Richmond 31 Towson 28 - Special Teams Solid

[mojo-spider]

special teams absorbed a lot of brick bats this week and with good reason...

early in the week Coach Rocco acknowledged and stated we needed to fix the special teams problems we experienced against Colgate...

something definitely changed...I'm not sure all our problems are solved, but the special teams play today, helped us win the game...

Helkowski put three down inside the 20, Trau remains perfect on PAT's STD, a blocked punt, good coverage etc.

job done well today.

Go Spiders!

I can't believe Ambrose didn't make an adjustment and return the pooch kicks.

I can't believe Ambrose didn't make an adjustment and return the pooch kicks.

it was a puzzling strategy, particularly after watching some of our coverage against Colgate...

w/o researching it, I believe most of the fair catches were between the 25-30 yard line...

Bob Black noted that! most of the kicks were within the 25 yard line and better than a touch back.

We should continue to work the pooch especially if 44 and not 42 continues to kickoff.Obvious strategy for us.

Exactly, going forward better teams will put their ball handlers in the up positions also. He can't kick it over their heads anyway.

Do you remember what happened when Dedmon from W&M moved up to the next layer last year? Though I do think those up guys from Towson should have attempted to advance the ball instead of calling for the FC.
