Rutgers punter Adam Korsak is dominating the Ray Guy Award weekly honors this season
There hasn’t been much to celebrate in Piscataway the past two years. Rutgers finished last season with a 1-11 record and is off to a 1-5 start this year, most of those losses coming in blowout fashion.
But if there’s been a diamond in the rough this fall, it’s been the play of punter Adam Korsak. The Scarlet Knights punter is having one of the best seasons in college football at his position.
On Tuesday morning, the Ray Guy Award announced that Korsak is this week’s Punter of the Week, marking the third time he’s earned the recognition.
