I guess you are going off total yards and not average


Kool Aid had 21 for 333: 15.86 yds a return

Zavion had 15 for 202: 13.47 yds a return

That link isn’t working and I took those stats from the official websites for each school

I feel good about McPherson, Chapman, and Battie at AU.

Not sure why, but I'd trust CFB Stats over a school site if we're being honest. Bama said Bryce was 6' tall.

Stud kicker for sure. I think he and Woodring at UGA will be the best freshmen in the league.

Tulu Griffin and Zavion Thomas are better if you want to check the stats

I’m pretty confident that it has to be better than last year. I’m not sure how to measure how bad they were but I’m sure they led to -100 yds per game.

That's quite a turnaround. It seemed that Bama's special teams, especially the kickers have been the weak link in the last 10+ years






Yeah it's painful. I don't know how many ships we would have won or at least played for with a money kicker.

Punter is good, not great if that helps. The other key STs positions are pretty good.

LSU has a guy this year. Aaron Aderson. He will be that guy LSU lacked last season.

Ignore the haters...special teams are very important. One of the hidden talents we have had over the last few years is excellent punters and kickers. Our punt return game has been meh.

Hard to imagine a bigger play in our game last year against UT than the 75 yd punt.
