  "summary": "In the first two weeks of the Big 12 football season, Micah Welch of Colorado has emerged as one of the top rushing yardage leaders in the conference, surpassing 100 yards in his debut against Weber State. Cincinnati's Gi Bran Payne also joined the elite group with a 100-yard performance against West Carolina. BYU's LJ Martin, the reigning Offensive Player of the Year, has yet to achieve a 100-yard rushing game but showed near-miss potential against Arizona with 98 yards. The top 10 rushing yards leaders and touchdown leaders are detailed in the Yahoo Sports report, with Cam Cook from West Virginia and JC French from Cincinnati leading in both categories.",
