Thomas Weber, who set a Sun Devil record by successfully kicking the first 17 of his field goals, kicked 22 of his 23 tries during the season. His season long came against UCLA when he connected on a 53 yarder in the Sun Devils 24-20 victory. He has been a major contributor to the Sun Devils 5-1 record in the PAC 10 with two games in which he was a perfect 3 for 3 and he was 4 for 4 in ASU’s defeat of Stanford.

In the 1996 North Carolina State Media Guide, Marc Primanti was quoted as saying, “My job is to make every kick, and I want to do just that.” Primanti did exactly that, making all 20 field goals and 24 extra points that he attempted. This resulted in Primanti being a rather easy choice to receive the Lou Groza Award. Primanti made nine field goals longer than 40 yards, including a 48-yarder against Alabama that was a season-long. He also set an ACC record by making 27 consecutive field goals, stretching back to 1995. After walking onto the Wolfpack team and not playing a down during his first three years in the program, he more than made up for lost time.
