Junior Jalil Farooq leads the team in receiving yards with 547 yards on 33 receptions to go with two touchdowns and senior Drake Stoops has hauled in a team-leading 52 receptions and his 528 receiving yards is second on the team. Stoops is coming off career-highs 12 receptions for 134 yards.

WILL linebacker Danny Stutsman leads the team in tackles with 73, ranking third in league, is second in the Big 12 in tackles for a loss with 11.5, along with two sacks. The junior was out in the loss to Oklahoma State and questionable versus West Virginia.
