Mike Pouncey Named to 2010 Rimington Watch List

University of Florida senior football player Mike Pouncey (Lakeland, Fla.) was named to the 2010 Spring Watch List for The Rimington Trophy, announced by the committee. The trophy, named after Nebraska's two-time consensus All-America center Dave Rimington, is presented annually to college football’s most outstanding offensive center.
Pouncey will have a chance to keep the award in the family. His twin brother, Maurkice Pouncey, won the 2009 Rimington Trophy. Mike Pouncey has made 28-straight starts on the offensive line, primarily at guard, and will make the transition to center for the 2010 season. He was named AP Second-Team All-American and First-Team All-SEC in 2009 after helping Florida lead the SEC with 3,105 rushing yards on the season. He also earned SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week honors following the Florida State game, in which the Gators accumulated 545 yards of total offense.
