Texas dominates the AP preseason All-America team with four players, while the SEC leads with 14 total selections. The Big Ten follows closely with eight first-teamers, headlined by Oregon’s Dante Moore and his two teammates. Defending champs Indiana, Georgia, and Oklahoma each land two players. Standouts like Ohio State’s Jeremiah Smith — named Big Ten preseason offensive player of the year — and returning talents such as Missouri’s Ahmad Hardy and Notre Dame’s Leonard Moore make the cut. Iowa’s Kade Pieper, making his debut at center after replacing a consensus All-American, earns a first-team nod — a surprise move that’ll be worth watching. Remember: this is just a preseason snapshot — the real All-America team won’t be decided until December, when the season’s surprises begin to unfold.
