Utah senior defensive back Eric Weddle won two more All-America citations today when SI.com and the Walter Camp Football Foundation released their teams. SI.com tabbed Weddle as a first-team All-American, and the caption under his picture on the website reads, "Two-way stud snagged six picks, scored five offensive TDs." The WCFF, which is selected by the head coaches and sports information directors of the 119 Division 1-A football schools, and is the nation's oldest All-America team, honored Weddle as a second-team All-American.
Utah senior Tavo Tupola also earned All-America recognition by making the SI.com second team.
Weddle has now made four All-America teams, including three first-team citations (American Football Coaches Association, SI.com and rivals.com), and one second-team honor (WCFF). He was also selected as the Mountain West Conference Defensive Player of the Year for the second straight year. He and Tupola were both named to the all-conference first team.
