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). 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.
