LOGAN, Utah – Utah State football Hall of Famer Bobby Wagner has been named to the Senior Bowl 75th Anniversary Team it was announced Tuesday.
 
The selections were made by a public, online fan vote, NFL General Managers and Personnel, and Senior Bowl Committee and staff. The Team includes 19 Pro Football Hall of Famers, eight MVP Awards, 119 All-Pro First Team selections, 63 All-Pro Second Team selections, and 253 Pro Bowl selections.
 
Wagner was named the North's Most Outstanding Player of the 2012 Senior Bowl as he helped his team to a 23-13 win at Ladd-Peebles Stadium in Mobile, Alabama.
 
A crowd of 40,646 in attendance and a national television audience on the NFL Network saw Wagner snare an interception and lead the North with seven tackles, tying for game-high honors. One of Wagner's seven tackles was for a loss, and he also had a pass breakup at the goal line.
 
Wagner, a native of Ontario, California (Colony HS), led the Western Athletic Conference and ranked eighth in Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) in tackles during the 2011 season with 11.3 per game, ranking tied for third in the FBS in total tackles with 147. Wagner earned first-team all-WAC accolades for the third-straight season and was a strong candidate for the WAC Defensive Player of the Year in 2011. In the Aggies' 13 games that season, Wagner posted nine double-digit tackle outings, highlighted by a career-high 20 stops against Louisiana Tech, while adding 18 stops against Colorado State.
 
Following his collegiate career, Wagner was selected in the second round (47th overall pick) of the 2012 NFL Draft by the Seattle Seahawks. During his illustrious NFL career, Wagner has been named First-Team All-Pro six times, Second-Team All-Pro three times and is an eight-time Pro Bowl selection. He was named to the NFL's All-Decade Team (2010s) and has led the NFL in tackles twice. He also helped the Seahawks to back-to-back Super Bowl appearances, including a Super Bowl title in 2014.
