Georgia placekicker Rodrigo Blankenship appeared to be a lock for this year’s Lou Groza Award until he wasn’t.
The junior out of Marietta has not missed an extra point with the Bulldogs and is 18/20 on field goals this season.
However, Blankenship was not one of the top three finalists for the award.
Cole Tracy (LSU), Andre Szmyt (Syracuse), and Cooper Rothe (Wyoming) are up for the honor in 2018.
It is a total shock to see Blankenship miss the cut.
