Smart is 'not concerned' about Blankenship's missed kicks at G-Day

Rodrigo Blankenship missed two field goals and an extra point during Saturday's G-Day game.

But head coach Kirby Smart made sure to point out what Blankenship did do in the intrasquad scrimmage after a reporter asked if he was concerned about the performance.

“He made a lot field goals, too,” Smart said. “The extra point is probably the biggest thing but we had a backup snapper in there and not his holder.”

Blankenship missed field goals from 49 and 40 yards out. He also made kicks from 19, 33, 34 and 28 yards. The 28-yarder Blankenship made came with 1:03 remaining in the game in what amounted to a simulated pressure situation.
