With the 2017 season now in the books and only the bowl games to play, a panel of our college football experts convened to select the 2017 CBS Sports All-America team.

There are six unanimous first-team selections, including Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield, Stanford running back Bryce Love, NC State defensive lineman Bradley Chubb, Georgia linebacker Roquan Smith and specialists Tony Pollard of Memphis and Dante Pettis of Washington.

In total, 36 programs are represented across the two teams of 54 picks with two players -- San Diego State's Rashaad Penny and Penn State's Saquon Barkley -- earning selections at both running back and all-purpose. Oklahoma leads the way with four first-team selections, followed by Auburn, Iowa and Notre Dame (two each). The Tigers are the only other program with more than two total players selected as they also have a second-team pick.
