All-conference honors will probably be slim this year. Here's my guess at who gets recognition:
- Jaylin Lucas - should be first team return specialist. He led the conference in kick return yards, return average, and was the only player with multiple return TDs this year. That said, the B10 will probably put him 3rd team behind players from Michigan or Ohio State.
- James Evans - possibly 2nd/3rd team punter on some list. He had most punts, 2nd most punt yards, tied for most 50+ yard punts, and top 3 for dropping kicks inside the 20.
- Aaron Casey - definitely honorable mention, but may be a long shot 3rd teamer. Top 5 in solo tackles and top 9 in TFLs in the conference.
- Other honorable mention possibilities - Noah Pierre, Taiwan Mullen, Shaun Shivers, Josh Henderson, Cam Camper
