The actual structure of the goal posts may vary, but by rule the only difference is the distance between the uprights. In college (and the NFL), they are 18 feet 6 inches apart. In high school, they are 23 feet 4 inches apart.

Closer to the field of play? No. In both college and the NFL, the goalpost is situated at the back of the end zone, which is always 10 yards deep.
