One player that hasn't been talked about much all season


Dec 21, 2020, 11:38 AM

is Spiers. His punting has been so much better than in the past. He has been able to flip field position regularly.

We have punted? Who knew?

Actually, it just isn't his distance but he has been able to pin them back deep even when not going all-out for distance. Control is better too.

People on here must watch different games then me. Yes he's been better this year than the past few years but he has still be very inconsistent. He average 28 yards per punt against VT a few weeks ago, and that wasn't from trying to pin them with good control. The middle of the season he was punting pretty well, but the last few games feel like he reverted to previous years.

Sometimes he gets a good kick that is 50 yards in the air and other times he shanks it 20 yards, and sometimes get lucky with a bounce.

It feels like nearly every week the opposing team has the better punter.

You have apparently only watched one game all season.

His only shanked punt this season was against VT for like 12 yards or something.

Then he had another that he did pin them inside the 15 that was short on distance.

His NET yardage is the best thing about his punting because he doesn't always hit them for 50+ but his hangtime almost always eliminates a lot of space for the return man to do much.

He has the 2nd best average in Clemson history. Chris Gardocki’s senior year he averaged 44.5 and Spiers averaged 44.1 this year despite the bad game against Virginia Tech which oh by the way had gale force winds the entire game!

It has been better than previous years but looks like we are still 85th in Net punting according to the NCAA stats.
