McIntosh on Groza list
Kentucky senior Craig McIntosh, who has made nearly 80 percent of his field goals the past two years, has been named to the watch list for the Lou Groza Award, which annually honors the nation's best place-kicker.
McIntosh, a Lexington native, led UK in scoring with 56 points last season, making 12 of 14 field goals and 20 of 21 extra points.
In 2010, McIntosh finished second on the team with 67 points, making 11 of 15 field goals and 34 of 35 extra points.
McIntosh owns the second- and third-longest consecutive field-goal streaks in school history with eight and seven, respectively. His longest field goal at UK is 50 yards.
McIntosh is one of six Southeastern Conference place-kickers on the 30-player Groza watch list.
The award is named for Pro Football Hall of Fame kicker Lou "The Toe" Groza. The winner will be announced Dec. 6.
