per the Q&A:
@Peart_Meade: @BennettESPN @ESPN_BigTen Who is the running back to look out for this year after so many leaving for the draft?
Brian Bennett: The returning star is Ohio State's Ezekiel Elliott, who's a legitimate preseason Heisman Trophy contender. Wisconsin's Corey Clement will be the next big thing and is a lock, if he stays healthy, for 1,200-plus yards. Those two should battle for the league rushing title. Northwestern's Justin Jackson somewhat quietly had 1,000 yards as a freshman and could do even more this year. Keep an eye on Indiana's Jordan Howard, taking over for Tevin Coleman after transferring from UAB, and Rodrick Williams at Minnesota if he holds on to that job. Both teams have very good offensive lines and will run the ball a lot.
