The award is presented to the nation’s top punter
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Redshirt Junior punter Alec Clark has been named to the Ray Guy Award preseason Watch List, the Augusta Sports Council announced on Friday.
Clark, a transfer from Tulane, enter his first season with Florida in 2026. In 2025, Clark played in all 14 games for Tulane, logging 48 punts for a career-best 46.5 yards per punt. Clark had 16 punts that were inside the opponents 20-yard lin, 50-plus yards and fair catches. Clark was named First Team All-AAC in 2025 and was named to the Shriners Children's East-West Bowl 1000 list earlier this month.
The candidates on the list incorporate a broad spectrum of FBS punters and were compiled based on previous Ray Guy Award Semifinalists, 2025 All-American, and All-Conference selections, top performing punters, and 2026 Preseason All-American, and Preseason All-Conference selections.
A final watch list will be announced in early November, and the Ray Guy Award committee will meet to select the ten semifinalists in mid-November and then top three finalists to be announced in late November. After the finalists are named, the voting body will cast ballots again to select the nation's top punter. The winner will be announced live during The Home Depot College Football Awards airing on ESPN in December.
