Midseason Pacific Takes All-Pac-12 Team: Oregon leads the way with 10 selections

First Team

Offense

QB Justin Herbert Sr. Oregon - Herbert has been very good in his senior season and is leading the conference’s top-ranked team and favorite. That’s enough to get the nod here.

RB Zack Moss Sr. Utah - He’s battled injuries and still produced as one of the best backs in the conference. He might be the Pac-12’s best offensive player at any position.

RB Eno Benjamin Jr. Arizona State - Living up to his preseason billing, especially in regards to running for touchdowns and leading ASU to a very good first half of the season.

WR Isaiah Hodgins Jr. Oregon State - One of the Pac-12’s biggest surprises, he’s been one of the nation’s most-productive receivers so far.

WR Easop Winston Sr. Washington State - Another hidden gem, he’s absolutely exploded in WSU’s air raid this season, racking up catches, yards, and touchdowns.

TE Jacob Breeland Sr. Oregon - his injury is tragic as he put up such good numbers he might end up being first-team All-Pac-12 at the end of the season.

OL Penei Sewell So. Oregon - The young linemen has been grading out exceptionally well, leading the Oregon offensive line.

OL Trey Adams Sr. Washington - He looks to finally be 100 percent and is showing why he has long been projected as a first round pick.

OL Nick Harris Sr. Washington - The Pac-12’s best center thus far. He’s battled injuries and been a rock in the middle.

OL Darrin Paulo Sr. Utah - Like so many Ute linemen before him, he’s emerging as one of the Pac-12’s best despite almost no preseason hype.

OL Abe Lucas So. Washington State - Still probably the Pac-12’s best pass blocker.

Defense

DL Leki Fotu Sr. Utah - He’s a powerful force in the middle, holding down the center of Utah’s defense all season.

DL Jay Tufele So. USC - Probably the most-talented defensive player in the conference. He already looks like an NFL DT.

DL Bradlee Anae Sr. Utah - Still a major contender for Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year as a power off the edge and in run defense.

DL Jordon Scott Jr. Oregon - A big part of why Oregon’s run defense has been so stingy all season.

LB Evan Weaver Sr. Cal - No question the Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year barring an injury.

LB Colin Schooler Jr. Arizona - Just having another year as one of the nation’s best linebackers and an electric defensive playmaker.

LB Casey Toohill Sr. Stanford - He has quietly looked like a throwback Stanford linebacker who destroys offenses in the backfield all season, particularly giving Oregon and Washington fits.

DB Demmodore Lenoir Jr. Oregon - The strongest of an exceptionally-strong Oregon secondary. He’s emerged as the conference’s best DB for now and there are a lot of really good ones in the Pac-12 this year.

DB Thomas Graham Jr. Oregon - Right there with his teammate Lenoir as one of the Pac-12’s best DBs in a strong year for the position.

DB Jevon Holland So. Oregon - He’s an interception machine and makes it so hard to throw against the back of Oregon’s defense right now.

DB Camryn Bynum Jr. Cal - The Bears secondary has been overshadowed by Oregon, but Bynum and his gang have been dominant in their own right.

Special Teams

K Peyton Henry So. Washington - He’s been lights out since missing that game-winning kick against Oregon last year. He has yet to miss a field goal this season.

P Michael Turk So. Arizona State - Has the highest average for punt yardage thus far this season.

R Velus Jones Jr. USC - A dangerous kick returner with an impressive average who has already taken a kick back for a score.
