The answer to the question most of you are probably asking is: Steve Little #12 Arkansas at 2:14. That kick helped make him a 1st Round pick by the St. Louis Cardinals. Unfortunately he did not pan out in the NFL.
I know the old video would be difficult to find, but, only one of the kicks in video would rate with kicks from old Southwest Conference during 1978 and/or 1979 seasons and, not just one kicker, but THREE! Erxleben of Texas, Franklin of A&M, and Little of Arkansas. Those dudes had hammer-legs. Literally, just crossing the 50 was good enough for 3 points. Look it up.
Van tiffin from Alabama kicked a 56 yard in the hard wind, bare footed to beat auburn with 1 second on the clock and bear almost Benched him for having the flu
young people may not remember or may not know that kickers like Franklin and Little in the 70s were ROUTINELY kicking 60-65 yard field goals so they had to change the rules.
I was on the SUNY Cortland team in 1966 when Bill Shear kicked a then record 61 yard field goal. There is a video of it on RU-vid, but it is not the highest quality.
Last I checked, small college record is 59 yards in 1981 between Fort Lewis College (Durango, Co) at CCC (Colorado Springs and I don't remember if it's Colorado Christian College or Colorado Community College) with 3 seconds left. Ask me how I know!
@@ShawnNHL I played at the Fort 78-81. I grew up play8ng football in east texas. I will never forget the first time we scored. My high school team had played in front of more than 10,000 fans several times and we did not go to any playoffs. At the Fort, when we scored, it was not the roar of the crowd that was heard, rather it was a collective indifference sounding something like "Oh, Wow man". I admit the Canon scared the crap out of me even though I had been warned. Do they still fire off the artillery when there is a score?
@@dalewier9735 Not sure, I go to Western Colorado, which you would've known as Western State. But I have been to Durango to play hockey against FLC, really nice downtown
@@ShawnNHL FLC did not have a hockey team when I was there. They had just gotten a soccer team. Great respect for hockey players. It was the team in CCC (Colorado Springs) that lined up and kicked ass that started the thread. They had the 2nd best team in the nation that year in small college hockey. With three seconds left, the kicker booted a 59 yard FG for the win, pissed but great kick. I think in 1980. Those were the hardest hitting white boys I had ever played. Nobody, on either side of their line, was over 6 feet tall. They even played the single wing. Tight splits, wow I hated playing them. I had played the flex (Dallas Cowboys - 1970s) as a defensive 3 and 5 and triple option as guard on offense, both VERY different than the old single wing. They ran a trap of some kind every play, even cross blocking on passes, I guess to make us think the were running. My 3rd year was the 1st time we ever beat Western State at FLC and THE reason we did was because of Herman Heard. He transferred to Mines the year after (because, and i quote, "Damn, Wier, there ain't no sisters here"!) and was drafted and played as starting running back for KC for about a decade. BEST I ever blocked for. Just so you know: season lift ticket for Purgatory was $125! That's how long ago I am talking about.
