College football is getting closer with another release of an All-American list, but this is not just another list. This latest All-American list is created by no other than Phil Steele. Steele goes a bit deeper by creating a four-team list, and this particular list includes a tri of Mountain West players.

Way too early MWC rankings

 Yet another preseason ranking list.

The three Mountain West players include Utah State center Tyler Larsen, Boise State defensive end Demarcus Lawrence and Fresno State wide receiver Davante Adams. All three of those players landed on Steele's fourth team.
