Ohio State's Weber proposes rushing wager with Barkley, Guice

Greg Bartram / USA TODAY Sports

Mike Weber is challenging two of the nation's best running backs this season.

The Ohio State back asked Saquon Barkley and Derrius Guice if they'd be willing to put dinner on the line when it comes to the most rushing yards this season.

Barkley confidently accepted, but Guice added a twist to the bet:

It's a bold bet from Weber, considering he fell significantly short of Barkley and Guice in both rushing yards and touchdowns last year. Perhaps the motivation of avoiding a hefty dinner bill will propel Weber into a stronger 2017.
