Alabama Has Three Second-Team Selections for Walter Camp All-Americans
It's postseason awards week in college football and the No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide is all over this year's accolades.
The Walter Camp Football Foundation named its first and second All-American Teams for college football this season on Friday and three Alabama players earned places on the second team.
JC Latham, Dallas Turner and Koolaid McKinstry all were named Walter Camp second team All-Americans.
Latham, the Tide's starting right tackle all season long, recorded 41 knockdown blocks on 813 snaps and allowed just two sacks on the season on an offensive unit that continually improved throughout the season.
Turner, Alabama's premiere edge rusher tallied 50 tackles with nine sacks along with 13 quarterback hurries and was a part of several turnovers for the Tide this season as he was a devastating pass rusher.
McKinstry, the Tide's leading corner, was only targeted 37 times over the course of the season. He allowed receivers 183 yards on the year and broke up 10 passes while also being in on 27 tackles.
The Walter Camp selections are one of five services the NCAA used to determine consensus and unanimous All-American status. The Associated Press, Football Writers Association of America, the coaches association and The Sporting News selections will all be announced next week.
