Jake Sharp adds to the score with a four-yard touchdown carry with 1:30 left to play in the half. The drive took only four plays and covered 30 yards. Reesing appears to be passing the ball better as conditions continue to improve.
Kansas' Chris Harris intercepts a pass and after a 15-yard illegal blocking call and the Jayhawks will start their next drive from the 17-yard-line. On third down and eight, Reesing hands off Brandon McAnderson who skirts the Baylor defense with a 15-yard touchdown run.
