Sullivan, a three-year starter for Akron, averaged 43.3 yards for six punts in the Zips' season opener last week against Purdue.
Last year, he averaged 40.2 yards for 63 punts, 11 of them being downed inside the 20. As a sophomore, he averaged 42.2 yards in 41 punts.
The Ray Guy Award watch list will be narrowed to 10 semifinalists to be announced in early November. A national selection committee then will vote for three finalists. The winner will be announced Dec. 8 as part of the Home Depot College Football Awards Show in Orlando, Fla.
Hall lost for season
BEAVER FALLS, Pa. -- Brian Hall, a senior linebacker for the Geneva College football team, suffered a broken fibula in his right leg in the Golden Tornadoes' 20-14 win over Bethel (Tenn.) Saturday, and will be sidelined for the rest of the season.
Hall, Geneva's leading tackler the past three years, entered this season ranked No. 6 in career tackles with 105.
Because Hall's injury occurred in the second game of the season (Geneva is 2-0), he will be able to take a medical redshirt for this year and return to the team next season.
