I posted a reply one page 1 of this post. However the stat came from a Diaz quote in a CIS post:
Coach Speak: Diaz talks BC trick plays and backups earning more time
 
Not sure if this has been brought up before, but hearing this #125 in defensive starting field position stat got me thinking. Our #2 "total defense" ranking is being boosted up at least partially by the fact that our opponents have had amazing field position all season. In many cases they only have the opportunity to drive 50 yards or less, which in turn helps our yards allowed per game AKA "total defense" metric.

That makes sense but at the same time we average 19ppg allowed per game which isn't top 10 but is pretty good considering offenses don't have far to go to get into scoring range.
 
Maybe we need to get a cmr voodoo doll start sticking pins in it make cmr feel as miserable as we do watching the offence and punter.

Check out our defensive ypp. We are elite on that side of the ball right now.

The yips indicates a relatively isolated incident of a person flinching on something they normally are entirely capable of.

If you shank every punt, you don't have the yips, you just suck at punting.

The yips are when you forget how to do something that requires a motor skill, it is extremely common in baseball pitchers. Jon Lester for the Cubs has the yips when it comes to throwing to first base. He's one of the best pitchers in the game but has a mental block throwing to first base.

Feagles went from an All American high school punter to shanking every other punt. He is the definition of the yips

the punting is a problem that has been very underrated since LSU even with the attention its gotten, people thought we could thrive in spite of it , its one of the worst symptoms of the disease we have... if you have good punting you can be a good team that has a great defense and a bad offense, with the punting we've had theres been no shot

No offense but are you seriously suggesting our punting problems have been UNDERRATED around here?
