So you took the 2 RB with the most yardage in Division I and made them second team. A case can be made for Ingram but not Williams. It should either be Lewis or Mathews and I prefer Lewis.

Even though I live in Iowa, I am actually a Huskers fan.  However, I have to make a case for two other Hawkeyes that did not make either mid-season team........Adrian Clayborn and Tony Moeaki.  I know Moeaki has been injured a good part of the season, but when he's healthy nobody can stop him!  Clayborn has been a force on a defensive line that going into the season was thought by m ...(more)

This guy IS the next Randy Moss.  This is obviously purely based on stats and not true talent.  For an bad offense that can't seem to muster much, AJ Green IS THE GA OFFENSE!  I know there is alot of good players but come on.....6-5 210, 4.5, and a straight baller! You missed on this one

AJ Green -         41 rec. 682 yds. 6 TD's
Jordan Shipley - 51 rec. 605 yds. 3 TD's

looks like AJ wins that battle.  AJ produces more with less.  I believe they say, "oh, shipley's a good return man."..... i guess thats what gets him on the list.

doesnt suprise me.  they mention the usual suspect and everyone has heard of them.  Im not going to harp on why AJ Green is not on there cause everyone knows he should.  lets even say Eric Decker.  dudes a beast.  or even Brandon Boykin.  he has 2 KR over 100yd for touchdowns.  dont be afraid to leave off someone that hasnt produced "yet" this season.  its l ...(more)

Lewis is clearly the best RB in college football so far this year.  I can think of no reason you would prefer either of your first-team guys.

1st team QB: Todd Reesing
1st team LB: Rolando Mcclain, Eric Norwood, Brandon Spikes.

But seriously how sick would that be to see that LB corps.  Those 3 guys in the middle of the defense, can you say unpenetrable??? Imagine if a team picked up all three of those guys on one individual team...

And NO WAY in HECK is Case Keenum better than Todd Reesing, seriously tho

i guess it doesnt mean anything when you lead the nation in tackles. there is no reason why greg jones shouldnt be on the 1st team LB's. with that logic keenum shouldnt be the #1 QB since hes leading in passing yards and passing TD's. crazyness

How is O 'Brien Schofield not on the first team defensive line? He is statistically better than all four of these picks and has been excellent all year especially when you see how easily he records tackles for a loss.

O'Brien Schofield, Wisconsin:  38 tackles (25 solo), 16.5 TFL, 6.5 sacks, 1 PBU, 5 QBH, 2 FF, ...(more)

most dominating half of receiving in college football history (I of course have no evidence to back that up).

AJ Green deserves to be on first team, but not to have him on 2nd team is crazy

Where is Eric Decker from the University of Minnesota?  47 receptions, 700 + yards and 5 touchdowns on a team that typically likes to run the ball.  He needs to be shown some love.

Green is the best WR in the country - UGA would be 1-6 w/o him.
