Alabama quarterback Mac Jones and wide receiver DeVonta Smith were the easiest picks for the USA TODAY Sports 2020 All-America teams, which include 14 players from the four teams selected for this year’s College Football Playoff.

No team had more selections than Alabama, which had seven players across the two teams after completing one of the program’s most dominant regular seasons under coach Nick Saban.

Settling on the second-team quarterback meant picking between Florida senior Kyle Trask and Clemson junior Trevor Lawrence. Playing two additional games and leading Lawrence in yards, touchdowns, completion percentage and efficiency rating gave Trask the edge.

The All-America honors included 13 players from the Group of Five. Seven were on the first team, including Buffalo running back Jaret Patterson and Tulsa linebacker Zaven Collins.
