The solution to our defensive woes

[Xanusus]

We are perfect on onsides kicks. Since the defense is going to let the other team score anyways, let's take them out of the equation like this team does.



They were up 29-0 before the other team even got its first offensive series.

Story about it here.

Agree.  Onsides every kick.  So what if they get the ball at the 40.  They'll score in less time giving our offense even more opportunities.

Actually, I have to agree at this point.

As long as Ted Roof is at Auburn, and does nothing to change anything with his 120th ranked D, then THIS ^^^

I was thinking the same thing a couple days ago...I mean, what would it hurt? They'll get the ball on their own 40, instead of their own 20. Just go for it, save the defenders until later in the game...like the last kickoff (kick that one deep).

I also vote for telling the punter that from now on his Saturday's will be freed up.

Givign them a short field could solve some of the yardage-surrendered problems
