Both McCaffrey and offensive lineman Joshua Garnett were named to the first-team offense for Stanford. The Cardinal went 11-2 this season and will play in the Rose Bowl for the third time in four years.

Oregon defensive lineman DeForest Buckner, who was named as the Pac-12's defensive player of the year, was named to first-team all defense.

Tom Hacket, Utah's superb punter, was named to the first-team as well. Hackett has been named to the Pac-12's first-team in three consecutive years.

Washington State offensive lineman Joe Dahl and Stanford linebacker Blake Martinez were both named to USA Today's second-team All-American.
