[tps_title]SPECIAL TEAMS AND THE REST[/tps_title]
AREAS OF NEEDED IMPROVEMENT …
KICKOFF RETURNS
Ranked No. 8, 19.5 yards a return. No. 1: Colorado (27.3). No. 12 USC (12.5).
PUNTING
Ranked No. 7, 36.3 yards a punt. No. 1: USC (41.1). No. 12: Washington State (27.5).
PENALTIES
Ranked No. 7, 53 yards a game. No. 1: Wash (31). No. 12: Stanford (81).
NOTES: The punting stat is a skewed because it includes Anu Solomon’s 12-yard pooch punt last week at Nevada. Senior punter Drew Riggleman is averaging 40.8 yards a punt with two of his six punts landing inside the 20. Not bad. … Arizona had only three penalties for 30 yards at Nevada.
