After a heartbreaking loss to No. 12 BYU in Provo, Utah, No. 17 Baylor football looked to redeem itself against Texas State University. The green and gold claimed a blowout 42-7 victory over the Bobcats on Saturday at McLane Stadium, and despite a choppy start, head coach Dave Aranda’s team found its stride in the second half.

Freshman running back Richard Reese carried the load offensively, posting 156 yards on 19 carries to go with three touchdowns. Reese played in place of junior running back Taye McWilliams, who was out with an injury.
