Brkic, a junior from Chardon, Ohio, leads the nation in long‐distance field goals, connecting five times from at least 50 yards out. He got off to a quick start, with three of them in the season opener, tying the all‐time FBS record for 50+ FGs in a single game. He connected from 56 yards in each of the first two games of the year, marking the longest Sooner field goals in over 40 years. In addition to his 17‐for‐23 FG campaign, he is perfect on 48 PATs, extending his career‐long streak to 150‐for‐150.

Cairo Santos converted every field goal he attempted in the 2012-13 season, going a perfect 21-for-21. That makes him just the second kicker in FBS history to stay perfect throughout a season in which he attempted 20 or more field goals, joining 1996 Groza winner Marc Primanti. Twelve of those kicks came from 40 or more yards, the most in the nation, including scores from 57 and 54 yards out. The 57 yard kick is the longest in Tulane history. Santos was 26-for-27 on PATs, with a blocked kick in the season opener, the only blemish on an otherwise perfect season.
