Sometimes football rules sure don't make much sense. So far in the Georgia Tech/UGA game today, UGA's man in the backfield has dropped two punts inside the 10 yard line. Both times they ended up recovering in the end zone and got touchbacks so they then got the ball on the 20. I don't understand why they are getting rewarded for dropping a catch, it makes no sense. In my opinion, if you drop a punt, then chase it back to the end zone where you recover it and are tackled before you can get back out, it should be a safety, 2 points for the punting team and possession back. Instead they get 12 more yards than they would have had had they caught the ball.
