Why LSU feels more confident in its special teams than a year ago

Zach Von Rosenberg sees a difference in the LSU special teams unit. He sees more progress at this point in August than there was a year ago.

Much of that is because Greg McMahon is officially special teams coach and not an analyst who can't work directly with the players. Some of it is from Von Rosenberg and other players having more experience to build on.

Regardless of how or why, Von Rosenberg thinks the unit is in better shape with a week before the season. It's a unit with four different guys playing various roles in the kicking and punting games and every positional starter starting on at least one special teams group.
