Jacob Ulrich brings big-leg upside to Oklahoma’s punter battle
Jacob Ulrich is a big-bodied, high-upside punter whose 2026 battle at Oklahoma is worth watching because his 2024 Louisville season showed real field-flipping ability: in the 2024 season, he averaged 45.4 yards on 75 punts, placed 27 inside the 20, and had only five touchbacks. Oklahoma sources also note he handles holding duties and remains in a tight competition for the starting job, which matters for trust and consistency in pressure moments. If your team wants a punter with power, hang time potential, and special-teams versatility, Ulrich checks those boxes.
