MAC Football 2025 All-Conference Team

Selecting the best players for the 2025 MAC Football All-Conference Team.

MAC Football 2025 All-Conference Team originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

The 2025 All-MAC Team is led by 19 selections from Toledo, with Miami (Ohio) and Buffalo (14) headlining the next tier of teams with the most picks on the all-conference squad.

With the release of the Athlon Sports 2025 College Football Preview Magazine, it’s time to take a look at the best of the best and honor the top players in the league with a release of first, second, third and fourth all-conference teams for '25.

An important note on the all-conference teams: These are based on how players will perform in 2025. Career statistics and awards matter in the evaluation, but choosing players for the 2025 all-conference team is largely based on predicting and projecting the best for the upcoming year. Also, team strength does not play a role in selections. These are the best individual players at each position in the league for '25.
