MyBloodIsRed16 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Almost faught a guy at the MSU game when DPe waved people off on a punt then took it for a long return. They called it back as a fair catch and it wasn't even close. 1 Quote Link to comment

Pierson-El saved so many Riley games from being a complete joke with special teams points. Wish he would have been a better receiver though. He only returned punts for TDs for Bo in 2014. He wasn't the same after that knee injury. Averaged 17.5 per punt return on 34 returns his freshman year, then just 6.9 on 33 returns the last 3 years of his career. https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/demornay-pierson-el-1.html Stuff like that is why I always worry some with knee injuries for explosive guys, like Fidone. Some come back better than ever sure but some don't like Pierson-El. It's not the slam dunk they ever come back the same like a lot of folks think it is. 1 Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 So, per William Hill, we play the teams expected to win the MAC, the Big XII and the Big Ten in a three-week stretch. Cool. 5 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted June 2, 2021 Author Share Posted June 2, 2021 The stat totals aren't really that applicable as (I assume) that is more total games than a usual season. But still kind of interesting. Quote Link to comment
