2021 AP All-America team: Alabama’s Bryce Young, Michigan’s Aidan Hutchinson headline first-team selections

The Associated Press revealed its postseason All-America team on Monday, and it includes several of the game’s biggest stars. Alabama quarterback Bryce Young, who won the Heisman Trophy on Saturday, received the honor of being named first-team quarterback. Fellow Heisman Trophy finalist Aidan Hutchinson, the star defensive end for the College Football Playoff-bound Michigan Wolverines, was pegged as a first-teamer at the defensive line spot. 

Alabama placed three players on the first team, most in the nation. Ohio State placed a nation’s-best seven players across the three teams, including third-team quarterback and Heisman Trophy finalist C.J. Stroud. The SEC had a nation’s-best nine players on the first team, with the Big Ten coming in behind with five.
