Every kicker who played at Kentucky since 2004, ranked by field goals made over his games there. 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 at Kentucky before then isn't here.
A decade counts his field goals made at Kentucky in its seasons.
The record book's numbers are the school's own. Where they and the box scores differ for one player, the box scores are missing a game or count bowls another way.
A kicker still playing at Kentucky is counted at tonight's numbers against the record book's, which run through the 2025 season.
