Kirk Herbstreit put out his top performers on Monday like he does every week. There was a B1G player that got mentioned on his list.
It’s no surprise that Herbie is one of the people who is also high on J.T. Tuimoloau after his performance from Week 9. Tuimoloau was a dominant force of the defensive side of the ball for the Buckeyes.
Ohio State went on to win 44-31 partially due to Tuimoloau’s efforts on Saturday. Tuimoloau was fourth on the team in total tackles (6), led the team in tackles for loss (3), and also lead the team in turnovers (2 INTs, 1 FF).
Top performing players from WEEK 9!

Other players who Herbie liked from Week 9 were N.C. State’s M.J. Morris, UNC’s Drake Maye and Antoine Green, Tennessee’s Hendon Hooker and Jalin Hyatt, UCLA’s Zach Charbonnet, Ole Miss’ Quinshon Judkins, Oregon’s Bo Nix, and Missouri’s Isaiah McGuire.
We’ll see what other accolades Tuimoloau receives with plenty of action left before the regular season comes to a close.
