Jayden Maiava leads Big Ten in passing yards after opening week

Following the conclusion of Week 1, USC quarterback Jayden Maiava holds the lead in Big Ten passing yardage with 635 total yards. Maiava benefited from an additional game played during Week 0, which helped him establish an early statistical advantage over the rest of the conference. Oregon quarterback Dante Moore currently ranks second in the league with 378 passing yards, while Ohio State’s Julian Sayin sits in third with 320 yards. Other notable performances included Penn State’s Rocco Becht and Indiana’s Josh Hoover, both of whom recorded four touchdown passes in their first games with their new programs. Across the conference, ten players exceeded 240 passing yards during their season debuts. The leaderboard reflects the early-season performance of several high-profile transfer additions and returning starters as conference play continues.
