Created by the Palm Beach County Sports Commission in 1992, the Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award stands today as the most prestigious award for collegiate kickers. The Lou Groza Award, presented by the Orange Bowl Committee, is given annually to the nation’s top collegiate place-kicker in the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS). The recipient is determined by a voting panel that includes NCAA Division I football head coaches, sportswriters, sportscasters, conference representatives, professional kickers, and previous award winners.
