re: LSU backup punter

Who's the backup punter? If indeed they have him redshirted, it would be wise to yank it and put him on the field....Keehn is God awful and painful to watch! I cringed every time his foot comes into contact with the ball on a punt thinking "Let's see if he'll shank this one or will it get enough hangtime to get our guys at least within 15 yards of the returner?" If we are punting from let's say our own 20-30 yard line, I'm always expecting it may not even cross midfield!

I feel the same exact way. I almost expect at least 1 shank a game....remember when LSU was so good at covering punts? I think they led the nation in yards allowed (or in this case not allowed), but most of it was due to great punting. I believe that was 2011? There are still possibly 8 games left. Let's hope Les will make the call here, it could turn out to be a huge boost for our special teams....and quite honestly....I'm really not sure if it backfired if it could be any worse that what we currently have.
