2. Tanner Morgan, Minnesota
Minnesota was the surprise of the Big Ten last season, and much of that miraculous 11-2 run was due to Morgan's emergence.

After taking over the reins of the Gopher offense midway through his redshirt freshman year in 2018, Morgan started all 13 games in '19 and posted one of the best passing campaigns in school history.
Morgan set season program records for passing yards (3,253), touchdown passes (30), completion percentage (66.0), passing yards per game (250.2), touchdown-to-interception ratio (30-to-7), and pass efficiency rating (178.7).

He's thrown at least one touchdown in his past 14 games - also a UM record - and was a consensus second-team all-conference selection last year. Morgan is already getting plenty of run in early 2021 NFL Draft conversations and should once again have Minnesota as one of the teams to beat in the Big Ten West this season.


Go Gophers!!
