2025 College Football All-American Predictions

Ross Gaskin Contributing:

Below is my list for who I believe will be the 1st and 2nd team All-Americans at every offensive position for the 2025 college football season. The criteria for these picks are their stats from last season and the outlook for them and their team for this season. There may be some players that might come as a surprise, but keep in mind that this is purely my opinion. 

QB: 1st Team- Cade Klubnik | 2nd Team- Garrett Nussmeier 

Klubnik: Cade Klubnik is arguably the best QB in college football heading into this season, and he is geared up to have a better season than last. In 2024, Klubnik threw for 3,636 yards and 36 TDs while also rushing for 463 yards and 7 more TDs. He will be throwing to a trio of great young WRs who all had solid stats last season with those being Bryant Wesco Jr, Antonio Williams, and T.J. Moore. Except huge numbers from Klubnik this season.

Nussmeier: Garrett Nussmeier was one of the best pure pocket passers last season despite having a few up and down games. Nussmeier threw for 4,052 yards and 29 TDs, but he also threw 12 INTs. Nussmeier will be throwing to some studs at WR including Barion Brown and Nic Anderson. If Garrett Nussmeier can keep the turnovers to a minimum and keep up his consistency, he will have a phenomenal 2025 season. 

RB: 1st Team- Jeremiyah Love and Nicholas Singleton | 2nd Team- Makhi Hughes and Isaac Brown

Love: To most people. Jeremiyah Love was around the 3rd best RB in college football last season, but this year he will be in the spotlight as he will be the go to guy on Notre Dame. Last season, Love rushed for 1,125 yards and 17 TDs on 6.9 yards per carry. This dude is special and will be a high pick in next year's draft.

Singleton: Nicholas Singleton is ½ of a two headed monster, but he has no problems with sharing reps because he steals the show when the ball is in his hands. Last season, Singleton rushed for 1,099 yards and 12 TDs on 6.4 yards per carry. Expect for this Penn State RB to be a PROBLEM for every single defense he faces this season. 

Hughes: Makhi Hughes was one of the most exciting RBs in the G5 last season, but now he is an Oregon Duck and he will have to up his game to stand out as a top tier RB. Last season, Hughes rushed for 1,401 yards and 15 TDs on 5.3 yards per carry. Makhi Hughes will have the O-Line of his dreams as the Ducks have one of the best units in college football. Expect for Hughes to break out as one of the best RBs in the nation this year. 

Brown: Isaac Brown was a standout freshman last season, but this year he is geared up to establish himself as a premiere RB in college football. Last season, Brown rushed for 1,173 yards and 11 TDs on an incredible 7.1 yards per carry. Isaac Brown may still be young, but he is going to continue to get better and better. Expect to hear this kid's name for a very long time. 

WR: 1st Team- Jeremiah Smith and Ryan Williams | 2nd Team- Antonio Williams and Jordyn Tyson

Smith: Smith was easily the best WR in the nation last season, and he will most likely be the best this season as well. Last season, Smith racked up 1,315 yards and 15 TDs. Jeremiah Smith will have a new QB throwing to him, but he is such an amazing athlete that I don’t see that affecting his production too much. Smith is undeniably the most exciting player to watch in college football right now. 

R. Williams: Ryan Williams was right there with Jeremiah Smith as one of the best WRs last season as the two of them were a pair of freshman phenoms that took the world by storm. Last season, Williams racked up 865 receiving yards and 8 TDs. This year, Williams will have a great pocket passer at QB, Ty Simpson, who has the accuracy and arm to get Williams the ball at any spot on the field. Expect BIG numbers from this young, star WR in 2025. 

A. Williams: Antonio Williams was a fantastic WR and the #1 target for one of the best QBs, Cade Klubnik, last season, and this year looks like it could be even better. In 2024, Williams had 904 receiving yards and 11 TDs as he helped lead Clemson to the playoffs. Klubnik is considered one of the best QBs in college football, so it is a no-brainer that Antonio Williams, who is a great athlete in his own right, should be considered an All-American. 

Tyson: Jordyn Tyson is coming off a great 2024 campaign, and now that Arizona State’s star RB Cam Skattebo is gone, the offense will flow almost exclusively through Tyson. Last year, Jordan Tyson was able to rack up 1,101 receiving yards and 10 TDs. This year looks like it could be great for Tyson as the offense will flow through him, and he will also have a fantastic QB throwing to him in Sam Leavitt. Expect Jordan Tyson to emerge as one of the premiere WRs in all of college football. 

