Ohio State Defensive End Chase Young has been named the Big 10 Defensive Player of the Year.

In spite of missing two games due to suspension, Young notched 38 total tackles and 16.5 sacks, which is a school record.

In other Ohio State Football news, head coach Ryan Day, in his first year at the helm, was named the Big 10 Coach of the Year, sharing the honor with Minnesota head coach P.J. Fleck.

Shockingly, that's the first time a Buckeyes head coach has won the honor since Earl Bruce did it 40 years ago.

The Buckeyes, meanwhile, remain number 1 in the College Football Playoff Committee rankings that were released on Tuesday night. There was no change in the top rankings over last week as LSU, Clemson, and Georgia round out the top 4. 

Ohio State takes on Wisconsin Saturday night in the Big 10 Championship Game that's being hosted at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Kickoff is at 8 p.m. and you can hear it all on 1590 WAKR and 93.5 FM.
