Method
- Every kicker who played in the American since 2004, ranked by field goals made over his games there while his school was a member. Bowl and playoff games count.
- A kicker is in a box score only in a game he kicks a field goal or an extra point, not one he only kicks off in, so his games aren’t counted.
- The numbers here start in 2004, so a kicker who played in the American before then isn't here.
