USA TODAY Sports has released its 2025 preseason All-America football teams, naming standouts from across the Bowl Subdivision ahead of this weekend’s Week 0 kickoff. The list is headlined by players from Clemson and Penn State, underscoring expectations that both programs will contend for conference titles and playoff berths. Florida’s Jake Slaughter, a 6-foot-5, 303-pound senior who graded among the nation’s top five centers last season, lands on the first team—his fifth preseason All-America citation of the summer. Arizona State wideout Jordyn Tyson, the leading returning Power-Conference receiver at 91.8 yards per game in 2024, also earns first-team honors. Iowa’s veteran center Logan Jones is placed on the second team after 38 consecutive starts anchoring the Hawkeyes’ offensive line. USA TODAY Sports likewise recognizes an Ohio State standout, rounding out a group that signals the depth of talent in the Big Ten as the league prepares for an expanded 12-team College Football Playoff. The USA TODAY roster follows similar preseason lists from Sports Illustrated and other outlets, collectively setting the narrative for a 2025 season that opens Saturday and is widely expected to be one of the most competitive of the playoff era.
