The post-spring confidence meter: special teams

Oregon special teams were three-quarters special in 2015.

Field goal kicker Aidan Schneider was first team all-conference, second in the nation after connecting on 20-22 field goals and 67-67 extra points.

Kickoff specialist Matt Wogan had an astounding 62 touchbacks in 98 kickoffs last season.
