Special Teams

[SCSmokey]

I was thinking "when is the last time we ran a kickoff or punt back for a TD or the last time we blocked a punt?" Can anyone recall either of these happening last season? And what are your opinions about why some teams (i.e. Va Tech, Miami, FSU) are known for that and most are not. Coaching? Team speed? Both?

The last time we returned a KO for a TD was against SC in 2004. Bret Smith took one back on an onside kick. In 2002 Mark Jones returned a kick about 90 yards for a TD against Alabama.
