Year in and year out, the Big Ten is one of the top conferences in NCAA Football. Programs like Ohio State, Michigan, and Wisconsin have been powerhouses for quite some time and it does not look like that will change anytime soon.
The Big Ten is known for their extremely competitive defensive battles. Conference games are usually won on the defensive line as the games are played in the trenches. Sometimes, offenses will have to step up and make a play to win a big game.
This is where the wide receivers come into play. The Big Ten saw five receivers get selected in the 2020 NFL Draft. K.J. Hamler headlined the bunch as he was selected by the Denver Broncos with the 46th overall pick. Tyler Johnson, Quintez Cephus, Donovan Peoples-Jones, and K.J. Hill were the other receivers selected.
The 2020 season will be no different. The Big Ten is loaded once again with wide receiver talent. Here are the top five wide receivers to keep an eye on throughout the season.
