Kickers and punters aren’t even football players. They are soccer players who step onto the field maybe 5 times a game. If you think about it, kicking is comparative to if in baseball you played rock paper scissors to determine if you get half a run after crossing the plate.

Once went to a practice during spring football where everyone is practicing meanwhile the special teams is having a glorified pass, punt, and kick contest on the next field. Trying to see who can kick the ball into a garbage can, and of course taking a knee and getting much deserved water.

Only 5 times per game ? Looking at just last years Iron Bowl Alabama had a kicker on the field 20 times. Way more than 5

5 times for a punter/ 5 times for a kicker. Multiply that by 2 for 2 teams.

I think it’s funny this is a tread about Nebraska and the most relevant thing is an argument about how much kickers work.

No.... 20 times a game by Alabama alone in that game. You do realize most drives end in 1 kick and scoring drives end in 2 kicks by 1 team right ? Most teams put a kicker on the field 15+ plays a game.
