Weston White/KANSAN
ugh the Jayhawk defenders into the endzone for the first of five Texas touchdowns during Saturday's game. Kansas held Texas to just seven points for much of the first half, but Texas scored its second touchdown with 44 seconds left in the second quarter and went to halftime up 14-0.
nst the Longhorns in a 35-7 loss.
Jon Goering/KANSAN
IT WAS OVER WHEN..
Jordan Shipley took the fake field goal snap and soared over the entire line of scrimmage. Shipley gained six yards and a first down and kept all of the momentum with the Longhorns, who went up 21-0 later on the drive.
Colt McCoy. If not for Graham Harrell's last second heroics in Lubbock two weeks ago, McCoy would be the Heisman front-runner and his efficient performance on Saturday would have kept him on top. As it stands, McCoy's 338 total yards and three touchdowns will keep him in the running.
GAME BALL GOES TO...
Angus Quigley, Asked to shoulder the rushing load after Jake Sharp exited with an injury, Quigley mustered just 28 yards and fumbled twice. Both turn-overs came in Kansas territory and the second one led to Texas' final touchdown.
GAME TO FORGET...
OUOTABLE
QUARTERBACK TODD Reesing on Dezmon Briscoe's circus catch on fourth down, which set up Kansas' only touchdown:
"I didn't get to see a lot of him was on my back afterward. From what I did see that's Briscoe making plays. The guy's shown week in and week out that he's a playmaker. He's one of the best in the Big 12, if not the nation. He knows that he needs to make plays for this team because we rely on him. That catch just shows a little bit of what he can bring."
