re: Have we talked about the squib kick from our own 20 with 44 seconds left?

Anything behind the UK 45 yd. line (which is where this ball ended up) would be considered "good". It's unrealistic to assume that UK would not have returned a regular kickoff to at least the 40 yd. line, AND the potential for an even longer return would've been in play. From an "odds" perspective, I thought the squib kick was a safer bet against a bigger return - it just happened to end up better than even planned.

I'm not about to read all of this, but I agree. I do think the original kick (meaning before all the bounces) was too short, and if the bounces were more unfriendly, that could have been problematic. It was a good call in the abstract though.

If your argument makes sense then we should squib EVERY kick off.
