BYU football: B-minus for special teams from coach Kelly Poppinga

Special teams coach Kelly Poppinga had this assessment on Tuesday morning regarding special teams play:

"A lot to improve on, but I thought for the first game we did some good things," Poppinga said. "We have 10 goals that we try to reach every single game, and we reached seven of those 10. And if we make a tackle on that last kickoff, we reach that goal as well. So I think that the punt team performed well. A lot had to do with the wind during the game, was the reason we performed well. Jonny kicked the ball well, but the wind helped him out with a couple of those punts.
