The Phil Steele All-American and All-Conference teams are slowly being revealed this offseason and you guessed it, your USC Trojans dominate the All-Pac-12 First Team mentions.
In total, nine different USC players were named to the Pac-12 First Team including Kedon Slovis and his dynamic duo at receiver: Amon-Ra St. Brown and Tyler Vaughns.

USC led the way in the conference with nine first-team selections and included offensive lineman Alijah Vera-Tucker to round out the four offensive selections.
On defense, defensive tackle Jay Tufele, defensive end Drake Jackson and safety Talanoa Hufanga each represented the Trojans while punter Ben Griffiths and long snapper Damon Johnson each were selected.

That’s high praise for the Trojans to lead the way, but also rightfully deserved.
Fight On!
