Jul 1 | Football
DALLAS (SMU) – SMU players Isaiah Nwokobia and Collin Rogers highlighted the Mustangs named to the Athlon Preseason All-America/All-ACC teams for the upcoming year on Tuesday. Â
Â
The duo earned preseason All-America honors as part of Athlon Sports' 2025 Preseason ACC All-Conference and All-America teams in a release that included 14 Mustangs that were named to one of the preseason ACC All-Conference teams
Â
Nwokobia was selected to the All-America Third Team and Rogers to the fourth team. Nwokobia continues to add to his preseason accolades, being named to his third preseason All-America team by various publications.
Â
Rogers set the program's all-time scoring record last year for SMU, breaking the record held by Doak Walker, Eric Dickerson, and Xavier Jones.
Â
Also joining Nwokobia and Rogers on the first team were PJ Williams on offense and Ahmaad Moses on defense.
Â
The second team consisted of Jordan Hudson, RJ Maryland and Logan Parr, all of whom were selected to the second team of the Phil Steele publication back in June.
Â
Kevin Jennings earned a spot on the third team after his breakout year in 2024 on offense and Cameron Robertson on defense.
Â
A trio of defenders earned fourth-team honors in Deuce Harmon, Alexander Kilgore and Isaiah Smith, while Addison Nichols was picked to the offensive side. Chris Johnson Jr. was selected to the fourth team as a specialist.
Â
An important note on the All-America teams: These selections are based on how players will perform in 2025. Career statistics and previous awards matter in player evaluation, but choosing players for the 2025 All-America team and all-conference teams is largely based on predicting and projecting the upcoming year. Â
