Riley Sure To Break Kick Record
Auburn star John Riley, 6-foot-178 and from Abbeville, Alabama, set a Southeastern Conference kicking record by scoring four field goals in a game. He already has 15 career field goals and, with seven games left this season and 10 as a senior, is positioned to break Auburn’s career record of 19. Riley’s leg strength yields frequent 50 yard-plus attempts and a strong possibility of extending the Tigers’ scoring options.
