In case you are new, the deal here is that I came up with a system to evaluate special teams that is zero-based. The idea is that you don't really care if you get the ball after a kickoff on the 24 or 27...you want to know about plays with significant field position, possession, or scoring impact. Positive impact plays get positive points and negative plays get negative points. They don't necessarily balance out... 50 yard fair caught punt is +1 for the punting team and 0 for the receiving team.
You can go back and read here to see the scoring system I use.
The meditative wisdom of the monks was tested with our performance on special teams Saturday. And even then, the system probably gave BG a break, since those big punt returns are still only -1 based on how it is set up. Even so, it was BG's worst since Kent in 2011, which was also -6. Before that, it is 2010 and Temple at -7, which is the worst ever recorded.
On the opposite side, UT's huge score was the same as Wisconsin last year at +13 and makes it tied for the worst game since this system was "invented" in 2009.
