Kickers are always overlooked until something bad happens.

We all know this, which is why it was funny in September when West Virginia head coach Dana Holgorsen acted like he hardly knew his kicker.

When asked what he told Josh Lambert before he made a game-winning kick against Maryland, Holgorsen said, "I haven't talked to Josh Lambert since he got on campus."

Everybody laughed.

Well, on Saturday, Lambert had the last laugh at the expense of his coach.

First, he nailed a 55-yard field goal with no time remaining to beat Texas Tech.

Afterward, he Tweeted a picture with Holgorsen and wrote, "He finally talked to me!!!! Lol #Winning." Take a look:

Well played, Lambert, well played.
