Auburn had nine players on the 2021 Preseason Coaches All-SEC Football Team, the conference announced Tuesday.
Sophomore running back Tank Bigsby earned First Team honors, after his freshman campaign last season netted him the SEC Offensive Freshman of the Year.
Bigsby also earned a Second Team nod as an all-purpose player in the slot. He joins center Nick Brahms, linebacker Zakoby McClain, safety Smoke Monday and kicker Anders Carlson on the Second Team.
Quarterback Bo Nix, lineman Brodarious Hamm, linebacker Owen Pappoe and corner Roger McCreary rounded out Auburn’s representatives with Third Team honors.
Auburn will begin its football season on Sept. 4, at home against Akron.
