Kicking harder in College???

The reason the kickoffs are closer is to prevent injuries.

It's far more difficult to kick FGs in the pros- no tees and narrower goal posts-polus better players trying to block them.

Lol at tees...haven't seen them things since high school. Having narrower hashes in the nfl makes the defense have to cover more space as it gives the offense more space to work with in the boundary. They are the best of the best so they must play under harder circumstances. 100% agree though that kicking in the nfl is a lot easier all the way around.
 
No one wants to see an NFL game come down to a 55 yard kick from a college right hash.
