"Cincinnati, which qualified for the playoff with its standout defense a year ago, has two players on the list but both are on offense," the announcement stated. "Jake Renfro, a junior center, will guide the Bearcats’ front with senior offensive tackle Dylan O’Quinn on the outside."

Both maulers started all 14 games for the Bearcats last season and should hopefully rack up 28 straight starts by the time the season wraps up.

Cincinnati joined schools like Ohio State, Michigan, Wisconsin, Boise State, BYU, Miami, Notre Dame, Oregon, Pitt, Troy, USC, and Utah as programs with two players on the list.

Baylor, Clemson, and Georgia amassed three nominations each.
