2021 College 50+ Yard Field Goals Leaders
Kicks from 50 yards and beyond are the hardest routine kicks in football, and the number of them a kicker makes shows both range and coaching trust.
Ties go to the kicker with fewer attempts. Check attempts before crowning anyone: a coach who never tries a 55-yarder leaves his kicker off this list. In 2021, Cade York (5) led college football kickers in 50+ yard field goals, ahead of Gabe Brkic (5) and Cole Becker (4). 107 kickers qualify.
