I feel a little sorry for that really clutch UGA field goal kicker.

What's his name, "Hot Rod"? Should have been the hero if there was any justice in this world.

How clutch was it to step up and nail a 50+ yard field goal in the overtime, when you knew your team had to have it?

Good on him.

great story. Walked on prior to 2016, had a lunatic dad try to publicly shame kirby into giving him a scholarship (which we did not), told the kid to work his arse off in the offseason even though we brought in a grad transfer, he worked his tail off, got a scholarship prior to the ND game, and has been lights out all season. Set a school record for touchbacks as well.

Great season for the guy.

Great website, especially if you want to learn all about his HS soccer career.

I feel like football shouldn't have kickers.

That was as clutch of a kick as it gets. The 55 yarder in the Rose Bowl was incredible too.

I wish he could have seen the ball go through the uprights.

RrrrrrodRrrrrrigo Blankenship. (Gotta roll those "R's" when you say it, though.

He's been a great addition. Kirby put him on scholarship just before the ND game. It was a much deserved move.

When I was at UGA I was at boar's head one night and saw Billy Bennett's band "whole lotta angus" play DSOTM. That was pretty sweet.

Dude was money in pressure situations. I think Georgia has had some traditionally good kickers and he looks like next one.

Helluva Mexican kicker. I like that guy. Wish Bama had a kicker like him.

Rodrigo is a beautiful man. Better kicker than that Carlson kid.
