Jonathan Nichols had a tremendous 2003 season, as he led the Rebels with 124 points to set a new Ole Miss season scoring record, bettering the previous mark of 102 by RB Deuce McAllister (1997-2000) in 2000. Jonathan also led the SEC and ranked ninth nationally in scoring, averaging 9.5 points per game and led the SEC in field goal percentage (86.2), having made 25-of-29 attempts. He was 3-of-4 on field goals from 50 yards or more to become the first kicker in school history to hit three field goals of 50 yards or more in a season. Ranked second in the SEC and fourth in the nation in field goals made per game (1.92). His 25 field goals also set a new Ole Miss season record.

Arthur Carmody kicked the football extremely accurately during the 2006 season. On three separate occasions this year, Carmody was a perfect 3-for-3 in field goals, helping his team win all three games. He made 21 of 25 field goals and was successful on all of his 60 PAT attempts. The best highlight of the seasons may have been Louisville’s first appearance in a BCS bowl. Carmody helped lead Louisville to its first FedEx Orange Bowl victory as the Cardinals defeated Wake Forest 24-13.

Ka’imi Fairbairn has proven to be one of the top football players in the illustrious history of UCLA. On November 13, 2015, the senior place-kicker made 4 field goals against Washington State, which not only set a career record for most points scored at UCLA but also represented the most career points scored in conference history. Fairbairn’s 410 career points is 20 more than the previous career scoring leader for UCLA and the Pacific Coast Conference, which was held by UCLA kicker, John Lee since 1985 and was deemed untouchable. During the 2015 season, Fairbairn made 20 out of his 23 field goal attempts and was perfect on his 44 after touchdown kicks. Fairbairn’s 104 points for 2015 are top among the Bruins and ranks third in the Pac-12 conference.
