‘Huge emphasis on coverage’: Expect special teams to play major role in Boise State-Troy game

Offense, defense, special teams.

It always gets mentioned last, and sometimes they are the plays that have fans going to the refrigerator or hitting the concession stands. But trust us, the kicking game will be something to watch Saturday.

Boise State and Troy boast two of the best return units in college football, and those could provide the edge when both kick off their seasons (pardon the pun).

It was evident when they played last season. Boise State’s Avery Williams had an 81-yard punt return for a touchdown to put the Broncos on the board in the first quarter.
