OXFORD, Miss. — Another day, another preseason honor for Ole Miss running back Quinshon Judkins. On Wednesday, the talented Judkins was named Preseason First Team All-American by CBS Sports.

Last week Judkins was named to the Walter Camp Award Watch List, after already having been named to the Maxwell Award and Doak Walker Award watch lists. 

He has also earned Preseason All-America and first-team Preseason All-SEC honors by the SEC media, Walter Camp, Lindy’s, Athlon and Phil Steele.

Last season, Judkins set the Ole Miss single-season records in both rushing yards (1,567) and rushing touchdowns (16), and ended the year ranked in the national top-10 in rushing yards (No. 7), rushing touchdowns (No. 10) and total touchdowns with 17 (No. 10).

Judkins put together one of the greatest seasons ever by an SEC freshman running back in 2022. His 1,567 yards ranks as the second-most ever by a freshman in SEC history, trailing only Georgia’s Herschel Walker, who ran for 1,616 yards in 1980. 


Judkins’ historic season also ended him ranked No. 11 all-time among Power-5 freshmen and was the most since 2017.

Judkins talked recently at Ole Miss media day about the upcoming season. 

Hotty Toddy and congrats to Quinshon!
