But Moore also realizes that the impact the plays he does play can be huge.
The Indianapolis, Ind., native has been consistent nearly all season long, often pinning the opposing defenses and averaging over 40 yards a game, perhaps playing his best football in his senior season.
"That's exactly what you want from a senior," Head Coach David Elson said. "You hope all your seniors can play their best football in their senior year. And that's what Jeremy has done. He's punted the ball better than he ever has. I think that just comes from experience, preparation and stepping up to the challenge week in and week out."
Moore credits consistency as well for his improved performance in 2009.
"I was able to have spurts the last two years where I hit the ball well and I would go in a slump where I wouldn't hit well," Moore said. "So far this year, I've been really fortunate to have success and just ride it out."
In Moore's sophomore season in 2007, he averaged 41.7 yards per punt and pinned 13 punts inside the opponent's 20-yard line.
But a season ago, Moore's averaged dropped to 36.9 yards per punt.
"(This season) I've been able to keep my confidence up," Moore said. "And in the kicking and punting game, confidence is huge. So to be able to have that confidence and keep that confidence has been huge."
Elson said that Moore has learned a lot about himself throughout his career.
"As soon as he kicks a ball he knows if he did something wrong and therefore he can get it corrected," Elson said. "He's good at being honest with himself and knowing what it is he's got to do to get back in line if he gets in a bit of a rough streak kicking the ball."
Moore said that the entire goal of the punt team is to change the field position around.
"So when we're fortunate enough to pin them down there and make them go 80 or 90 yards it's the most gratifying thing that I can possibly do," Moore said. "Our teammates have been so supportive. They come off and realize how important it is. The support I've gotten from everyone so far has been unbelievable."
Special teams coach Stuart Holt said a lot of Moore's success can be credited to his preparation.
"Each year, each week he has just worked on consistency and trying to do it the same way every single time," Holt said. "And honestly, he's just had a ton of reps and he's seeing it pay off."
Along with confidence in his game, Moore has also added a new wrinkle to his punting. Holt came up with an idea to have Moore punt rugby-style at times, meaning Moore would roll out to his right a few steps before punting it.
"We went from a spread punt, which you see in the NFL to a shield punt, which we run now with the three guys in front," Moore said. "And the reason we had to adapt the rugby punt was because of protection. With that punt scheme they can load up a lot of people up the middle and bring a bunch of pressure right up to our shield. We can't protect that so to deter them from doing that, we roll out to the right. And not to mention, it's a really good option for fakes."
Elson said that a season ago, Moore wasn't real comfortable kicking rugby-style.
"But he's been really good with those this year and has been a factor for us when we hadn't maybe wanted to kick to a good returner," Elsons said. "He's gotten some really good mileage out of that."
Not only has Moore had success when he's had to punt, but also when the play call has been to not punt.
Moore has been successful multiple times when fakes have been called this season and Moore credits Holt for the calls.
"He's the mastermind behind that," Moore said. "And the times we've run it it's been perfect. It was exactly how he told us it would work out. The thing that I get the most benefit out of is that it means another first down for our offense. And that gives them another chance to put points on the board."
Like many of his teammates, Moore has an interest in not only football, but also music.
Moore said that he has started to put together a beat laboratory in his house and is starting to make some music.
Fittingly, the name of the laboratory is "Moore Records."
"It's going to be a big label someday," Moore said.
Moore said he's also an avid golfer, often playing Crosswinds in Bowling Green when he has time. He said he also used to play at Bowling Green Country Club quite a bit while he was employed there a couple years ago.
Like Moore the rest of the 2009 seniors, they'll play their final home game against Arkansas State.
But Moore plans to stick around campus and finish his degree in May before starting in the MBA program at WKU.
"After that, it's just going to depend on what I can find," Moore said.
