98% of kicks were touchbacks? That will shut down the opppsing teams ability to make big plays on returns. That Rocks.

High schools kick off from the 40 and if the ball reaches the end zone, it can not be run back. It is a little easier to get touchbacks in HS.
Still has to be an upgrade to Lincoln after last year. Hopefully Lincoln will return to form and all Michael to red-shirt and have four years left.

Lawdy, to actually see the pig fly toward the endzone.
And, of all things, clear the LOS on FG tries!
