BATON ROUGE – LSU senior punter Jay Bramblett has been named to the watch list for the Ray Guy Award, which is presented annually to top punter in college football.
Bramblett enters his second year at LSU after transferring from Notre Dame, and he enters the 2023 season with a career 44.2 punting average.
Bramblett earned second-team Academic All-American honors in 2022, after he averaged 44.5 yards on 49 punts in his first season with the Tigers. That was the second best average in the Southeastern Conference and 11th best in the country.
Bramblett’s 44.5 per punt average also ranked as the seventh-best in program history.
Bramblett is pursuing a master’s degree at LSU in leadership and human resource development, and he was named to the National Football Foundation’s Hampshire Honor Society during the spring.
The Ray Guy Award is the fifth of 16 national award watch lists that will be announced over the next two weeks.
