2016 College Longest Punts Leaders
Each punter's longest punt of the season in gross yards. Tailwinds, altitude and a punt that rolls can all add yards.
A single punt: it says little about a season. In 2016, Cole Moos (82 yds) led college football punters in longest punts, ahead of Joseph Davidson (82 yds) and Dom Maggio (80 yds). 212 punters qualify. The median qualified punter had 58 yds.
