Preseason All-American Teams

The Four6Three gives you a sneak peak of what the college football insiders are saying for this coming year.  Our latest sneak peak is for Sporting News and Blue Ribbon Yearbook.  

Blue Ribbon College Football Yearbook announced its preseason top-25 rankings this week, which features Boise State as the No. 3 overall team heading into the fall. The only teams earning higher rankings than the Broncos were Ohio State (No. 1) and Alabama (No. 2). Blue Ribbon also honored Boise State junior quarterback Kellen Moore by selecting him as one of five players to be featured on the publication cover. Moore was joined by Mark Ingram (Alabama, RB), Ryan Mallett (Arkansas, QB), Case Keenum (Houston, QB) and Terrelle Pryor (Ohio State, QB).

Ryan Mallett was also voted as Blue Ribbon College Football Offensive Player of the year.  

Sporting News released their preseason All-Americans as well.  They are listed below.
