NEW YORK — Alabama is No. 1 when it comes to All-Americans.

The second-ranked Crimson Tide placed four players on The Associated Press All-America team released Tuesday. Among them was center Barrett Jones, who became a two-time first-team selection.

Alabama’s Dee Milliner was also named to the first team at cornerback, along with Oregon State senior cornerback Jordan Poyer, who had seven interceptions. Oregon senior running back Kenjon Barner was a second-team selection, while his teammate, sophomore cornerback Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, was picked for the third team.

Nine Southeastern Conference players made the first team, more than any other conference. The Pac-12 was second with six players on the first team. No other conference had more than two.

The team was voted on by a panel of 16 AP college football poll voters.
