Pancakes for breakfast every day and twice on Saturdays.

Creed Humphrey was named Big 12 co-offensive lineman of the year alongside Colton McKivitz of West Virginia.

Humphrey has without a doubt been the anchor of an offensive line that has had its fair share of ebbs and flows this season. The junior has been rock steady after working alongside four linemen last season who are now all on NFL rosters.

Humphrey makes the fourth consecutive Sooner lineman to have won at least a share of the award.

Behind Humphrey, quarterback Jalen Hurts has passed for 3,347 yards, rushed for 1,217 and has combined for 50 total touchdowns. Humphrey has also opened holes in the trenches for Kennedy Brooks who has rushed for 917 yards, fourth-best in the Big 12.

Humphrey and Oklahoma will be in another dog fight this Saturday as they will rematch Baylor for the Big 12 Championship and a possible College Football Playoff birth. The game can be found on FOX with kickoff set for 11a.m. CT.

5 NFL Draft prospects to watch for Lions fans in CFB Week 13

Five players Lions fans should watch in college week 13, including Zack Moss and Antonio Gandy-Golden

The college football season is wrapping up quickly. Just a couple of weeks are left on the Saturday slate, just a few more chances to get a leg up on the scouting for the 2020 NFL Draft.

Here are five players on display in Saturday’s games that should interest the Detroit Lions when draft season rolls around. Not every one of these is a top-shelf prospect. Remember, there are seven rounds and the Lions are in need of a lot of help…

Shaun Wade, CB, Ohio State

He’s only a redshirt sophomore but there are whispers Wade will declare early. And the twitchy 6-1 corner would look very good in Honolulu Blue.

Wade plays almost exclusively in the slot, which is unusual for a longer CB with his athleticism and speed. But it makes him a great fit for Detroit, which can use help inside given the recent play from Justin Coleman and the complete lack of depth behind him.

Two big feathers in Wade’s cap that you can check out when his Buckeyes face off against Penn State in the de facto Big Ten East title game (12 p.m. ET, FOX): he tackles like a strong safety and he communicates very well with his fellow DBs in transitions.
