David Browndyke was the best and most reliable PK in LSU history. This is not even debatable.

YEP. It makes me laugh to see people actually saying Jackson or Corbello or Juan "PEG LEG" Betanzos was best. These kids must have not been around when Browndyke was playing in the 80's. LMAO.

Best punter....Tommy Davis....Was a coffin corner guru. Turned pro after his third year, when this was not a very common practice.

Without question Corbello. The extra point thing sucked, especially since I lived with the guy. People used to blame me because I used to bring him to Bogies too much.

Kenny?

One Carlos Juan Betanzos - back in the early 80's. He was good. Maybe not the best but he needs to get consideration .

Brownslice - hands down.

Juan was decent until Arnsparger came along and rode his arse all the time. Then he became a head case.

Anyone with the name Brown or a derivative of it is a class winner
