Southern California quarterback Caleb Williams is the AP college football player of the year, becoming the school’s first winner of the award since 2005.
player of the year, becoming the school’s first winner of the award since 2005 with his stellar debut season for the Trojans.
Stroud and Hooker got two first-place votes apiece, while one first-place vote each went to Bennett, Anderson and star running backs Bijan Robinson of Texas and Blake Corum of Michigan. Alabama quarterback Bryce Young, who won the AP award last season, finished 11th this year. The clear favorite for the AP honor was Williams, the elusive passer and runner with an electrifying arm and strong leadership skills. The sophomore followed Lincoln Riley from Oklahoma to the West Coast last winter, and the duo immediately returned USC to national prominence with a seven-win improvement over last season’s record.
Perhaps most impressive, Williams has played a critical role in bringing cohesion, teamwork and 11 victories to a program returning from a four-win season with a new coaching staff and more than two dozen veteran player additions through the transfer portal.
