Today, the AP All-SEC Teams were announced and includes three Arkansas Razorbacks on the roster.

The Associated Press All-SEC Teams have been released. Among the NFL-caliber talent is three Arkansas Razorbacks, two on First Team and one on Second Team. This roster looks much better than the Coaches All-SEC Teams.

On First Team for Arkansas is Rawleigh Williams and Dan Skipper. Frank Ragnow is the lone Razorback on the Second Team roster. The Coaches AP-All SEC had Williams, who led the SEC in rushing, on the Second Team. Dan Skipper didn’t have any changes and came in First Team on both, however, Ragnow wasn’t on the Coaches Teams at all.

Williams is the seventh running back in Arkansas football history to earn AP All-SEC First Team honors. He also came in fifth in program history for single-season rushing yards, with McFadden holding first and second, Alex Collins at third and Razorback legend Madre Hill at fourth.

Williams holds down one of three First Team spots along with LSU’S Derrius Guice and Auburn’s Kamryn Pettway. The highly touted Leonard Fournette made the second team roster. I guess someone was listening when people were questioning how Williams could lead the SEC on the ground but be on Second Team in the Coaches list.

Frank Ragnow was named the best center in the country by Pro Football Focus but was left off the Coaches All-SEC Teams. This is why no one actually cares about Coaches Polls or picks. They are generally complete trash. Ragnow lost his father during the season but suck with the Hogs and got a lot NFL scout’s attention.

Congratulations to all the Razorbacks listed on the Ap All-SEC Teams. I am really glad the AP list could correct the horrendous rosters that the Coaches put out. My only gripe about the AP Teams is that it left out Toby Baker but whatever. Woo Pig.
