Georgia Football’s Specialists Aim for Record breaking 2019

The biggest break Georgia football fans got this offseason was the announcement that star kicker, Rodrigo Blankenship would return for his senior season.

In the last two years, Blankenship has annihilated Georgia kicking records left and right.

As a sophomore, he kicked 67 touchbacks, made 20-of-23 field goals, was perfect with 63 PATs, and scored 123 points that season.

Blankenship surpassed Kevin Butler’s 51 touchbacks on a season that year. That was the first record he broke, after that the records started to fall like dominos.

Then in his junior year, Blankenship kicked 82 touchbacks, made 19-of-23 field goals, kicked a perfect 65 PATs, and scored 122 points on the season.
