The compilation of the All-America roster was supervised by a panel of analysts working in large part with the historical records contained in the files of the Dr. Baker Football Information Service. The roster consists of only those players who were first-team selections on one or more of the All-America teams that were selected for the national audience and received nationwide circulation. Not included are the thousands of players who received mention on All-America second or third teams, nor the numerous others who were selected by newspapers or agencies with circulations that were not primarily national and with viewpoints, therefore, that were not normally nationwide in scope.

Last week the Cardinals improved to 3-0 with a 27-6 win over vs. the Philadelphia Eagles in front of a sold out crowd—the 67th straight—at University of Phoenix Stadium. It marks the Cardinals best start since 1974 and extended the team’s home winning streak to seven games. The 21-point margin of MIAMI DOLPHINS (1-2) victory against Philadelphia snapped a streak of 11 straight University of Phoenix Stadium wins for the Cards that were decided by seven points or fewer. Arizona’s defense put on a dominant performance yet again, holding the Eagles without a TD for the first time since their 2009 regular season finale.
