Kyle Brotzman
moved into the all-time Top 25 in NCAA college football history with his
performance last night in Boise State's 59-0 win over New Mexico State in Las
Cruces, New Mexico. Brotzman booted a field goal and seven extra points
for a total of 10 points in the Western Athletic Conference Opener for the
Broncos.
Brotzman has 377 career points and is tied
for #21 all-time with Brett Swenson of
Michigan
State
and Alex Trlica of
Texas
Tech.
Brotzman is just one point away from the great Ron Dayne of
Wisconsin
, 31 points
away from the all-time
Boise
State
record of
408 set by Bronco great Brock Forsey and 48 points short of the all-time NCAA
scoring record for kickers (425 set by
Penn
State
’s Kevin Kelly).
Brotzman would have to produce lots of
field goals over the next nine games to break the all-time NCAA scoring record.
Travis Prentice of Miami (OH) scored 78 touchdowns from 1996-1999 to set
the scoring record of 468 points.
