Senior Auburn center Reese Dismukes has won the Rimington Trophy, awarded annually to the nation's best center.
"This is a tremendous honor and accomplishment for Reese to be named the best center in all of college football," said head coach Gus Malzahn. "He has played a large roll in the success of our offense at Auburn, leading the way for an offense that was first in the Southeastern Conference in rushing the last two years."
Dismukes was a four year starter for the Tigers and will play his last game in an Auburn uniform against Wisconsin in the Outback Bowl on Jan. 1.
"The number one thing I look for in a player is consistency, and there's no one more consistent day-in and day-out in practice and in games than Reese," said J.B. Grimes, Auburn offensive line coach. "He's taken nearly every snap in his four years and never had a bad game, let alone a bad play. I've coached a lot of really good centers in my career, and I've not had one like him.
In his four years, Dismukes played for two different head coaches and snapped the ball to six different starting quarterbacks.
