How do you know? Just because he had numerous kicks inside the 20, how do we know he wasn't punting from the opposition's 45 yd line. That stat is ridiculous without context. Inside the 20 is not a big deal. Inside the 10 is an accomplishment in punting.

Have you watched any football this year? If it’s in that range and less than 4 yards to go, the offense is going to go for it, not attempt a “60 yard field goal”

If you are curious, I would suggest you go back and research it

Blake Ochsendorf averaged 40.2 yards per punt this year. That was 12th in the SEC. But the leader, Thorson from UGA, only averaged 44.1 y/p. I couldn't find any stats on net yards or returns against.

The average HS kicker can’t consistently hit a 30 yard field goal.

Good job. I was just seeing if you were paying attention. Thorson's net average was 44 y/p while Ochsendorf's average punt was 40.2 y/p.
