Which school has the best Special Teams play, taking into account all aspects, punts, punt returns, kick-offs, kick-off returns, PAT/field goal units.

BYU is better, because their placekicking is probably more consistent. So few kick returns in college football (or football in general) that the return game is not as big of a deal.

Don't forget punting. We have a good punter and good punt returner.

I have little confidence if Saturday comes down to a BYU FG attempt.

I am confident if the game comes down to a field goal--unless it is a 45 + yard field goal.



Punting and punt coverage should go to BYU

What if it is a short one? But I agree we have not seen our punter kick field goals under game winner pressure and our field goal kicker is rusty at best and possibly still having back pain. Maybe we get to see T. Hill do a fake.



But my bigger question is whether you have more confidence in U kicking one.



I still remember The Clank BYU win, but I also remember a blocked field goal that beat us.

Maybe if it was under 30 yards, I'd feel somewhat confident.
