Oklahoma has seven first-team selections on The Associated Press All-Big 12 team after winning its 10th league title.
Big-play receiver Dede Westbrook, who has 1,465 yards receiving with 16 touchdowns that average 49 yards per score, was selected the Big 12 offensive player of the year with nine votes. That was two more than repeat AP first-team quarterback Baker Mayfield, his junior teammate who was the league's top offensive player last season. Westbrook and Mayfield are both Heisman Trophy finalists, and will be in New York for the ceremony Saturday night.
D'Onta Foreman , who ran for 2,028 yards this season and will leave Texas after a school-record 13 consecutive 100-yard games, got the remaining four votes for top offensive player when the AP All-Big 12 team was released Tuesday.
Kansas State had four first-team picks, including a league-high three on defense . That trio included defensive end Jordan Willis, the AP defensive player of the year by one vote over cornerback Rasul Douglas from West Virginia. Willis and Douglas were the only unanimous defensive picks.
Oklahoma's Bob Stoops was named AP Big 12 coach of the year for a record fifth time. He is only the second coach to win the award in consecutive seasons. Stoops got 15 votes, and West Virginia's Dana Holgorsen got the other five from a panel of 20 journalists who regularly cover the Big 12 throughout the league's five states.
