A standout in both football and basketball, Blundin once dunked on The Dan Patrick Show blogger Andrew "McLovin" Perloff who played at Lower Merion High School.
Blundin then developed a serious bacterial infection in his throwing arm that forced him to miss the next two games, a win over Navy and a narrow road loss to highly ranked Georgia Tech.
Although backup Bobby Goodman performed well, especially against Georgia Tech, coach George Welsh did not hesitate to restore Blundin as the starter.
The Cavaliers finished the regular season 8–2–1 and were invited to the Gator Bowl, where they suffered a lopsided loss to the Oklahoma Sooners.
Blundin's most noteworthy accomplishment during his college career was that he threw 224 passes over the entire 1991 regular season without throwing a single interception.
