Yep, more watch lists, although that essentially means we’re all one day closer to the start of a brand-new college football season.

Regardless, the latest to release their preseason watch lists are the Mackey Award and the Rimington Trophy. The former consists of 33 tight ends, the latter 63 centers.

The only 2014 finalists for either of last year’s awards is Michigan State’s Jack Allen, who was one of six finalists for the Rimington Trophy that ultimately went to Auburn’s Reese Dismukes.

Colorado State and Virginia Tech are the only two teams with a pair of tight ends placed on the Mackey watch list. Last year’s winner was Florida State’s Nick O’Leary.

Among Power Five programs, the Pac-12 and SEC led all conferences with eight apiece on the Rimington watch list. The ACC is next among the P5 with seven, followed by the Big Ten and Big 12 at six each.

The Group of Five is actually well-represented when compared to the big boys, with seven centers each appearing on the list from both Conference USA and the MAC.
