Furthermore, the AAC made a name for itself in the return game last season – Houston corner back Marcus Jones, ranked fourth in combined kick returns (884 yards) and punt returns (averaging 14.4 returns a game), ranked second in kickoff return touchdowns (2) and led the nation in punt return touchdowns (2).
Cincinnati running back Ryan Montgomery, SMU safety Bryan Massey and South Florida freshman running back Brian Battie all also ranked nationally in various return game categories.
