SEC media days are usually for head coaches, quarterbacks and star players to have the floor to discuss a wide variety of topics. It's not often that a kicker is invited to the proceedings, but Auburn's Alex McPherson was present for the July 21 edition of SEC media day.
McPherson had some interesting questions and answers during his session, including a query about his favorite kick to date for the Tigers.

"I would say my favorite, I think the best kick I've had in my career was the 53-yarder against A&M in 2023. It was into the wind, which not a lot of people know, but that wind was howling. They called a timeout," McPherson said. "It was still blowing into my face but not as much, and I hit it really well. And to hit a 53 into the wind, that was pretty exciting for me just to give the team a little momentum going into halftime."
McPherson's brother is Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson, who kicked for Florida during his collegiate career. The younger kicker was asked about Auburn's game against Florida this season, and who his brother might support.
"I think it's going to be fun. I think — I mean, I don't know who my brother's going to cheer for, but I would say he's going to be cheering for Auburn. I would hope so," Alex McPherson said.
McPherson also spoke about going to games at The Swamp because his brother played there.
For his career, Alex McPherson has made 40 out of 45 field goal attempts and has converted all 87 extra points.
