  04/26/22 - Dillon Doyle, rSr/2023, Baylor, 6-3, 238 (DS#19 ILB) + More +

  Terrel Bernard wasn't just a three-time all-Big 12 linebacker, he was a tremendous leader with an exemplary work ethic that made his Baylor teammates want to follow. Talk about going out with a bang: In Baylor's 21-7 Sugar Bowl win over Ole Miss, Bernard amassed a career-high 20 tackles and two sacks in his final game as a senior. Those are Mike Singletary numbers.

With Bernard gone, fifth-year senior Dillon Doyle is the obvious next man up to take over the leadership role for Baylor's linebackers. "It's a pleasure, it's great to just have that guy around," said Baylor defensive coordinator and inside linebackers coach Ron Roberts. "Not just what he provides as a good player, but what he provides from a leadership standpoint and how to do things. He's first-class in everything. I can't say enough about him, and you guys know that." After transferring from Iowa, Doyle has started for Baylor for the past two seasons. He's coming off a tremendous junior year as he ranked second behind Bernard with 89 tackles with nine for loss along with an interception and a forced fumble. Nicknamed Diesel, Doyle even stepped in at fullback occasionally on the goal line as he ran for a touchdown and caught a touchdown pass. He's more than ready to take over leadership roles that Bernard and All-America safety Jalen Pitre carried last season for Baylor's defense. - Waco Tribune Herald

  2021 WAC FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR (COACHES): Kamren Washington, DL, Sam Houston,...Washington, a defensive lineman from Mansfield, Texas, held his own on the talented Bearkat defensive line, finishing the season with 13 tackles and a sack. His best game came on Oct. 9 against Lamar, making four tackles in a 41-7 win over the Cardinals. He recorded a tackle in nine of 10 games he played in this season. - Western Athletic Conference Football

  01/01/22 - Terrel Bernard, rSr/2022, Baylor, 6-1, 218 (DS#14 OLB) + More +

  A Sugar Bowl showdown against Mississippi and coach Lane Kiffin's explosive, Southeastern Conference-leading offense provided a high-profile platform for Baylor to validate its old-school formula of ball control and aggressive defense. Al Walcott set a Sugar Bowl record with a 96-yard interception return, Monaray Baldwin raced 48 yards for the go-ahead score on an end around, and sixth-ranked Baylor beat No. 8 Mississippi 21-7 Saturday night as injured Rebels quarterback Matt Corral watched from the sideline on crutches.

Abram Smith rushed for 172 yards to finish with a single-season record 1,601 for Big 12 champion Baylor (12-2), which won 12 games in a season for the first time. The defense did the rest, finishing with 10 sacks - two by game MVP Terrel Bernard - and three interceptions. "I would not put it as necessarily as a point to prove," Baylor coach Dave Aranda said when summing up the significance of the victory. "I would say it as more of an identity to show...Just to take the stage and to take the lights and the crowd and all of that and to, like, be us - all the way, man. "You want other people to see it," Aranda continued. "I'm appreciative that we had the opportunity, and we took advantage of it." - Baylor/AP College Football

  12/16/21 - Clark Barrington, rSr/2024, Baylor, 6-5, 293 (DS#18 C) + More +

  BYU offensive lineman Clark Barrington has seen the accolades pile up in recent days. Barrington on Monday confirmed that he will be returning to BYU next season. "I kind of already have my mind made up," he said. "I'm going to be here next year and to continue to build upon what I've done and hopefully there's more in the future." The 6-foot-6, 320-pound Barrington was a stalwart this season, starting every game for the Cougars at left guard. "It's always good to feel noticed and that your hard work is paying off," he said when asked about his All-American recognition. "So it's been a good time, but I really haven't been dwelling on it a whole lot. There's more to do. I'm just looking forward to the future and the other things I'm going to be able to do here." - Salt Lake Tribune

  11/27/21 - Abram Smith, rSr/2022, Baylor, 6-0, 213 (DS#8 RB) + More +

  Blake Shapen threw for 254 yards and two touchdowns in his first start for ninth-ranked Baylor, and the Bears held on for a 27-24 win over Texas Tech on Saturday that kept alive their hopes of making the Big 12 championship game for the second time in three seasons. Abram Smith ran for 117 yards and a touchdown for the Bears (10-2, 7-2 Big 12, CFP No. 8), who had to wait for the outcome of Saturday night’s game between No. 7 Oklahoma State and No. 10 Oklahoma. The Cowboys were already locked into their first Big 12 title game, and a win over the Sooners in Bedlam would put Baylor in next Saturday’s game with them.

