I read where Thomas Olmstead's one punt - which was blocked - was not ruled a punt because he never made contact with the ball.
Thanks to the coach's show on SunSports (3:30 p.m. Thursdays on DirecTV Channel 632) and DirecTV TiVO, I discovered the initial call was correct. It was a punt.
Of course, the ball traveled about one foot into the body of one of two UAB blockers, but it did come off Olmstead's foot. Barely.
I wonder whether the stats will be revised again, based on this video.
