2014 College 50+ Yard Punt Percentage Leaders
The share of a punter's punts (blocked ones excluded) that went at least 50 yards. It removes volume from the comparison.
A strong leg, not a guarantee of good field position. In 2014, Drew Riggleman (42.0%) led college football punters in 50+ yard punt percentage, ahead of Austin Rehkow (38.9%) and JK Scott (37.5%). 125 punters qualify (minimum 30 punts). The median qualified punter had 17.6%.
