Kansas unable to put it together against Baylor
Pooka Williams Jr. took the handoff, ran to his right and burst 72 yards up the field on the fifth play of Kansas’ first drive in the second half, setting up the Jayhawk offense inside the Baylor 5-yard line.
It was the kind of big play that Kansas expected from its freshman standout running back after the Jayhawks had amassed 405 rushing yards in their blowout win over Rutgers.
Although Williams’ long run led to a touchdown for Kansas, it took a little too long for the Jayhawks’ offense to get on track, and Baylor, behind a 295-yard, three-touchdown performance from sophomore quarterback Charlie Brewer, earned a 26-7 victory on a cloudy, 73-degree Saturday afternoon at McLane Stadium.
