The Bears (8-4, 6-3) racked up 603 yards of offense and forced three Kansas turnovers in winning their sixth straight game. Robertson finished 23-of-31 passing, connecting on his first nine throws. Dawson Pendergrass added 104 yards rushing on 11 carries and Josh Cameron had eight catches for 102 yards and a score. For Kansas (5-7, 4-5), Jalen Daniels passed for 280 yards but was intercepted twice. Devin Neal rushed for 133 yards and a TD on 20 carries as the Jayhawks had a three-game winning streak snapped. Until Saturday, Kansas&#8217;s six losses were by an average of five points and none were by more than 11. The Jayhawks dominated the game&#8217;s first 10 minutes, driving to a missed field goal on their opening possession and then lighting the scoreboard on their second via a 19-yard TD run by Neal. Baylor tied it at 7-7 on a 36-yard scoring pass from Robertson to Monaray Baldwin (seven catches, 119 yards, two TDs) with 2:51 left in the first quarter. Robertson and Baldwin connected again, this time on a 39-yard TD pass 56 seconds into the second quarter for a 14-7 lead. Kansas responded with a 26-yard field goal by Tabor Allen with 9:16 to play in the half. But the Bears struck back when Robertson found Cameron for a 14-yard TD three minutes later. Baylor added to its lead on the opening possession of the third on a Washington 10-yard touchdown run. The Bears then expanded their advantage, going 62 yards in seven plays, capped by Robertson&#8217;s 20-yard scoring pass to Pendergrass to make it 35-10 with 6:25 left in the third. Lawrence Arnold countered for Kansas with a 14-yard TD run two plays after a 48-yard pass from Daniels to Luke Grimm, cutting its deficit to 35-17 with five minutes left in the third. Washington crashed over from the 1 to boost the lead to 42-17 with seven seconds to play in the third, two snaps after his 50-yard run put Baylor on the doorstep. &#8211;Field Level Media<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 480px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/imgupload\/41cabd8af695ff46c0664d18927673dd.jpg\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><\/p>\n<p>Nov 30, 2024; Waco, Texas, USA; Baylor Bears wide receiver Josh Cameron (34) celebrates after scoring a touchdown against the Kansas Jayhawks during the first half at McLane Stadium.
