Another day, another heap of accolades for the 2015 Ohio State football team, a team that hasn't yet played a meaningful snap of football.

Sporting News released its preseason All-American teams and — you might want to be sitting down for this — Ohio State leads the way with four first-team nods and six overall selections.

PLAYER POSITION TEAM
JOEY BOSA DE 1ST
TAYLOR DECKER LT 1ST
EZEKIEL ELLIOTT RB 1ST
DARRON LEE LB 1ST
CARDALE JONES QB 2ND
ADOLPHUS WASHINGTON DT 2ND


Notre Dame, Florida State, and Ole Miss were the only other schools with multiple first team picks. 

Between Sporting News' and Phil Steele's All-American teams, nine Ohio State players have been bequeathed with the prestigious preseason honors. 

Let's hope this isn't the end of the award train, either.