RT: 1st Team- Spencer Fano | 2nd Team- Francis Mauigoa

Fano: Spencer Fano has been a staple of the Utes O-line going on 3 seasons now, and I feel that his dominance will continue in 2025. Last season, Fano only allowed 1 sack, 2 QB hits, and 11 QB pressures on 424 pass blocking snaps while also being extremely dominant with his run blocking. Expect Fano to have an even better season in 2025, and for him to be a high pick in the NFL Draft. 

Mauigoa: Francis Mauigoa has also been a huge part of Miami’s O-line going on 3 seasons now, and his reign of dominance and being the best OT in the ACC has no end in sight. Last season, Mauigoa only allowed 1 sack, 1 QB hit, and 17 QB pressures on 576 pass blocking snaps, and was the only OT in the FBS to allow 2 or fewer sacks/hits on 500+ pass blocking snaps. Francis Mauigoa will be a top OT picked in the NFL Draft. 

RG: 1st Team- Ar’maj Reed-Adams | 2nd Team- Jaeden Roberts

Reed-Adams: Ar’maj Reed-Adams is probably the easiest pick for 1st Team All-American because he is head and shoulders the best RG in all of college football. Last season, Reed-Adams allowed only 1 sack, 1 QB hit, and 8 QB pressures on 359 pass blocking snaps, and was the spearhead of Texas A&M’s rushing attack which was one of the best in the nation. Ar’maj Reed-Adams is far and away the best guard in college football. 

Roberts: Jaeden Roberts is one part of Alabama’s big three on their O-line, and he is an absolute stud. Last season, Roberts allowed only 1 sack, 0 QB hits, and 10 QB pressures on 259 pass blocking snaps. Jaeden Roberts was also a huge part of Alabama's dynamic run game. Jaeden Roberts has made huge strides in his game, and I expect this year to be his best one yet. 

C: 1st Team- Jake Slaughter | 2nd Team- Iapani Laloulu

Slaughter: Jake Slaughter is the leader on that Florida O-line, and is the best center/interior lineman in college football. Last season, Jake Slaughter only allowed 1 sack, 0 QB hits, and 8 QB pressures on 402 pass blocking snaps, and was a beast on run blocking plays while facing some of the best DTs in college football. Expect Jake Slaughter to continue to dominate and be a high pick in the NFL Draft. 

Laloulu: Iapani Laloulu had a great season in 2024 as the center for Oregon, and this year, he is considered as one of the top centers in all of college football. Last season, Laloulu only allowed 0 sacks, 4 QB hits, and 6 QB pressures on 528 pass blocking snaps while also being one of the best run blocking centers as well. Iapani Laloulu will be, once again, one of the best centers in college football in 2025. 

LG: 1st Team- Tomas Rimac | 2nd Team- Cayden Green

Rimac: Tomas Rimac was a monster on the O-Line for the Virginia Tech Hokies last season, but this year could be his best yet if he can somehow outperform himself. Last season, Rimac allowed a total of 0 sacks, 1 QB hit, and 8 QB hurries on 479 pass blocking snaps. Not only is he a great pass blocker, but he is also a menace when it comes to run blocking. Expect Rimac to emerge as one of the best in the country when the 2025 season gets going.

Green: If Rimac is 1A, then Green is 1B because he is almost just as dominant and is a beast down there in the trenches. Last season, Cayden Green only allowed 1 sack, 1 QB hit, and 9 QB hurries on 418 pass blocking snaps while also being the spearhead of an offense that rushed for over 4 yards per carry. Cayden will be the leader of Missouri’s O-Line this season, and will be a dominant force in the SEC and, in the near future, the NFL as well. 

LT: 1st Team- Kadyn Proctor| 2nd Team- Isaiah World

Proctor: Kadyn Proctor has been a stud on Alabama’s O-Line since his true freshman year and has continuously improved game after game. Last season, Proctor only allowed 3 sacks, 3 QB hits, and 9 QB hurries while facing some of the best edge rushers in all of college football. Proctor is huge, shockingly athletic, and STRONG with all of the potential in the world. If Kadyn Proctor continues to improve, do not be surprised if he is a top 10 pick in the NFL Draft. 


World: Isaiah World was already considered a great LT last season with Nevada, but now he is on the Oregon Ducks and has the opportunity to show the entire college football scene that he is a top tier OT. Last season, World only allowed 1 sack, 2 QB hits, and 12 QB hurries on 457 pass blocking snaps. Isaiah World will have a lot of pressure on him this year, moving up into P4 competition, but he has a great group around him with a superstar RB to block for, so expect big thing from this massive LT.
