Gary Cosby Jr.-USA TODAY Sports

Alabama kicker Will Reichard booted a 43-yard field goal in the first quarter of Saturday's Southeastern Conference title game to become the NCAA's all-time leading scorer with 533 career points.

The kick against Georgia with 3:43 left in the period snapped a tie between Reichard and former Navy quarterback Keenan Reynolds, who scored 530 points from 2012-15. Reynolds scored 88 touchdowns and added one two-point conversion.

Reichard, a fifth-year kicker, entered the contest with 290 extra points and 80 field goals.

Reichard also entered Saturday with 104 points this season. He was 18 of 21 on field goals and had made all 50 extra-point attempts.
