Wow, I just looked up the 2003 All-Big Ten team. The QBs are dumb.
QB - John Navarre, UM (Abdul-Khaliq had a far superior season...Smoker was 2nd team, led the conf in INT)
RB - Chris Perry, UM
RB - Marion Barber III
WR -Braylon Edwards, UM
WR - Lee Evans, UW
TE - Ben Utecht, MN/Ben Hartsock, OSU (tie)
C - Greg Eslinger, MN
G - David Baas, UM
G - Alex Stepanovich, OSU
T - Robert Gallery, Iowa
T - Tony Pape, UM
.
DL - Matt Roth, Iowa
DL - Will Smith, OSU
DL - Shaun Phillips, PU
DL - Tim Anderson, OSU/Anttaj Hawthorne, UW (tie)
LB - AJ Hawk, OSU
LB - Niko Koutouvides, PU
LB - Alex Lewis, UW/Abdul Hodge, Iowa (tie)
DB - Bob Sanders, Iowa
DB - Stuart Schweigert, PU
DB - Jim Leonhard, UW
DB - Will Allen, OSU/Chris Gamble, OSU (tie)
.
K - Nate Kaeding, Iowa (Nugent 2nd - had to be the best pair of kickers in a conference simultaneously)
P - BJ Sander, OSU/Brandon Fields, MSU (tie)
.
I get it, they won the B1G, but this Michigan offense averaged under 450 yards per game...with the 1st team QB, RB, WR, and 2 OL. That's some underperformance, no?
