Texas A&M fans clicked on the link today as USA Today became the first major media outlet to release its All-American teams.

Going in, most likely wondered if Aggie defensive end Myles Garrett was given a place as a first-teamer.

The 6-foot-5, 260-pound sophomore led the SEC in sacks with 11.5, tackles for loss with 18.5 and forced fumbles with five. The five forced fumbles are second in the nation. He also ended the regular season with 57 tackles, an interception and a blocked punt.

Somehow, though, the Aggie defender was left off not just the first team, but the second team as well.

The defensive linemen to make the first team - Joey Bosa, Sheldon Day, DeForest Buckner and Shaq Lawson - all had solid seasons. However, all four trailed Garrett in sacks and only Lawson had more tackles for loss.

Penn State defensive end Carl Nassib who, like Garrett, is a Lombardi Award finalist, was only placed on the second team despite the former walkon leading the nation in both sacks and forced fumbles and finishing second to Lawson in tackles for loss.
