Punters are unsung heroes in football. They spend more time being critiqued for their mistakes than praised for any successes.
But Army punter Nick Schrage was a hero in West Point, New York on Saturday.
The Buffalo Bulls (0-2) looked like they were going to upset the United States Military Academy for a second straight year, in a game where they were outmatched and regarded as 15 point underdogs. After taking a 17-7 lead into the fourth quarter, the Bulls eventually fell 21-17 to the Army Black Knights (2-0). Army senior quarterback Ahmad Bradshaw was the star of the game for the triple option offense and finished with 25 carries for 147 yards and a touchdown.
