The Big 12’s leading rusher was tackling running backs at the end of last season. Abram Smith had 1,249 yards rushing for ninth-ranked Baylor after being a starting linebacker the final four games in 2020. Iowa State junior Breece Hall has rushed for a TD in 23 consecutive games to tie an FBS record. The Big 12 doesn’t yet have a 3,000-yard passer of 1,000-yard receiver this year. But Smith and Hall are among the league’s national-best five 1,000-yard rushers already. There is the chance to add two more in the last regular-season games this week.
