Karty, a junior from Burlington, North Carolina, became just the fourth kicker in FBS history to stay perfect on field goals through a full season, going 18-for-18 for the first season without a miss since 2013. He didn’t play it safe to get there, leading the country with 13 field goals from at least 40 yards out. Three of those came from over 50, including a 61-yard blast that set a new Cardinal record. It was the longest kick in FBS by five yards and the third-longest FG in the last 10 seasons. He went 5-for-5 on field goals against Arizona State, scoring every point in a 15-14 come-from-behind win.

Dan Bailey put the wraps on a standout career that saw him enter the program as a walk-on and leave OSU as the school’s all-time leading scorer (347 career points with at least two games remaining in his career).  The previous all-time leading scorer was Barry Sanders. Bailey also set a school record with 22 field goals in the 2010 season through the first 11 games. He has handled placekicking duties since midway through the 2007 season and was also responsible for kickoff duties prior to 2009.  Bailey set a school record by hitting his first 182 extra-point attempts before having a kick blocked at Texas. He has hit more extra points than any player in OSU history.
