I decided to track all the punt returns in this game since it has been a topic of discussion lately. Air time is estimated as YouTube does not provide decimal timing system

1st qtr

Air Time 8:29-8:33
Return ON
well blocked but did not account for Long Snapper

2nd qtr

Air Time 0:01-0:05
Return ON
everyone gets smoked

Air Time 11:42-11:45
Return ON
We doubled the gunners this time and accounted for the Long Snapper. However, the whole right(our right) side gets beat including the double team on the gunner. Carlo gets toasted in a one on one with the Long Snapper then quits on his block.

3rd qtr

Air Time 2:21-2:25
Rush On
gunners win their one on one and Davonte goes no where.

Air Time 8:09-8:13
Protect Safe

4th qtr

Air Time 5:46-5:51
Protect Safe

BYU punted 6 times. We had returns on for the first 3. We blocked one very well except for leaving long snapper to go free forcing a fair catch. We then choose to double the gunners but doesn't help. We also lose many one on one match-ups including one to their long snapper who is a transfer from Snow junior college. (smh)

Coach then decides to rush one punt, as many have called for in hopes of speeding up the punter and forcing the coverage to stay and block longer. It did neither.

After we cut the lead to 4, and take lead we go protect safe.

Thanks again. After watching a few more times i am not so disappointed in the play calling. I am however even more astounded on how bad rees was. Love what he has done in the other games but wow!

Pretty sure he forgot it was legal for him to throw it to anyone aside from Eifert. Also missed an easy TD when Toma and Jones crossed routes and the safety followed Jones leaving Toma by himself streaking downfield. Very disappointing. Although I was most disappointed in Brenza, he was just awful. Missing a 28 yard FG is unacceptable.

But a win is a win is a win. I just wish we could have played better so my buddies could have had a better first experience at ND, the crowd was dead for most of the game.
