Blake Doud brings big-leg transfer value to Alabama’s punt game
In the 2025 season, Blake Doud stabilized Alabama’s punting job after transferring from Division II Colorado School of Mines, finishing with 52 punts for 2,201 yards and a 42.3-yard average while also handling holding duties on kicks.[6][13] His calling card is hang-time field position and a booming leg—he was praised for flipping the field, and he even had a 55.4-yard performance against South Carolina in 2025.[5][14] He looks like a fit for teams that value consistency, experience, and a specialist who can survive pressure without a lot of drama.[12][6]
