College football’s 2022 Way-Too-Early All-America team

They’re still celebrating Georgia’s first national championship in 41 years in Dawg Land, but that doesn’t mean it’s too soon to start looking ahead to the 2022 college football season.

We’ve already unveiled our 2022 Way-Too-Early top 25, and up next is our Way-Too-Early All-America team, which features some familiar names, as in Alabama quarterback Bryce Young and Alabama outside linebacker Will Anderson Jr.

In the world of the transfer portal, a few of the players have new homes after playing elsewhere last season. Of the 26 players included on offense, defense and special teams, nine will be a part of SEC teams in 2022. Alabama had four selections and Georgia and Ohio State had three apiece.

Offense

QB: Bryce Young, Alabama Crimson Tide

Young was college football’s best quarterback in 2021, and there’s no reason to think anything will change in 2022. Even without his top two receivers, Young will shred defenses with his quick release, awareness of where to go with the football and ability to see the whole field even when he’s under duress. Young set school records with 4,872 passing yards and 47 touchdown passes last season on his way to becoming Alabama’s first quarterback to win the Heisman Trophy.

RB: Bijan Robinson, Texas Longhorns

It’s no revelation that the Longhorns weren’t very good last season, but Robinson remains one of the most electric running backs in college football and still managed to rush for 1,127 yards and score 15 touchdowns in 10 games. He missed the last two contests with a dislocated elbow. Look for Robinson to have his best season yet in 2022 with his ability to make plays in both the running and passing games.

RB: TreVeyon Henderson, Ohio State Buckeyes

As a freshman, Henderson was sensational with 1,248 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns while averaging nearly 7 yards per carry. The 5-foot-10, 215-pound Henderson also caught 27 passes and had four receiving touchdowns. The Ohio State offense isn’t going to lack for dynamic playmakers…
