2014 College Blocked Punts Leaders
A blocked punt is one the defense stops at the line. Blocks reflect the snap and protection as much as the punter.
Only punters with at least one appear. In 2014, Jaron Bentrude (1) led college football punters in blocked punts, ahead of Riley Dixon (1) and Anthony Melchiori (1). 18 punters qualify.
