Minnesota Football: Five Gophers named All-Big Ten Offense

The Big Ten announced all-conference selections for offense, and wide receivers Rashod Bateman and Tyler Johnson were both unanimous first-team All-Big Ten selections. Quarterback Tanner Morgan and running back Rodney Smith were both consensus selections for second-team All-Big Ten. Starting left guard Blaise Andries earned a spot on third-team All-Big Ten.

Bateman and Johnson are No. 1 and No. 2, respectively, in receiving yards in the Big Ten, and tied with Ohio State’s Chris Olave for the league lead in receiving touchdowns. Minnesota is the first program in Big Ten history to have two first-team All-Big Ten wife receivers in the same season.
