Billy Cannon, a two-time unanimous All-American halfback for LSU

A College Football All-America Team is selected annually by various organizations to recognize each season's most outstanding players at each position. Certain organizations are recognized by the NCAA as "official" selectors, whose teams are used to determine consensus and unanimous All-Americans. The LSU Tigers football team has had 31 players recognized as consensus All-Americans, with nine of those being unanimous selections.[1] Gaynell Tinsley was LSU's first consensus (1935) and unanimous (1936) All-American. Four LSU players have been recognized as consensus All-Americans twice: Tinsley, Billy Cannon, Tommy Casanova, and Charles Alexander. Cannon is the only LSU player to be unanimously selected twice, doing so in 1958 and 1959. Casanova is widely considered LSU's only three-time All-American; he was named a first-team All-American by at least one selector in 1969, 1970, and 1971.[2]
