2022 College Onside Kicks Attempted Leaders
Onside kicks are short kickoffs meant to be recovered by the kicking team. Teams try them when behind late.
Only specialists with at least one appear.
College rule: a kickoff touchback, or a fair catch inside the 25, starts the receiving team at its 25, so a touchback is a good result for the kicking team. Kickoff Points Added accounts for the rule, so it is the fair way to compare kickoff specialists across leagues and seasons.
