No. 2 Indiana football kicker Nico Radicic was named the winner of the Big Ten’s Bakken Andersen Kicker of the Year award, per an official release from the conference.

Radicic, in his third season with the program, went 70/70 on extra points and hit on all 13 of his field goal attempts on the season including six from 20-29 yards, three from 30-39 yards and four from 40-49 yards. In total, he’s scored 109 points on the season, a bump from last year’s 99 points.

This proved remarkably important during Indiana’s road win over Oregon when he hit on both of his field goal attempts including one from 42 yards out, his second longest field goal of the season. His longest, a 46-yarder, came on the road against Maryland.

He was named Second Team All-Big Ten by the league’s coaches, just behind Maryland’s Sean O’Haire and was named First Team All-Big Ten by the league’s media.
