Who has the stats for starting field position of each team last night?

[Danny J]

Seemed to me that Bama started most of their drives on or around their 40 yard line most of the game while we started at least 5 times inside the 20 and 4 times inside the 15 to the best of my recollection.

One thing is very very clear to me....we must get a FG kicker, must block better on FG's and extra points and we need a guy capable of kicking off to at least or close to 2-3 yards deep in the endzone. Our kicking game except our punter(he is actually pretty decent) is as bad as I can ever remember it.

I was not even sure on the Derby TD we were going to make the extra point.

Looks like we started 9 or 10 drives from our own 20 or LESS. They started 3 from their own 20 or less.

That was my concern all during the fourth quarter. For us to win, we had to flip the field and we didn't.

[Lake City Hog]

Here is a couple of very telling stats:

Punt returns: Number-Yards-TD    4-4-0    0-0-0
   Average Per Return    1.0    0.0
Kickoff returns: Number-Yds-TD    3-62-0    2-23-0
   Average Per Return    20.7    11.5

We actually caught 1 punt(fair catch) and all the rest rolled until downed. A big part of why we started with such bad field position. 7 punts downed inside the 20 yard line!

Thanks Lake City.....


Our special teams must improve...starting inside our own 20 TEN TIMES is not good.
