Take Two: Who should be Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year?

The Big Ten will announce the Nagurski-Woodson Defensive Player of the Year at 6 p.m. Monday.

So, in the meantime, we decided to ask two of our Big Ten writers for their takes: Who's more deserving of the defensive award -- Penn State defensive end Carl Nassib or Ohio State defensive end Joey Bosa?

Austin Ward: Ohio State's Bosa

The award is almost certainly going to come down to individual statistics, and clearly the edge there will go to Carl Nassib with Joey Bosa’s production appearing to have slipped on paper.
