serious question...I haven't seen him play [the LaTech dude, not Wing, obvs


Allen is great. Wing is good. I think Wing will be as good as Allen in a couple of years (maybe even next year). Wing mis-hits too many. I can only remember one mis-hit for Allen all year.

I think people said that at the time they chose the 3 finalists Wing didnt have the number of punts necessary to qualify.


Completely false. Oregon's punter had less punts than Wing, and he was chosen as a finalist.

Its just something I saw on here. Oh well Wing got robbed and everybody knows it. Many writers have said it.

Oh you poor LSU fans. Wing will be as goods Allen down the road, just not this year. I know it sucks but it's reality.


You should be a ULL fan. Youd fit right in.

The most relevant stat for a punter is net punting.

I see about 1 a game from Wing. When I say mis-hit, I'm talking about line-drives, end over ends, a punt that doesn't make it to the returner and dribbles past them, shanks, etc..

Sometimes these are by design.

These aren't always mis-hits. These are done on purpose a lot.

Only LSU fans would argue their player who wasn't even a finalist is better than the play who won the award.

You dumb, brah. The people who win the award aren't always the best player at that position.
