Ole Miss sophomore kicker Luke Logan was named SEC Special Teams Player of the Week after his performance against Vanderbilt, the league office announced Monday. This is the second time he has received the honor in the 2018 season.

Logan connected on all five of his field goal attempts, including the game-tying field goal with 40 seconds remaining to send the game into overtime. Logan hit from 32, 20, 22, 35 and 32 yards out in the 36-29 loss in Nashville. He was also a perfect 2-for-2 on PAT attempts.

The Hattiesburg, Mississippi native was dubbed the Co-Special Teams Player of the Week in the first week of the season after going 4-of-4 in the 47-27 win over Texas Tech.

Logan has been a reliable starting placekicker after replacing one of the program’s all-time greats, Gary Wunderlich. He is 21-for-26 (80.8 percent) on the season with a long of 40 yards. Logan is also a near-perfect 45-for-46 on PAT attempts.

The 21 field goals made put Logan at No. 3 on the Rebels’ single-season charts, one behind Wunderlich’s career-best of 22 (2016) and four behind the program record of 25 set by Jonathan Nichols in 2003.

Logan has tacked 108 points on the board for the Rebels in 2018, making him the SEC’s leading scorer on the year. That mark also ranks fifth in the nation and third all-time in Ole Miss single-season history behind Wunderlich’s 120 (2015) and Nichols’ 124 (2003).

Logan ranks fifth in FBS and first in the SEC in per-game scoring at 9.8 points per contest. He’s second in the SEC and fourth nationally with 1.91 field goals per game.

Ole Miss closes out the regular season Thursday night in the annual Egg Bowl game against Mississippi State. Kickoff is set for 6:30 p.m. on ESPN.
