per the Madison Leader Gazette:
The 2020 Big Ten running back of the year racked up 1,076 rushing yards on 201 carries and 15 touchdowns in 2020. He averaged 153.7 yards per game and now holds the highest season rushing yardage per game in Minnesota football history.
The Golden Gophers sputtered to a 3-4 record after an 11-2 finish in 2019. Ibrahim, a 2020 first-team All-Big Ten selection, was consistently a bright spot on P.J. Fleck‘s offense. He scored a staggering 83.3 offense grade and 83.4 run grade on Pro Football Focus (PFF).
Minnesota has three top-tier offensive linemen in right tackle Blaise Andries, right guard Conner Olsen and center John Michael Schmitz. These big men have displayed their ability to open holes for Ibrahim, and he has more than proven his ability to hit them and burn defenses.
