A Nebraska punter was named to a preseason watch list on Wednesday. Punter Brian Buschini was among 50 punters named to the 2023 Ray Guy Award.

The Ray Guy Award is presented yearly to the nation’s top collegiate punter. This is the second season that Buschini was named to the preseason watchlist.

Last season the Montana transfer averaged 44.0 yards per punt, which was good enough for 25th nationally. He had 16 punts that traveled longer than 50 yards.

Nebraska has never had a punter win the Ray Guy Award, which has been given every year since 2000. Last season it was won by Rutgers punter Adam Korsak, who is now kicking for the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
