19. Leonard Williams DE USC - Williams was a man among boys in his three-year Trojan career.

He finished his career just a hair under 5,000 all-purpose yards and scored 52 touchdowns.
12. Alex Mack C Cal - Not a household name playing the gloryless position of center, but Mack is an all-time great. A three-time first-team all-conference selection, two-time Morris Trophy winner and Draddy Trophy winner, he is one of the best to ever play center in the Pac-12.
11. Taylor Mays S USC - The definition of a career award, Mays never had a banner year, but was a three-time first-team All-American and a second-team member the off year and was all-conference his entire career.
