Ressel has converted nine of his 16 field goal attempts with a long of 47 yards. But he's only 1 of 7 on attempts longer than 40 yards this season.

Punter Trey Barrow again would be the fill-in. Barrow made a 26-yard field goal in his first attempt since high school last week, but missed a 46-yarder at the end of regulation in the Tigers' overtime victory at Texas A&M.
