field goal at Vanderbilt and found that burglars had ransacked the place and stolen almost everything of value and some of sentimental value, such as SEC championship and bowl gifts.

Sadly, you read about burglaries too many times in the Red & Black (school newspaper).

Kickers are akin to illegal immigrants...they have no rights, nor should they receive any public service.

Well we know it wasn't anyone at Vanderbilt, they would have robbed him through the interweb.

A player gets stuff for going to bowl games. The bigger the bowl game, the better the gift. It's like a, "Thanks for giving us all of this money, so we'll give you a mountain bike." from the sponsor. It's pretty commonplace.

This would be a better headline if he had actually missed the field goal

The gifts were probably some used j-straps, old footballs, maybe a tee from the game. I mean come on what kind of cool gifts is a kicker going to have??

How is this a funny situation? Coming home to find your home broken in to is very demeaning and serious. This is not something to make jokes about! I hope they find the**** that did it because there's nothing worse than a damn thief!!
