Jake Verity of Bremen kicked a 63-yard field goal that turned out to be the difference in a 17-14 victory over Rockmart. "Crazy," Bremen coach Scott Hodges said when asked what it was like on the sidelines watching a 63-yarder go through the uprights. "It set the tone for the rest of the game." Verity's kick came on a free kick, same as the state record of 67 made in 1999. Here are field goals of more than 55 yards through Georgia history. The list is compiled from the Georgia High School Football Historians Association and other sources.
