South Leads On All-America Team
The 1935 All-America selection highlights a strong southern and southwestern presence with four first team picks and twelve on the full squad. Alabama's Riley Smith and SMU's Bobby Wilson anchor the backfield beside Chicago’s Jay Berwanger and Stanford's Bobby Grayson, while LSU’s Gaynell Tinsley and Army’s Bill Shuler head the ends. Princeton and Minnesota supply three men each on the squad, with notable tackles including Dick Smith of Minnesota and Ed Widseth of Minnesota, and guards John Weller of Princeton and Paul Tangora of Northwestern. The AP notes a regional tilt yet maintains a national view with selections from 24 colleges.
