Big Ten Football 2022 All-Conference Team
Selecting the 2022 Big Ten Football All-Conference Team.
athlonsports.com
An important note on the all-conference teams: These are based on how players will perform in 2022. Career statistics and awards matter in the evaluation, but choosing players for the 2022 all-conference team is largely based on predicting and projecting the best for the upcoming year. Also, team strength does not play a role in selections. These are the best individual players at each position in the league for '22.
