GoFrogs: Kell Named to Lou Groza Award Watch List
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- TCU's Griffin Kell has been named to the watch list for the Lou Groza Award, presented annually to the nation's top place-kicker.
Kell was First-Team All-Big 12 last season as he went 17-of-19 on field goals, including a 40-yard kick as time expired to beat Baylor, 29-28, and provide one of the nation's most memorable plays of the year.
Kell's 89.5 made percentage tied for 14th nationally, while his 12 consecutive makes equaled the fifth-best streak in TCU history. He had a career long 54-yard field goal against Iowa State and made a season-best three field goals in the 43-40 double-overtime win over Oklahoma State. His fourth quarter 33-yard field goal provided TCU's final points in the 51-45 College Football Playoff Semifinal win over Michigan.
TCU's Michael Reeder won the 1995 Lou Groza Award.
