Center | AlabamaJones solidified his place as one of the greatest players in Alabama history by postponing surgery for a left foot injury to play in the Crimson Tide's victory in the Discover BCS National Championship. Jones, the Rimington Trophy winner as college football's top center, tore ligaments in his left foot against Georgia in the SEC championship game on Dec. 1, but played through the Lisfranc (midfoot) injury to help the Tide win their third national title in four years. Jones was about the only player to touch Tide quarterback AJ McCarron all night, shoving his teammate after a disagreement in the fourth quarter.
