Big Ten Media Days: Who made the Big Ten’s preseason honors for football?

The Big Ten rolled out its preseason honorees this week ahead of Big Ten Media Days.

Big Ten football is back.

Ahead of Wednesday’s Big Ten Media Days, the conference announced the 10 players who comprise the football preseason honorees. Experience certainly seems to matter as nine of the players selected made an All-Big Ten team a season ago.

Eight different Big Ten teams were represented among the 10 players selected. Michigan and Minnesota each placed multiple places among the honorees.

Here are the 10 players selected by a media panel to be the Big Ten’s football preseason honorees:

EAST

  • Taulia Tagovailoa, QB, Maryland
  • Blake Corum, RB, Michigan
  • J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan
  • Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Ohio State
  • Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OL, Penn State

 

WEST

  • Jer’Zhan Newton, DL, Illinois
  • Cooper DeJean, DB, Iowa
  • Brevyn Spann-Ford, TE, Minnesota
  • Tyler Nubin, DB, Minnesota
  • Braelon Allen, RB, Wisconsin

The Big Ten schedule opens up on Thursday, Aug. 31 with a game between Nebraska at Minnesota.
