Go Gophers!!
 


Great! Getting some respect from his peers! Maybe a few QB's will get scared and make the mistake of throwing it Eric Murray's way this year!
 

I'd guess two players from OSU voted for BBC. He's a big game guy for sure.
 

I'm gonna quote the whole thing because the snippet makes no sense...

Bosa was the expected first-place finisher here -- he could be the No. 1 pick in next year’s NFL draft, after all -- but there was definitely a nice variety of picks. Calhoun actually took an early 3-0 lead over Bosa so, for a while, we thought he might lose out.

But, of course, the emoticon-loving end took eight of the last 14 votes and won handily. But why pick Calhoun over Bosa in the first place?

“[Calhoun] has a variance of long arms and his athleticism, his strength, his speed -- all those tie together,” one player told us. “Being the big-bodied frame he is, it makes it a pretty good package for a D-end.”

Check back later this afternoon to see the results from the final question: Besides your own head coach, what B1G head coach would you most like to play for?

Boom. Look out. There is another great CB on the other side of the field. Our opposition will know soon enough.
