Ranking the Big Ten: Offensive Guard (1. Greg Johnson, Minnesota)

[BleedGopher]

Per Husker Online Staff:

1. Greg Johnson, Minnesota​

Greg Johnson has opened many holes and kept the pocket clean inside the trenches over his tenure as a Gopher. At 6-foot-6, 325 pounds, he boasts 28 starts over three seasons with only four sacks allowed in 1,972 snaps.

Meanwhile, the 2025 All-Big Ten honorable mention honoree’s 73.4 run-blocking grade on PFF was 15th among guards in the country. In fact, only two returning Big Ten guards graded above him. One of whom is Iowa’s Kade Pieper, who moved to center over the off-season.

There really is no weakness to the Prior Lake, Minnesota, native, and that’s why he carries our No. 1 ranking.

He picked Johnson because Nebraska was in his final 28. Total Dink. Even if he has seen the light.
