Baylor wide receiver Terrance Williams and South Carolina defensive lineman Jadeveon Clowney headline the 2012 AFCA FBS Coaches’ All-America Team announced today by the American Football Coaches Association.

The AFCA has selected an All-America team since 1945 and currently selects teams in all five of its divisions. What makes these teams so special is that they are the only ones chosen exclusively by the men who know the players the best — the coaches themselves.

yah you would have expected the QB to be Manziel or Klein.

Boyd is a bit of a stretch.

Though Eric Reid was solid this year (but not spectacular unfortunately), I see he is getting the full Barrett Jones treatment. Congrats to him.

Reid was a leader and clearly a contributor this year but this season Reid:bad angles :: Jones:holding

About 5 yards behind Moncrief, faking a cramp.

Is it though? Look at his numbers, they're deserving.

Also, I they misspelled the schools on the first team o line- they're supposed to spell Alabama. Someone needs to inform the writer of his mistake.

So good he was reserved as the only member on the AFCA All-World team. The team is subsequently going to be retired with Banks as the sole member.

I think Banks and Dave Amerson are going to be on a different kind of list this year.

I really didn't think Reid should have been on the list. Montgomery should have been on it though.

I would think several guys would get that pick before Boyd.

Klein
Landry Jones
Braxton Miller
Manziel
Bridgewater
Mariota
Jordan Lynch

I guess that's what happens when you finally have to defend decent wide receivers.

Wow, I am a huge fan and I know this isn't deserved. As for Tajh being an all american, I can't even begin to say how ridiculous that selection is. This video speaks for itself. LINK
