Cameron Artis-Payne, Reese Dismukes named first team All-SEC by Associated Press

AUBURN -- Reese Dismukes and Cameron Artis-Payne were named First Team All-SEC by the Associated Press on Monday.

It was the second straight year Dismukes, a four-year starter and two-year captain at center, was selected and a first for Artis-Payne, the SEC's leading rusher.

Dismukes is a finalist for the Rimington Trophy and Outland Trophy.

Wide receiver Sammie Coates and cornerback Jonathan Jones were named Second Team All-SEC and defensive tackle Gabe Wright and kicker Daniel Carlson received Honorable Mention.

Artis-Payne, Dismukes and Wright have all accepted invited to this year's Senior Bowl.

Auburn had four First Team All-SEC selections last season (Dismukes, Dee Ford, Tre Mason and Greg Robinson).
