I'm seeing the punts as 12.  Are you not counting the blocked punts?

Tables act strangely here. I can't get them to format correctly when I copy-paste them on my laptop. However, when I copy them from the Google Sheets app on my phone, the formatting is perfect. Any advice?

Fearless was the closest to the punt return yardage without going over, so he gets the bonus.



We head to Seattle for Week 3 of the contest. Husky Stadium has been rebuilt since we last came here, but even after the reconstruction you can get Ivar's clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl. For my money, this is the best in-stadium eating in college football.

The Big Ten's marquee game is there this week. The Michigan State Spartans head out there to show the world that they aren't the flash in the pan many suspect that they are after losing all-everything Kenneth Walker to graduation. 

Q: How many RUSHING yards will Michigan State have at Washington?

Deadline is Saturday, September 17 at 6:30 PM CDT.  Good hunting.

UPDATE: After consulting the NCAA Statistician's Manual for football, I have revised the number of punts in the game to 12.

Per the ESPN box score, the punters were charged with only 10 punts, yet 12 were in the team totals. The manual offers the following advice:


Quote
SECTION 7—BLOCKED PUNTS 
Article 1. A blocked punt is recorded as a “Team” entry (except when a properly centered ball is fumbled) and not charged against the individual kicker. Also, charge one punt for zero yards to assure that the blocked punt is included under “Times Kicked” in team totals.


Given this is how blocked punts are officially scored, I have adjusted the scores.

(As a side note, Kenneth Walker played on my son's 11-12 year olds "Pee Wee" team.  He was a monster then as well.  Not big, but a solid kid.  Almost housed every handoff.  He was nicknamed "Thudershoes Walker".  Ellendale Bears, Bartlett, TN)
