RB Justice Hill, Oklahoma State: Topped the Big 12 with 1,347 yards and 14 TDs on the ground.

OT Bobby Evans, Oklahoma: Overshadowed by Orlando Brown, but a dominating force at OU’s other bookend.

DEFENSE
DE Ogbonnia Okoronkwo, Oklahoma: Third in the Big 12 with eight sacks and second with 17.5 tackles for loss.
DT Poona Ford, Texas: The biggest reason Texas held opponents to fewer than 100 yards rushing seven times.

LB David Long Jr., West Virginia: Came back from a preseason knee injury to finish eighth in the Big 12 with 69 tackles in conference play.
CB Ranthony Texada, TCU: Trailed only DeShon Elliott in the league in “disrupted dropbacks” (sacks/interceptions/batted passes/passes defended).
S Nick Orr, TCU: The backbone of the TCU secondary, he had the game-clinching pick in the win at Oklahoma State.
S DeShon Elliott, Texas: A Thorpe finalist and an ESPN All-American, he led the Big 12 with six interceptions.
CB Brian Peavy, Iowa State: Despite playing cornerback, finished third on Iowa State with 81 tackles and had a 70-yard interception return in a win over TCU.
