Defensive lineman McTelvin Agim and linebacker De'Jon Harris made the teams, which were voted on by the league's head coaches. Coaches were not permitted to vote for their own players.

Agim had 25 tackles, including 2.5 sacks while playing in all 12 games. He tied for second on the team with five tackles for loss.

Harris' role increased after Arkansas' leading tackler Dre Greenlaw suffered a broken foot against Alabama in October. Harris finished the season with 34 tackles, including a sack, and also had a forced fumble.
