Brown also finished his career with just two missed extra points in 180 career attempts, including a perfect 75-of-75 in his final two seasons.

One of the nation’s most consistent kickers throughout his career, Brown earned All-Big Ten recognition for each of his final three seasons, including honorable-mention accolades by both the coaches and media as a senior in 2017.

Brown also made his mark off the field, as a Senior CLASS Award candidate in 2017 and a nominee for the Wuerffel Trophy and the AFCA Good Works Team. Brown completed his undergraduate work in just 3 ½ years, earning his degree in supply chain management in December.

Brown made a season-high four field goals in a win at Purdue, including a season-long 44-yard field goal. In that game, Brown tied his brother, Kris, on the Nebraska career field goals chart, before passing him to move into second place later in the season.

Brown added two field goals each against Arkansas State and Rutgers, with both of the field goals against Rutgers in the fourth quarter, helping secure a Nebraska victory. Brown was also one of the nation’s best kickoff specialists, hitting 28-of-60 kickoffs for touchbacks.

2016 (Junior)

Brown had two field goals at Indiana, including a 39-yarder in the final minutes to extend Nebraska’s lead in a 27-22 victory. That field goal was the 40th of Brown’s career, making him the fourth Husker with 40 career field goals.

He connected on a pair of field goals against Purdue, including a career-long 51-yard field goal. He made a 35-yard field goal in the fourth quarter at Wisconsin to provide the tying points and send the game to an extra session.

2015 (Sophomore)

Brown made eight straight field goals in non-conference play after missing his first two kicks of the year. Brown had a record-setting day against Southern Miss. He made five first-half field goals, tying an NCAA record for most field goals in a half also held by former Husker Dale Klein. Brown’s five field goals also tied the Memorial Stadium record and included a season-long 50-yarder to lead NU to a 36-28 win.

After a first-quarter miss at Minnesota, he connected on field goals of 45 and 41 yards against the Gophers and did not miss the rest of the year. He finished the year with a streak of 11 straight made field goals, with the first eight of those coming from 40 yards or more.
