Five Kentucky Wildcats were named to the preseason All-Southeastern Conference team, selected by league coaches, that was released Thursday by the league office.

Two Wildcats were chosen for the first team, two were selected to the second team and one was tabbed for the third team.

UK?s first-team selections featured senior quarterback Andre? Woodson (Radcliff, Ky.), along with senior tight end Jacob Tamme (Danville, Ky.). Woodson, the 2006 Music City Bowl Most Valuable Player, threw for an impressive 3,515 yards last season and led the SEC in passing yardage per game (270.4), total offense (259.8) and TD passes (31). Tamme caught 32 passes for 386 yards and two touchdowns, leading all SEC tight ends in pass receptions.

Second-team picks included senior wide receiver Keenan Burton (Louisville, Ky.) and senior linebacker Wesley Woodyard (LaGrange, Ga.). Burton was second in the SEC in pass receptions last season, catching 77 passes for 1,036 yards and 12 touchdowns. His 12 TD receptions led the league and is the second-highest single-season mark in school history. Woodyard led the team for the second consecutive season in total tackles with 122 (also second in the SEC and 18th nationally in tackles per game) and tackles for loss with 9.5.

Senior Rafael Little (Anderson, S.C.) was named to the third team as both a running back and kick returner. Despite a nagging knee injury for parts of last season, Little rushed for a team-leading 673 yards and three touchdowns, caught 31 passes for 392 yards and averaged 22.6 yards per punt return and one touchdown. He would have led the nation in punt returns but did not play in enough games to qualify officially.
