And actually, 3 in the top 11 are out of Florida... but, another interesting note is that 5 of the top 10 are from one conference.   :

Lamar woudl be right at the top had it not been for an iffy block in the back call the other day.

Lamar is certainly good enough to soon become the ..recipient of squib kicks. No coach with a brain should kick to him. Doesn't he have two returns already...this year? Good luck against the 'u". Small u on purpose!

Pitt took a chance and got burnt, but did get lucky we had a BIB. Otherwise, yes, they would have looked uber dumb.

Funny part is, it's the blocking on ST this year that has helped our returners, both in the kickoff and punt game. Because Louisville decided to kick to Shields (rightfully so after Lamar ran one back), and that big 6'6" 250lb TE took it back **** near 40 yards lol. Props to the blocking. And we've been awfully clean about blocks in the back this year, minus that one vs Pitt. Huge testament to the improved coaching on ST.
