Seven of 12 All-Pac-10 Beavers On First Team

Twelve Oregon St. Beaver footballers received All Pac-10 honors, seven on the first team.

Four members of the Beavers' offense are on the first team, including Sean Canfield, quarterback, Jacquizz Rodgers, running back, James Rodgers, wide receiver, and Greg Peat, guard.

Joining the first team from the defense are Keaton Kristick, linebacker, and Stephen Paea, tackle. And Suaesi Tuimaunei was named the first team special teams player that is not a kicker or a return specialist.

The seven were more than any other team placed on the first team.

Placekicker Justin Kahut was named the second team kicker, behind All-American Kai Forbath of UCLA.

Center Alex Linnenkohl was one of four Beavers to receive honorable mention, as were three linebackers, including middle linebacker David Pa'aluhi, and outside linebackers Dwight Roberson and Keith Pankey. Roberson and Pankey are notable for this accomplishment, because neither were full time players, instead splitting time at the position.

The offensive player of the year was Stanford running back Toby Gerhart, while UCLA tackle Brian Price was named the Pat Tillman defensive player of the year.

First year coach Chip Kelly was named the Coach of the Year, after leading the Oregon Ducks to the Pac-10 title, and winning the conference by as much as two games for the first time since 1991.

The complete list is available on the Pac-10 site.

Not too shabby!

Especially for a “rebuilding year.” :)

I love that

Sean is on the 1st team instead of Masoli. Jeremiah is great, but Sean deserved it.

Vegas Baby!

Yes he totally deserves it

But to be objective (as much as I can cough up here) that must have been a tough call though. They both are great and both are so different though, so seems like it would be so hard to compare the two to really decide on who is a “better” first teamer.

Okay back to subjective…

Apples and Oranges

Hard to argue with a 70% completion rate!!!

Totally

My point exactly.

But I’m off my “objective” bandwagon, agreed and Sean totally deserves it.

In this case,

We’ll take the oranges. They voted
for the best Quarterback, not the best
Small Truck.

(No offense to Masoli; Lance Mitchell
and I are just still bitter.)

Errrrr

Quarterback, not Quarterback.
D’oh.
