Texas puts 4 players on preseason AP All-America team; 14 of the 27 first-team
picks are from SEC
By ERIC OLSON
AP College Football Writer
Texas leads all team s with four players named to the preseason Associated
Press All-America team announced Tuesday and the Southeastern Conference has 14
of the 27 first-team selections on the eve of the college football season.
The Big Ten has eight players on the first team, led by Oregon quarterback
Dante Moore and two of his teammates.
Defending national champion Indiana, Georgia and Oklahoma each has two players
on the first team, as determined by media members on the AP Top 25 voting panel.
The Texas players on the team are offensive lineman Trevor Goosby, wide
receiver Cam Coleman, defensive lineman Colin Simmons and linebacker Rasheem
Biles.
Defensive lineman A'Mauri Washington and safety Koi Perich are the Oregon
players joining Moore, who edged out Mississippi's Trinidad Chambliss for
first-team honors.
Wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, the Big Ten preseason offensive player of the
year, is the only selection from Ohio State, the No. 1 team in the preseason AP
Top 25 poll.
Smith, Missouri running back Ahmad Hardy and Notre Dame cornerback Leonard
Moore are returning AP first-team All-America picks who are on the preseason
team.
Iowa's Kade Pieper was voted first-team center by a wide margin even though
this will be his first season playing the position. He moved from right guard
to replace 2025 consensus All-American Logan Jones.
The AP All-America team for this season will be released in December.
