players and our kids invest.” Campbell also addressed concerns over punt returns. Against Texas Tech, the Cyclones were pinned inside the 11-yard line five times, including one time at the 4-yard line. “It’s fluid,” Campbell said. “Every game’s different, and cer- tainly every situation’s different.” Tarique Milton was the returner on those plays, when he opted to wave for a fair catch rather than let the ball bounce. Letting the ball bounce could have resulted in a touchback, giving the Cyclones the ball at their own 20-yard line, or it could be downed wherever the ball is touched or rolls to a stop. The risk/reward calculation can be tough on the fly. Milton said on Saturday he is told to let the ball bounce if it goes over his head inside the 10-yard line.
