College career
Little played college football at Arkansas. He was the team's starting placekicker for each of his three seasons, from 2021 to 2023.
During his freshman season, Little earned SEC Freshman of the Week twice and SEC Special Teams Player of the Week once. He made a game-winning field goal against LSU on November 13, 2021, and finished the season having missed only four field goals out of 24 attempts. He was named a Freshman All-American by the Football Writers Association of America, Pro Football Focus, and The Athletic. His sophomore season saw him convert 13 of his 16 field goal attempts with a long of 51 yards, which he made in the second quarter of Arkansas's game against Mississippi State. His 89 total points ranked most on the team. Prior to the 2023 season, he was named to the Wuerffel Trophy watchlist; he finished that year going 20-for-24 on field goals and making all 33 extra points he attempted. He set a new career long when he converted a 56-yard kick against Ole Miss on October 7, 2023, and was named to the all-SEC First Team as a kickoff specialist.
He finished at Arkansas with a career field goal percentage of 82.8%, the highest of any placekicker in Arkansas history, and made every extra point he attempted. He participated in two bowl games with the Razorbacks: wins over Penn State in the 2022 Outback Bowl and Kansas in the 2022 Liberty Bowl. He made a donation to Down Syndrome Connection of Northwest Arkansas for every kick he made, ultimately totaling $1,460, and was featured on Good Morning America as a result.
Little opted to forgo his senior season and declared for the NFL Draft on December 1, 2023. Mel Kiper Jr., an NFL Draft analyst with ESPN, named Little the top kicking prospect of his draft class. He was one of two kickers invited to play in the East-West Shrine Bowl, alongside Missouri's Harrison Mevis, and made two field goals during the game, one from 26 yards in the second quarter and another from 48 yards in the fourth quarter.
