What about Special Teams?

You hear all the time Offense wins games, but Defense wins championships. You know what you never hear about? SPECIAL TEAMS. No one ever says how important special team are. Why though? They're a huge part of the game, they can make or break you. Especially when you try do some trickery and fake that kick. Here are the top three Special Teams plays from this weekends football that effected the outcome of the football game.

Number Three
Patriots at Colts on Sunday Night Football
Colts try to run the swinging gate on a punt on fourth and three from their own thirty-seven yard line.

That was an epic fail and will more than likely make Fail Friday.


Number Two
#8 Florida @ #6 LSU for a night showdown in Death Valley.
In a tie ball game in the fourth quarter, Les Miles aka the Mad Hatter fakes a field goal and gets six. That play was the final scoring of the game and won LSU the football game.
  
Miles and the boys look like they might be on the path the College Football Playoff if they can keep it up.


Number One
#7 Michigan State @ #12 Michigan all for the Paul Bunyan Trophy
Michigan has this game won and it's over...all they have to do is punt the football away...

Words can not even begin to describe what America was thinking as they watched this play out. At least words that we're actually allowed to use on-air can't describe this outcome. For crying out loud just fall on the ball.

So Offense may win you games and your Defense may win you a championship, but without your Special Teams capitalizing you just got stunned and unhappy fans.
