I hope these things happen:

1) Mullen goes ULTRA conservative on the special teams (Don't kick to them so they can return it....this cant happen.)
2) Defense - I get we are gonna rotate, but get P Smith and C Jones in there together some.
3) Dak gon' Dak. Let Dak be Dak. We all think we have a star here...let him win it.

Question - Do y'all really think is so consistent that he doesn't try to kick out of the endzone every kickoff?

I'm not sure...he probably tries every time. It doesn't matter to me. I hope they squib it if they have to.

I think the return game is where the superior athletes shine...and we shouldn't allow that as a possibility.

Also, meant to add :

4) Play conservative on punt retunr...dont allow a fake punt to beat us.

I'm more concerned about returns on punts and our punt returner trying to field a punt running backwards because the punt goes 10 yards more than he expects.

Yes, he kicked one into the stands, he has a huge leg with no accuracy. The Goal-line kicks are intentional.

I do not think he is that consistent. But, you can tell from the way he is kicking through the ball when he is trying to loft it up to around the 1 or so and when he is trying to kick the hell out of it.

It's very obvious when he tried to kick it out of the end zone and when he doesn't. And he usually doesn't.

I just hope he doesn't aim for the goal posts.

Bell tries to kick it out everytime. Sometimes he does. Sometimes he doesn't. There's also some aiming involved. Usually you will see us either kick it to the left or right side of the field. In last week's case, Bell had a nice little breeze behind him for the most part so consequently, he kicked it out of the stadium.

LSU's punt and kick returns looked pretty pedestrian last week. No Honey Badger back there that I saw.
