Edmiston was also named to the Ray Guy Award Ongoing Watch List.

"It means a lot," the junior said on Monday. "Like, it's a good accomplishment. It was one of my goals to be named on the watch list and get added to a Ray's 8 this year. Knowing I accomplished my goal is a good feeling, but also, I can't put all my attention on it. It's good to have, but I got to keep focusing and even getting better to help our my team."

Edmiston, a native of Ocean Springs, Miss. had a career day for the Brown and Gold against Colorado State. He averaged over 50 yards per punt in the contest with a punt of 65 yards, for the second longest of his career. He also pinned the Rams inside their 20-yard line a total of five times.

This season, Edmiston is averaging 45.3 yards per punt and has pinned opponents inside the 20-yard line 16 times.
