Alabama WR Amari Cooper – Cooper has been solid all season and was outstanding in the Iron Bowl as Alabama overtook Auburn late to keep its national title hopes alive. Cooper ranks second in receiving yards and receiving TDs with 1,573 and 14 respectively behind Colorado State’s Rashard Higgins, who has been impressive in his own right but Cooper gets the nod as a candidate because he has done it on a bigger stage and for one of the best teams in the nation.