Shapen hit Trestan Ebner in stride down near the 25 for a 61-yard catch-and-run score on the game’s opening drive that put Baylor ahead to stay. Shapen had a decisive 9-yard TD pass to tight end Ben Sims with 7 minutes left to immediately respond to a Tech score. The Red Raiders (6-6, 3-6) still had one more chance after stopping Baylor on fourth down on its 12 with 1:18 and no timeouts left. They got in position for a 53-yard field goal attempt by Jonathan Garibay, who had plenty of leg but pushed the kick wide left on the final play. Garibay had a game-ending 62-yarder to beat Iowa State two week earlier. Donovan Smith threw for 243 yards and had two TD passes for the Red Raiders, who a week earlier had only 108 total yards in a 23-0 loss to Oklahoma State in their home finale. That was the first time Tech was shut out in a 303-game span since 1997. - Baylor/AP College Football

He spearheaded a dominant defensive performance holding OU to just 14 points, 26 below their season average and their fewest points since December of 2014. With his two sacks, Bernard became the sixth player in program history with 14+ career sacks. - Big 12 Football

  10/30/21 - Abram Smith, rSr/2022, Baylor, 6-0, 213 (DS#8 RB) + More +

  Baylor tight end Ben Sims had a 1-yard TD run in the fourth quarter before Abram Smith spun away for a 32-yard scamper to the end zone in a 31-24 win Saturday, when the 16th-ranked Bears became the third team in a row to overcome a double-digit deficit to beat Texas. The handoff to the sweeping Sims for a score with 12:48 left put the Bears (7-1, 4-1 Big 12) back ahead for the first time since the first quarter. Texas then had a failed fake punt attempt, setting up Smith's nifty run three plays later when he took a quick pitch left, reversed field after spinning away from a defender and ran all the way to the end zone.

Texas (4-4, 2-3) was coming off its open date, which followed consecutive losses to No. 4 Oklahoma and No. 15 Oklahoma State in which the Longhorns led by at least two touchdowns before halftime both times. Big 12 rushing leader Bijan Robinson was limited to 43 yards on 17 carries, well below his 132 yards a game average with a 2.5 yard-per-carry that was the lowest in his career. But he did put the Longhorns up 21-10 with his 1-yard TD run on fourth down early in the second half when he followed a pair of blocking nose tackles with a combined weight of 643 yards into the end zone. Smith finished with 113 yards on 20 carries. Gerry Bohanon threw for 222 yards with two interceptions, after only one pick the first six games, and had a 6-yard TD run in the third quarter. - Baylor/AP College Football

  10/17/21 - Dillon Doyle, rSr/2023, Baylor, 6-3, 238 (DS#19 ILB) + More +

  Abram Smith and Dillon Doyle were quite a 1-2 running punch for Baylor, providing future Big 12 foe and 19th-ranked BYU a glimpse at what the Cougars could face in their new conference. Smith ran for 188 yards with three touchdowns, while linebacker and part-time fullback Doyle scored on both of his offensive touches in a 38-24 win Saturday. "Obviously not our best game," BYU coach Kilani Sitake said. "We just were out-physicaled today, so that was a difficult game to accept...Really got a good gut-check." Baylor (6-1) led by only three points midway through the third quarter before Doyle caught a 2-yard TD pass from Gerry Bohanon.

Smith ran for a 7-yard score about 3 1/2 minutes later to make it 31-14, after TJ Franklin's sack that forced a fumble by Cougars quarterback Jaren Hall. "This was a standard game...I think is a big thing for us, having it come from the inside, intrinsically being able to push yourself," second-year Bears coach Dave Aranda said. "That's a big step in the right direction." BYU (5-2) last month accepted an invitation to join the Big 12 Conference starting in the 2023 season. The Cougars have lost back-to-back games for the first time since the end of 2019, after a 5-0 start that included three wins over Pac-12 teams and peaking at No. 10 in the AP Top 25. - Baylor/AP College Football
