List of Oregon Ducks football All-Americans
The Oregon Ducks college football team competes as part of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS), and represents the University of Oregon in the North Division of the Pac-12 Conference (Pac-12). All-America selections are individual player recognitions made after each season when numerous publications release lists of their ideal team. The NCAA recognizes five All-America lists: the Associated Press (AP), American Football Coaches Association (AFCA), the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA), Sporting News (SN), and the Walter Camp Football Foundation (WCFF).[1] In order for an honoree to earn a "consensus" selection, he must be selected as first team in three of the five lists recognized by the NCAA, and "unanimous" selections must be selected as first team in all five lists.[1]
Since the establishment of the team in 1894, Oregon has had 29 players honored a total of 34 times as First Team All-America for their performance on the field of play.[2] Included in these selections are 8 consensus selections, 2 of which were unanimous selections earned by LaMichael James in the 2010 season and Marcus Mariota in the 2014 season in which he won the Heisman Trophy.
