Dual punt returners

[FlabLoser]

What was up with sending 2 guys back to catch the punt?

putting a blocker in better position to block for the returner.

this called a "safe return".

That we had 2 guys back there to prevent a horrible punt with no hang time rolling another 20 yards because one returner couldn't get to it in time.

I was thinking because he always kicked low & to the sideline. With one guy in the center of the field, there's almost no chance for a return. Also to protect against a fake - a CUSA team playing an SEC team will try almost anything.

I'm surprised they did not try a fake or two.
