Reichard was the only kicker in the SEC to not miss a single field goal try, converting 14-of-14 attempts. He was also one of six in the conference to hit 100 percent of his point after attempts. But his 84 attempts far exceeded second (Evan McPherson, Florida, 52 attempts) and third (Jack Podlesny, Georgia, 38 attempts).
Still, there’s a reason these postseason lists exists as well. If Reichard strings together another quality season, he’ll almost certainly make a move up. For now, he’ll just have to use it as motivation.
