Arguably, the Big Ten had the best production from its running backs then any other conference in college football. Even though the college football landscape has turned into a throwing league, the Big Ten still believes in smash mouth football.
The conference had three players in the top 10 nationally in running yards per game: Chase Brown, Mo Ibrahim, and Blake Corum. Ibrahim and Corum were both in the top five for touchdowns on the year.
In this article we are going to show you how the best running backs graded in the Big Ten. We ranked anyone that had 100 or more carries on the season, so there is 19 running backs on the list. The grades come via Pro Football Focus.
