  2020 ALL-ACC FOOTBALL HONORABLE MENTION (COACHES/MEDIA): RB - Christian Beal-Smith, Wake Forest, 28,...Beal-Smith was named ACC Running Back of the Week after North Carolina on Nov. 14, carrying the ball for 120 yards against the Tar Heels. The Winston-Salem, N.C. native leads the Demon Deacons in rushing with 650 yards on 121 carries this season. This included racking up 129 yards on 13 carries versus No. 19 Virginia Tech on Oct. 24.

  Spencer Rattler threw three touchdown passes and ran for another score, Rhamondre Stevenson rushed for 186 yards and No. 8 Oklahoma beat 10th-ranked SEC runner-up Florida 55-20 on Wednesday night in the Cotton Bowl. Back in the same NFL stadium where 11 days earlier they won their sixth consecutive Big 12 title, the Sooners (9-2, No. 6 CFP) jumped out to a 17-0 lead in the first seven minutes. The 55 points were their most ever in a bowl game, while piling up a Cotton Bowl-record 684 total yards. Rattler threw a 27-yard TD pass to fellow freshman Marvin Mims on the game's opening drive, and Florida's first possession ended with Tre Norwood's 45-yard interception return for a touchdown. That was the first of three picks thrown by Heisman Trophy finalist quarterback Kyle Trask in the first quarter, after only five all season.

Oklahoma played in its sixth consecutive New Year's Six bowl game, but the last three seasons had lost College Football Playoffs semifinal games while giving up an average of 54 points to different SEC teams. The Sooners finished this season with an eight-game winning streak. They had started 0-2 in Big 12 play for the first time since 1998, effectively knocking them out of playoff contention by mid-October. These Gators (8-4, No. 7 CFP) were much different than the team that just 11 days earlier fell 52-46 to No. 1 Alabama in the SEC title game, and had averaged nearly 42 points a game. - AP College Football

  12/29/20 - Nick Muse, rSr/2022, South Carolina, 6-5, 258 (DS#20 TE) + More +

  Nothing's official yet, but South Carolina football's new tight ends coach certainly seems confident that the Gamecocks' top player at the position will return for another season. Erik Kimrey has been a part of new head coach Shane Beamer's staff for only a couple of days, but he's taken the time to speak with senior Nick Muse, who led the tight end unit in 2020 with 30 catches, 425 yards and a touchdown. And from that conversation, Kimrey said, he got a positive indication that Muse will be back. "Had a great conversation, and I feel confident that he's gonna be back next year," Kimrey said. "He's still working through some things in terms of talking to some people, but we had a wonderful conversation. He seems like a great guy and I look forward to him coming back and being a great leader on this team. We need him." - Rock Hill Herald

He had a long punt of 53 yards this season and had seven punts of 50 or more yards. - South Carolina Football

  Oklahoma's 27-21 triumph over Iowa State in the Big 12 championship game marked the Sooners' FBS-leading 50th conference title. Nebraska ranks second among all FBS programs with 46 conference titles. But this is the first Oklahoma team to win a conference title after starting out 0-2 in league play. The Sooners have won seven straight since falling to Kansas Stat and Iowa State early in the season. Clemson and Oklahoma are the first teams in any active conference to win six consecutive league titles outright. Oklahoma won 12 straight outright league titles from 1948-59 in the Big Eight, which no longer exists. - AP College Football

  Spencer Rattler threw a 45-yard touchdown to Marvin Mims and also ran for a score as No. 12 Oklahoma won its sixth consecutive Big 12 title, holding on to beat No. 8 Iowa State 27-21 in the conference championship game Saturday. That impressive title streak probably won't be enough to get the Sooners (8-2, No. 10 CFP) back in the College Football Playoff for the fourth year in a row, even when paired with their seven-game winning streak. Oklahoma lost at Iowa State on Oct. 3 and was 0-2 in Big 12 play for the first time since 1998.

Big 12 rushing leader Breece Hall ran for two touchdowns for the Cyclones (8-3, No. 6 CFP) in the second half, when Oklahoma punted on its first five drives before Gabe Brkic's 32-yard field goal with 2:01 left. The Sooners finally clinched the game when Iowa State quarterback Brock Purdy was under pressure and threw his third interception, a fluttering pass picked off by Tre Brown inside the 10. The Sooners will play in a New Year's Six game, probably back at AT&T Stadium, after winning their fourth Big 12 championship in a row since the title game was reinstated - with four different starting quarterbacks. Rattler, who finished 22-of-34 passing for 272 yards and his 25th TD, is the first of those QBs who went to Oklahoma as a freshman instead of transferring into the program. - AP College Football

  12/10/20 - Shi Smith, rSr/2021, South Carolina, 5-10, 186 (DS#31 WR) + More +

  South Carolina wide receiver Shi Smith made his plans somewhat clear when he walked on senior day. Then his coach, Mike Bobo, shared his plans publicly. And Tuesday night, the Gamecocks senior said his goodbye. The Union County product could have come back for one season, owing to the NCAA's altered rule during the Coronavirus pandemic. But after four years in Columbia, Smith is moving on and declaring for the NFL draft. Smith worked his way back from a concussion to play his final college game on Saturday. He finished his career with 174 catches, 2,204 yards and 13 touchdowns. As a senior he often carried South Carolina's passing game, catching 57 passes for 633 yards and four scores. - Rock Hill Herald

  South Carolina linebacker Ernest Jones is declaring for the NFL draft. The 6-foot-2, 230-pound junior from Waycross, Georgia has led the Gamecocks in tackles the last two seasons. He announced on social media Tuesday he was leaving South Carolina to enter the NFL draft. Jones is the third defensive starter in the past few weeks to move on to the NFL. Defensive backs Jaycee Horn and Israel Mukuamu both opted out of the final three games of the season after coach Will Muschamp was let go last month. South Carolina wrapped up its season with six straight defeats to finish 2-8. Jones had a team-high 97 tackles in 2019 and followed that up with 86 stops this season. - AP College Football

  2020 DAVEY O'BRIEN AWARD SEMIFINALIST: Spencer Rattler, Oklahoma, Fr.,...Rattler is one of only two freshmen and one of three Big 12 quarterbacks among the 17 semifinalists for the Davey O'Brien Award. The redshirt freshman has completed 178 of 260 passes (69%) for 2,512 yards and 24 touchdowns, compiling a 174.7 passing efficiency rating. He has also rushed for four TDs. He has thrown for at least two touchdown passes in eight of nine games, has registered at least three TD passes in four contests and had four in the Missouri State, Kansas State and Oklahoma State outings.

Among freshman quarterbacks, the Phoenix, Ariz., product paces the country in passing touchdowns (24), passing offense (279.1 ypg), yards per pass attempt (9.7) and total offense (290.6 ypg).
