The annual Doak Walk watch list was released Wednesday and 16 running backs from the nonautomatic qualifying conferences were honored, including the nation's top returning tailback, Ball State's MiQuale Lewis.

The award is presented by the Guaranty Bank SMU Forum and is given to the nation's top running back.

Five running backs from Conference USA and the Mid-American Conference were honored, which was the most among the non-AQ conferences.

The Guaranty Bank SMU Forum board of directors will choose semifinalists on Nov. 11 and the finalists will be determined on Nov. 23.

BYU's Luke Staley won the award in 2001 and was the last player from the non-AQ schools to win. Trevor Cobb from Rice (1991) and LaDainian Tomlinson from TCU (2000) also won the award.
