Hey Swedenburg...

It was never fun to be punting a bunch. Usually meant we were getting our tails handed to us.
However on the plus side, you usually got the opportunity to be interviewed after the game. Rare occurrence.
I remember when we played Texas A&M in 2012 at home (the "white out" game) and Johnny Manziel made us look absolutely stupid. I had a pretty good game. Somewhere around a 44-45 yard average I think. John Correro requested to interview me after the game. Now this was pretty cool to me because I had grown up listening to the Jack Crystal and John Correro combo. The typical - Crystal - "5 minutes left in the quarter. Looks as if the bulldogs have a penalty. Let's go down to John Correro to get some insight." Correro - "Yeah Jack looks like we've got a penalty. Back to you Jack." was always acted out at the Swedenburg household.
Anyways, I walk out of the locker room and meet John under the goalposts. Before the recording started, John looks at me and with a pissed off/deflated voice says, "Well obviously if we're interviewing you it means we got our @$$ kicked". He then immediately went to his normal radio voice and began the interview. I had to try so hard to keep myself composed and not bust out laughing during the interview. Priceless.

I know we already had the Ask Swede thread, but I have a question or two:
What's the fewest amount of times you punted in a game?
Did you ever have a game like the Arkansas punter, in '16 I think, where he came to DWS but never saw the field?

Glad to answer any questions good sir.
We didn't punt any when we played Troy in 2013. Minus the games that Mullen benched me, the only other one I recall was maybe when we played Arkansas at home one year. I can't remember 100% though.
