Sutton Smith snubbed
NIU's Sutton Smith was named to the first team of ESPN's All-American squad. This morning, ESPN released its top 50 college football players, and Smith wasn't on the list. Why not both? Disappointing.

Without opening the link my guess of the 50 there are maybe 4 players from the G5 if he is not on the list.

Yea considering there were 4 DEs on the list, that is totally inconsistent. He would have to have been 3rd team AA at best.

Good point - so I counted. There are 3 G5 players.

ESPN probably just copied everyone else's list. They didn't know who Sutton was.

RE: Sutton Smith snubbed
In this year's NFL Mock drafts 7 DL / Edge rushers are projected within the top 15 picks.
This is the draft of the Defensive line talent and there is stiff competition for All American honors.
We all know that Sutton is not a projected 1st rounder, nor would we expect him to be.
That he was honored as consensus All American last year and just one vote away this year is a credit to the fairness of the All American voting process.
I must admit as a fan I would have loved to have a two time consensus All American from NIU but nonetheless Sutton remains the most highly decorated football player in NIU's history!

Does he not still have a chance at Consensus All American. Unless I missed it Sporting News hasn't reported their All-Americans yet.
