Season lines from CollegeFootballData, regular season and bowls. Every season here is summed from the game box scores (the source has no season lines for them; a game missing from the box scores is missing here). ‡ Short by two games in 2005 (Oct 29 at USC; Nov 13 vs. Oregon): the source has no box score for them. Kickoff returns are in our source’s box scores from 2009; before that most are missing, so return totals from those years may leave them out.
