In news that shouldn’t surprise you, Max Duffy is a finalist for The Ray Guy Award, given annually to the best punter in college football. He’ll be competing with Houston’s Dane Roy and Syracuse’s Sterling Hofrichter for the honor, which will be presented on December 12 at The Home Depot College Football Awards Show in Atlanta.
Duffy is Kentucky’s all-time leading punter with 46.54 yards per kick. This season, he’s averaging a nation-best 48.9 yards per punt, and outside of a shank vs. South Carolina, has been incredible. Duffy helped UK control field position against Missouri, bolting a career-long 70-yarder and pinning the Tigers inside the 20 three times.
