Drew Kaser for Ray Guy

I'm trying to be as unbiased as possible, but I think Evans, Kaser, & Johnny (one of the two since Winston is winning the Heisman). Jake IMO isn't deserving.

He definitely had a pretty underwhelming season

It happens I won't run down any of the kids that won but I feel that several awards were given to the wrong individual.

Disagree. I think most of y'all are looking at this myopically without realizing other guys are pretty damn good too. I don't follow punters and couldn't begin to tell you who deserved it beyond stats. Kaser was good but Hornsey's stats are impressive.

Hornsey: 62 punts, 45.2 ypp, 27 returned, 41.0 net, Long 79 yards
Kaser: 44 punts, 47.4 ypp, 20 returned, 40.7 net, Long 76 yards

Given the raw number of attempts, the better net and while I can't find it, a crazy number of punts inside the 20, he seems pretty deserving.

As far as the others, Cooks put up a ton of stats and was really good the time or two I saw OSU. Not as high profile games as Mike but he's a beast. I bet that was an incredibly close vote all 3 ways. Matthews simply wasn't deserving and saying otherwise is pure homerism. I think he only got an invite because of the hype coming into the season tbh. Don't get me wrong, he is very very good but not like Joeckel last year or anything.

The honest truth about all these awards though, is that team success is a huge factor. If we had played better the last 2 games, we probably would have won a couple.
