[QUOTE="TopFrog, post: 2874199, member: 120"] [B][SIZE=6]GoFrogs: Three Players Receive Preseason Honors from DCTF[/SIZE][/B] TCU linebacker Garret Wallow and safeties Trevon Moehrig and Ar'Darius Washington were named to the Dave Campbell's Texas Football First-Team All-Texas College Defense with Moehrig tabbed the State's Best Defensive Back. The Horned Frogs had three of the 11 players on the first-team defense which covers the 12 FBS programs in the state. Wallow was first-team All-Big 12 and honorable-mention Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year last season. He was also an honorable-mention All-American by Phil Steele. A senior from New Orleans, Wallow led TCU and the Big 12 with 125 tackles, including 18 for loss with 3.5 sacks. The 125 stops ranked fourth in a season under Head Coach Gary Patterson. Wallow tied for ninth nationally in both tackles (10.4) and TFLs (1.5) per game. Moehrig and Washington are rated by Pro Football Focus as the nation's top two safeties. PFF graded Moehrig with the third-most valuable season in its college era. The junior from Spring Branch, Texas, allowed just two of 17 contested targets to be caught and took part in a team-best seven takeaways. A first-team All-Big 12 selection last season, Moehrig was second on TCU with 62 tackles, four interceptions and 11 pass breakups while tying for the team lead with two forced fumbles. He tied teammate and Minnesota Vikings' first-round draft pick Jeff Gladney for second in the Big 12 and 14th nationally in passes defended at 1.25 per game. Washington was an FWAA Freshman All-American and the Big 12 Defensive Freshman of the Year. He ranked second nationally among freshmen last season with five interceptions, the most by a rookie in Patterson's 19 seasons as TCU's head coach. The five picks were also the most by a Horned Frog since Chris Hackett had seven in 2014. A Shreveport, La., native, Washington placed third on TCU with 46 tackles. He had a season-high 14 stops, including one for loss, at Oklahoma. [/QUOTE]
