Tuesday afternoon the Pac-12 released the results of its media voting for the preseason all-conference teams ahead of this week’s media day in Los Angeles. Many of the top newcomers to the league are represented on the list of players while 11 of the 12 teams in the conference each have multiple players on the first and second teams.
UCLA tied Arizona, Arizona State and Cal for fifth most selections with three players on the list. Running back Zach Charbonnet is the lone member of the first team for UCLA while wide receiver Jake Bobo and linebacker Darius Muasau have been tabbed as second-team selections.
Bobo and Muasau are both newcomers to the conference after joining the Bruins this offseason after beginning their careers at Duke and Hawaii, respectively.
UCLA also earned multiple honorable mention nods highlighted by quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson. Offensive lineman Jon Gaines II and safety Stephan Blaylock also earned honorable mention recognition.
Gaines and Blaylock will represent the team this Friday at Pac-12 Media Day.
USC and defending Pac-12 champion Utah both finished atop the list with six first-team selections. The Trojans had 10 players selected to either the first or second team while Utah had nine. Oregon finished third with eight while Oregon State had seven players selected to the first or second team.
