Once again, the Sooners dominate the all-Big 12 teams.

12 Sooners were honored on the all-Big 12 first and second-teams. First team members include CeeDee Lamb, Jalen Hurts, Creed Humphrey and Kenneth Murray. Both Lamb and Muray landed on the first-team for their first time in their Oklahoma careers.

Kennedy Brooks, Jeremiah Hall, Adrian Ealy, Gabe Brkic, Neville Gallimore, Ronnie Perkins and Parnell Motley were all-Big 12 second-team honorees.

Other Sooners that picked up honorable mentions include Pat Fields, Reeves Mundschau, Jalen Redmond, Delarrin Turner-Yell and DaShaun White.

Oklahoma led the league in honorees followed by Baylor with 10, TCU (9), Iowa State (8), Oklahoma State (6), Kansas State, Texas Tech, West Virginia (5), Texas (4) and Kansas (2).

With not much surprise, both teams with the most Big 12 honorees are the teams playing for the Big 12 Championship and a possible College Football Playoff birth.

Oklahoma and Baylor will face off in a rematch following their thrilling 34-31 bout in November. Kickoff is set for 11a.m. CT on FOX.

Redemption took place, and Oklahoma senior corner Parnell Motley has since been awarded for his performance by the Big 12 Conference.

Redemption took place, and he has since been awarded for his performance.

Senior corner Parnell Motley was benched in the 2017 Bedlam game after a lackluster performance in the first three quarters. On Saturday, he was Oklahoma’s best defensive player.

With an interception (should have been two), two forced fumbles with recovering one, six tackles and a pass break-up, Motley was named the Big 12’s Defensive Player of the Week.

According to an Oklahoma press release, the Sooners three Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week honors are their most since 2015. Brendan ‘Bookie’ Radley-Hiles was named it after the South Dakota game and Kenneth Murray was named it after the Texas game.

Motley has been a steadying force for Oklahoma this season outside of the Kansas State game when he was ejected. The senior has forced four fumbles and a team-high 11 pass breakups this season. His interception against Oklahoma State was his first on the year.

I need meat judging season tickets.

What’s a Bedlam game without a Mike Stoops reference?
