2021 College Field Goal Percentage Leaders

Field goal percentage is field goals made divided by attempts. It is the most familiar kicking number, but it treats a 25-yarder and a 55-yarder the same, so it flatters kickers who mostly attempt short kicks.

Compare it with MAKE, which adjusts for distance and weather, before deciding who kicked best. In 2021, Tyler Loop (100.0%) led college football kickers in field goal percentage, ahead of Chandler Staton (95.0%) and Nate Needham (95.0%). 120 kickers qualify (minimum 10 field goal attempts). The median qualified kicker had 77.3%.
