Penn State running back Saquon Barkley has been an absolute force over the past month, and our Big Ten crew has taken notice. After yet another dominating performance, which included 211 yards of total offense and two touchdowns, Barkley has ascended all the way to the top spot for the Big Ten's offensive player of the year honor, supplanting Ohio State quarterback J.T. Barrett in a close vote.
There is plenty of movement in the rest of the voting, too, as the last few regular-season games approach. For our bonus category this week, we focus on the league's kickers.
