SMU Kickoff Defense
If they kick to Pollard they're in for a long day. I suspect they'll be kicking short by halftime.

Already given up eight returns of 30+, two of 40+ and 50+, one of 60 and one of 70. 92nd in the country in yards averaged on returns.

In the 2016 game at SMU, Pollard ran a kick off back for a TD. SMU has a lot of concerns coming into this game. Or....was that Henderson?

It was Henderson https://www.youtube.com/results?search_q...off+return

The way you present that makes it seem a lot worse than it is.

So they had 6 returns 40 or less and 1 return between 50 and 60 and one return over 60.

Could've phrased it that way, you're correct. The point is they're 92nd in the country in yards averaged on kickoffs.

Would be much more than 6 returns of 40 or less because lower than thirty is not accounted for, the original way was presented fine. Also that would be two over 60.

I thought it was both of them in the same game (I was there and definitely remember the Henderson return), but maybe Pollard's was the game before.

I really don't expect them to be kicking off much at all.
