2017 College Interception % Leaders

College play-by-play before 2025 does not record where passes went, so depth, direction, ACE and throw maps start in 2025. Counting stats are the official NCAA season lines.

Interceptions per pass attempt. Lower is better.

The 2017 leaders: Jalen Hurts (0.5%), Danny Etling (0.8%), Kwadra Griggs (0.8%).

Interception %

Minimum to rank: 15 pass attempts per team game (the NCAA's minimum for passing efficiency). 118 players.
