A'lique Terry and the Oregon offensive line earned semifinalist honors for the Joe Moore Award, the fourth year in a row the Ducks have made the final ten for college football's most coveted unit trophy.
They joined the following teams in the final group:
Cincinnati
Duke
Georgia Tech
Indiana
Iowa
Michigan
Oregon
Texas A&M
Utah
Vanderbilt
It's happened before that a team not named to the semifinal 10 won the Joe Moore, but it's rare, last achieved by Iowa in 2016.
A former Notre Dame and NFL offensive lineman, CBS college football analyst Aaron Taylor chairs the selection committee, which includes sideline reporter Jenny Dell, former Oregon and NFL lineman Geoff Schwartz, Cole Cubelic and Mike Golic Jr.
