More from College Football

Here is their list:

QB: Marcus Mariota, Oregon: Mariota would have been a sure first round pick in this year’s NFL Draft. Instead, he wants to try to win a title.

RB: Todd Gurley, Georgia: Gurley still had 16 touchdowns despite missing three games last year. The Dawgs are his team now. Can they make some noise in the SEC East?

RB: Melvin Gordon, Wisconsin: If he has a massive game against LSU, the Heisman talk will begin before September does…..

WR: Rashad Greene, Florida State: With Kelvin Benjamin and Kenny Shaw gone, Greene will become FSU’s number one receiver.

WR: Antwan Goodley, Baylor: The Bears like to throw. A lot. Petty to Goodley is going to win the Bears a lot of games again this year.

T: Andrus Peat, Stanford: He is the only starter left on the line for the Cardinal, so he had better be good!

G: Laken Tomlinson, Duke: Tomlinson was a first team All-ACC selection last season.

C: Hroniss Grasu, Oregon: He is a two-time veteran of All-Pac 12 lists. Now he makes the jump to All American.

T: Cameron Erving, Florida State: He was an All-American last year as well.

DE: Vic Beasley, Clemson: He is the star of the defensive line that led the nation in tackles for loss last year.

DT: Leonard Williams, USC: He has started since he arrived at USC in 2012, and has the rookie of the year and all conference awards to prove he earned it.

DE: Shilique Calhoun, Michigan State: He will be the leader of the front seven for Sparty this year.

LB: Trey DePriest, Alabama: He will be looked upon to be the leader now that C.J.Mosley is gone.

LB: Myles Jack, UCLA: He was a punisher at RB and well as LB last year. He should be defense-only this year.

CB: Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, Oregon: He is another first round pick that return to Duck U for a championship run.
