Michigan's special teams play
Michigan's special teams play has been spotty this year, but the Journell suspension should tip the table to Michigan's favor. Without the suspension, I would have put the special teams at about even or a slight edge for VT.
There's lots of good info on the site. Ryan did a great job.
I'm not going to steal their (Shoe and Ryan's) thunder, but those who have interest in the VT kicking situation would do well to give this article a read.
