We posted photos from the Big Ten Football Championship throughout the game itself. Now look back and see some great shots of  Russell Wilson, Montee Ball, Keshawn Johnson, a three-photo sequence of that crazy lateral by Keith Nichol, and much more.  And since we're on the topic of great images, watch a very cool video from the  BTN pregame show spotlighting the images of the year in the Big Ten.
