West Virginia's Cam Cook has led the Big 12 in rushing yards for most of the season. However, with the Mountaineers on bye, Iowa State's Aiden Flora took over after his 221-yard performance against Oklahoma State over the weekend. He also had two rushing touchdowns, including a 75-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.

However, that shouldn't take away from Oklahoma State's running back, Caleb Hawkins. Hawkins also had a career day, logging 194 rushing yards and two touchdowns, including a 75-yard touchdown run in the third quarter.

Texas Tech's running back, J'Koby Williams, also had a strong day with 175 rushing yards and a touchdown. His quarterback, Tommy Castellanos, also threw for over 100 yards. Cardae Mack of Arizona State also had a big day, rushing for 123 yards.
