...back it up with a bunch of examples over 11 years - not 1 or 2 outliers in a decade.
Typical.
Here's one off the top of my head, 2014 on the road vs Virginia. We had a drive stall inside the UVa 35 yd line (might've been the 32 yd line). Bronco punted instead of kicking the FG, the punt went into the end zone and was spotted on the 20 yd for a net gain of 12 yds.
We lost the game by a FG.
