Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty was a unanimous selection and Colorado two-way star Travis Hunter occupies two first-team positions on The Associated Press midseason All-America team released Thursday.
Miami's Cam Ward was the runaway winner for top quarterback, the SEC held down four of the five spots on the offensive line and 10 of the AP preseason All-America first-team picks were on the midseason first-team as well.
Nine players from the Southeastern Conference and six from the Big Ten are on the first team, as determined by a panel of media members who vote each week in the AP Top 25 college football poll.
Jeanty has run for more than 200 yards in three of his six games and is averaging a nation-leading 208 per game and 9.9 per carry. His 17 rushing touchdowns are most in the country.
Only 25 teams have more rushing yards this season than Jeanty's 1,248, the highest six-game total by a player since Garrett Wolfe had 1,343 for Northern Illinois in 2006, according to Sportradar.
