ESPN ranks the Big 12's 25 best college football players for 2020
ESPN’s Kyle Bonagura and Dave Wilson collaborated to come up with the top 25 players in the Big 12 for the 2020 season. Overall Texas, TCU, and Oklahoma State led the way for the conference with four selections for each team. Baylor linebacker Terrel Bernard and quarterback Charlie Brewer were the two Bears who made the list with Bernard coming in at 12 and Brewer at 22.
12. Terrel Bernard, LB, Baylor
As a sophomore, Bernard had 112 tackles in 2019 with 9.5 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks to lead a stingy Baylor defense and helped fill in for the loss of Clay Johnston, who was leading the team in tackles at the time of a season-ending injury. Bernard had a career-high 19 tackles against TCU, the most by a Baylor player since 2011. He was a second-team All-Big 12 pick last season and begins the year on several national award watch lists.
22. Charlie Brewer, QB, Baylor
One of the nation's few fourth-year starting quarterbacks, Brewer was an All-Big 12 honorable mention pick in 2019 when he threw for 3,161 yards with 21 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He enters the season ranked No. 2 nationally among active quarterbacks with 7,742 passing yards, behind only Texas' Sam Ehlinger (8,870).
