Title: As bad as that on-side recovery was Post by: BanditVol on September 25, 2022, 08:51:50 EDT I'm just glad no. 6 made the tackle, as he was the only defender that could do so :crazy:
Or is there a rule that it can't be advanced? It seems there is. This site claims that between 2014-2000, 23.8% of onside kicks were recovered. That's almost one in four. Much higher than I would have thought. https://profound-answers.com/are-you-allowed-to-advance-an-onside-kick/ Title: Re: As bad as that on-side recovery was Post by: PirateVOL on September 25, 2022, 01:57:18 EDT I'm just glad no. 6 made the tackle, as he was the only defender that could do so :crazy: The rule is that you can't advance itOr is there a rule that it can't be advanced?

That play came to mind, and I was unsure of the rule.
