open the year. |

handling placekicking, punting, and kickoffs? He starts out with a tough road
matchup. |

Watch the Updates this weekend. If he can't go, then Shaun Suisham will
handle the kicking this week. |

| NOTES: |

|
|
|
|
| 1. |
All stats are based on Standard Scoring of 3
points for field goals and 1 point for extra points |
|
|
|
|
(except
for the Bonus Total column which increases 40-49 yard FG's to 4 points, and
FG's of 50 yards and over to 5 points) |
| 2. |
"Attempted" = maximum number of
kicking points the team could have had if they made every kick |
|
|
| 3. |
The
Kdefensive "factors" are the median by which teams allow kicking
points, as compared to their opponents average scoring |
|
(i.e.
smaller numbers under 1.0 equal better kicking defense, larger numbers over
1.0 = not so good) |
