Penn State football is well on their way to establishing themselves as Running Back U. Obviously, it all started with the phenomenal three-year career of Saquon Barkley. The current New York Giants rusher dominated the Big Ten and the NCAA as a whole for at least two years before getting selected second-overall in the 2018 NFL Draft.
Following Barkley’s stint, Miles Sanders received the opportunity to lead the backfield alone like Barkley did and he had quite the impressive season as well. Instead of sticking around for another year to improve his draft stock though, Sanders decided to enter the NFL Draft with minimal miles put on his body at the collegiate level.
