The Big 12 Conference announced their Preseason All-Big 12 football team Wednesday morning as voted on by the media, and the University of Oklahoma led the league with nine selections.

QB Baker Mayfield
RB Samaje Perine
TE Mark Andrews
OL Orlando Brown
DL Charles Walker
LB Jordan Evans
DB Steven ParkerDB Jordan Thomas
P Austin Seibert

Somewhat surprisingly Kansas State with five had the second most selections behind the Sooners.

Additionally, Mayfield was selected as the preseason Offensive Player of the Year among some pretty stiff competition. Texas LB Malik Jefferson and TCU QB Kenny Hill were named preseason defensive player of the year and newcomer of the year, respectively.

The Big 12 media preseason poll will be announced on Thursday.
