They are 101st in Opp Kick Return Average

They aren't perfect as some would think.

I noticed Sat night their kicker didn't get it past the 5-10 yard line.

I wish we had someone of the talent of PP or TM back there to make the most of this weakness.

KO return game is so fricking frustrating. Score and then immediately give other team life with a return to the 40.

Even though our Special Teams aren't as good as last year, I think we still have the advantage in that area.

Not impressed with their Punter, or anybody in the return game. Their Kicker has had a great year, but he hasn't had to kick anything over 40 yds.

I think special teams is a realistic area that LSU can outplay Bama....not sure about the rest though.

Alabama fans everywhere hold their breath when we kick the ball. It's mainly the continued shite that is Cade Foster.

Cade was doing an excellent earlier in the year, and a few games ago he went back to his old ways. Its a lot easier for the returner to get yards when he is catching at the 5 yard line. The coverage isnt awful, its the kicking.

Hopefully Ford will party like it is 1981.

Fluker is also weak in pass coverage. Hope mingo has a field day on him.

The fact that Alabama can not cover a kickoff is no big secret. We freaking suck at it, and have for a few years now. I'd be fine either pooch kicking it and causing an upback to fair catch it, squib kicking it, or just kicking it out of bounds every time. The opponents get it at the 40 or better every time we kick anyway.
