UCLA Football‘s special teams unit was very underwhelming this season, to say the least.
There was a huge lack of consistency from them, and it costed the Bruins several times throughout the season.
The Bruins had very little success punting the football as they usually alternated between: freshman Austin Kent, and senior Adam Searl. UCLA averaged 35.1 yards per punt.
They were not horrendous, but they definitely did not display the traits we have witnessed from the Bruins in recent years and it was apparent that UCLA’s special teams went in the wrong direction this past season.
