Entering the 2023 season, Browning's senior year, he was named to both the Lou Groza Award watchlist for best kicker nationally and to the Ray Guy Award watchlist for best punter nationally, being the only player selected for both.^[5] He ended up making 15 of 22 field goal attempts and all 23 of his extra point attempts, being the team scoring leader while also making 54 punts for 2,449 yards, with his 45.4 average being the seventh-best in team history.^[2] A team captain, he was a semifinalist for the Ray Guy Award and was a second-team All-MW selection at punter.^[2] He set a SDSU and MW record with a successful 61-yard field goal attempt and also set his school's single-game field goal record with four.^[7] He was named the MW Special Teams Player of the Week three times during the season and finished his stint at SDSU having received the award five times.^[7]
