1935 All-Pacific Coast football team explained
The 1935 All-Pacific Coast football team consists of American football players chosen by various organizations for All-Pacific Coast teams for the 1935 college football season. The organizations and individuals selecting teams in 1935 included the Associated Press (AP), USC head coach Howard Jones (HJ), the Newspaper Enterprise Association (NEA), The Oregon Statesman (OS), the United Press (UP), and UCLA coach William H. Spaulding (WS).
Stanford and California tied for the Pacific Coast Conference (PCC) championship. Each placed five players on the first teams chosen by one or more of the selectors. Stanford's honorees included fullback Bobby Grayson, end Monk Moscrip, and tackle Bob Reynolds. California's honorees included tackle Larry Lutz, end Jack Brittingham, and center Bob Herwig.
Four players from teams outside the PCC received first-team honors from at least one selector: guard Nick Bassi of Santa Clara Broncos (HJ, UP), halfback John Oravec of the Willamette Bearcats (OS), guard Marty Kordick of St. Mary's (WS), and center Wagner Jorgensen of St. Mary's (HJ).
