Fun with special teams stats

These tell you a lot about us.

b b b b but USC and Utah both use that gimmicky spread offense. That is not real college football. I bet they don't even script their first 15 plays!

if you could find a way to take those 28 kickoffs and cut them open and count the layers of character, right way, and integrity you'd see that no other kickoffs in the country could hang with them concentration wise. Sure those 39 plastic touchbacks from Houston may look good and may even help them win a game or 8, but scratch the surface a little deeper...and you'll see a kickoff that is riddled with thuggery, wrong way, and anti-integrity. I'll take St. Croom and his kicking squad that is steeped in Croom's own brew of all the right stuff any day over Pete Carroll and his "All-American" (ie thug) kickers.
