So far this season, Pack fans have loved what they have seen from their special teams unit.

Freshman placekicker Brandon Talton took Reno by storm on opening night, after kicking a game-winning 56-yard field goal to cap off a 34-31 comeback victory over Purdue.

“I just calmed down, took my steps and kicked it,” Talton said postgame.
