Mizzou’s Schrader and K-State’s Beebe headline area AP All-Americans
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Both Kansas State and Missouri are represented on the newly released Associated Press All-America Teams.
The headliners are Tigers running back Cody Schrader and Wildcats offensive lineman Cooper Beebe, both of whom earned AP First-Team All-America selections.
Beebe is a 2022 AP Second-Team All-American, along with plenty of other accolades from last season that included First-Team All-America selections from four different publications.
Mizzou selected for NY6 Cotton Bowl against Ohio State
This year the NFL-bound guard has been a First-Teamer across the board, and so has Schrader.
The Mizzou ball-carrier broke out this season earning him several awards and nominations. He even finished eighth in Heisman Trophy voting, an award that has been primarily dominated by the quarterback position for the last two decades.
Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden and defensive back Kris Abrams-Draine made the second team. Tigers offensive tackle Javon Foster and K-State tight end Ben Sinnott are AP third-team All-Americans.
