Alabama coach Nick Saban says his kickers won’t use tape to spot field goals and extra points. South Carolina Steve Spurrier pointed out Leigh Tiffin’s use of the white tape to spot his kicks in last week’s game and reported it to the Southeastern Conference. He said Tiffin quickly put the tape in his pocket after kicking. Saban says Tide coaches have found that more than half of the SEC teams put something such as a piece of grass or mud on the field so the kicker knows where the ball will be spotted.

South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier says Alabama used some tape trickery on field goals and extra points last weekend and is asking the Southeastern Conference if what he saw on video is legal.

No. 25 South Carolina wasn’t sure how well its kicking game would hold up with all-Southeastern Conference kicker-punter Ryan Succop off to the NFL. So far, Spencer Lanning has barely missed a beat, or a kick, for the Gamecocks.

Southeastern Conference Commissioner Mike Slive says there is no reason to have a “public hanging” when game officials make bad calls.
