By Big 12 Conference: Utah running back Micah Bernard (offensive) and quarterback Isaac Wilson (newcomer), West Virginia spur Tyrin Bradley Jr. (defensive) plus BYU returner Parker Kingston (special teams) were selected as Big 12 award winners for the fourth week of the season.
Bernard’s performance in Utah’s win at then-No. 14 Oklahoma State featured career highs of 25 rushes and 182 yards. His 182 rushing yards were the second most by a Big 12 player this season and the most by a Ute since 2019. Bernard eclipsed the 100-yard mark for a third consecutive game with a conference-best average of 7.3 yards per carry for the week.
Wilson was key to his team’s win in Stillwater in just his second career start. He became Utah’s first true freshman starting quarterback in recorded program history to beat an AP-ranked team, throwing for 207 yards and a touchdown that included six completions of 15 yards or more. Wilson also had a pivotal 48-yard run in the third quarter before completing a 45-yard touchdown pass to Brant Kuithe with six minutes remaining.
