Rodrigo Blankenship was not chosen as a finalist for best kicker in the country.

He is 90% on the year, 52/52 on XP, 53 long, and 85% touchbacks.

One of Blankenships misses was a block by the way.

For comparison, Cole Tracy of LSU was chosen, who went 88% on FG, 33/33 on XP, 54 long, and doesn’t even do kickoffs

I honestly don’t understand how you justify this.



Seriously who chooses this:




Over this:

If he didn’t look like such a hipster f@gg0t he probably would have been a finalist.

Oh, I thought he just had the nerd vibe going, didn’t realize it was a contrived hipster thing.

They know he’s going to win the Heisman, so they decided to let other kickers have a chance at glory.

He made a 55 yarder in the Rose Bowl as time expired in Halftime.

What’s lost from the National championship game last year is he made like a 54 yarder last year in overtime

The poeple who are on the panel took one look at Rod Blankenship and refused to consider a Serbian.
Hardly seems fair.

Agreed. Carlson should have won as a SO and JR but lost to seniors both times who were essentially being given career achievement awards, only for whoever votes on the award to decide not to do that anymore when Carlson was a SR last season

I’m an LSU fan, but he’s correct. Blankenship is elite under pressure.

No shite. If Daniel Carlson didn't win the award, it's pointless.
