Baylor celebrated Jake Spavital’s first anniversary as offensive coordinator with a bang. Baylor wide receiver Monaray Baldwin hauls in his first touchdown reception of the day after getting past Kansas safety Marvin Grant in the first quarter. Three thoughts from Baylor’s 45-17 win over Kansas Saturday afternoon at McLane Stadium. The Bears racked up more than 600 yards of total offense, their most against a Big 12 team since 2016, in a 45-17 win over Kansas Saturday afternoon to finish the season on a six-game winning streak. “I think Spav has got a really good scheme,” Baylor head coach Dave Aranda said. “I think our speed and our athleticism at receiver is as good as any anywhere. And you’ve got tight ends that can go the distance, too. That’s a matchup problem. “I credit our recruiters, I credit Spav, I credit our playmakers. They all have to do their part to get what you’re getting right now.” Offensive coordinator Jake Spavital’s (center) Baylor offense rolled up a season-high total of 603 yards on Saturday. Baylor operated at peak efficiency in the regular-season win over Kansas, scoring on seven of its 10 drives, including all four full drives in the second half. The win marked the 14th straight win for the Bears over the Jayhawks, and Baylor improved to 12-0 against Kansas in games played in Waco. Baylor wide receiver Josh Cameron leaps past Kansas cornerback Mello Dotson and Kansas safety O.J. Burroughs, left, in the first half. Baylor running back Bryson Washington motors past Kansas cornerback Jalen Todd in the second half. Washington topped 1,000 rushing yards on the season with his 192-yard performance on Saturday. In senior Monaray Baldwin (seven catches, 119 yards, two touchdowns) and junior Josh Cameron (eight catches, 102 yards, one touchdown), the Bears had two 100-plus yard receivers in a game for the first time since 2019. In freshman Bryson Washington (28 carries, 192 yards, two touchdowns) and sophomore Dawson Pendergrass (11 carries, 104 yards), Baylor had 100-plus yard rushers for the first time since 2021. Washington also broke the program record for rushing yards by a freshman while becoming the first freshman in program history to rush for more than 1,000 yards in a season. “It was a blessing, honestly,” Washington said. “I’m so grateful for the O-line, the coaching staff and the guys around me, these guys push me to be the best I can be.” Junior quarterback Sawyer Robertson threw for 310 yards and four touchdowns, his third game of the year with over 300 yards passing and his sixth with at least three touchdown passes. “I couldn’t be happier to be where I’m at now with the teammates that I’m with, with the coaches that I’m with,” Robertson said “It’s just such a cool moment and I’m going to enjoy it, just because it’s not (promised).” Baylor's turnaround is the most underrated in all of college football, and Dave Aranda and the Bears deserve applause for their resurrection from the dead. Defensively, sixth-year senior Matt Jones finished with six tackles to get to an even 100 on the season. He and sophomore Keaton Thomas are the first pair of Baylor linebackers to both have at least 100 tackles in a season since 2012. “It’s just so cool to see just the tenacity,” sophomore linebacker Kyler Jordan said. “He’s playing more beat-up than anybody even knows and he doesn’t even show it. He cares so much about the team, not much about himself. To see him succeed the way he has this season is really, really cool.” Coming off a three-win season a year ago, Baylor needed to show improvement this season for Aranda to get off the hot seat. The Bears started 2-4 after dropping a heartbreaking game at Colorado, seeing a comeback fall short at home against BYU and getting blown out at Iowa State. The mood was understandably dire. Everyone on the team knew what kind of potential they had, and Saturday’s finale was the exclamation point at the end of a memorable year.

To finish the game good and to finish the season we did, it’s super special.” Baylor didn’t get off to the best of starts defensively, getting called for a 15-yard personal foul on the opening kickoff and giving up back-to-back plays for double-digit yards. But the Jayhawks missed the 38-yard field goal. Baylor, which allowed just 15 sacks coming into Saturday, gave up two on its opening drive. Neal found the end zone on a 19-yard rush to get the Jayhawks on the board first with just over five minutes left in the first quarter when a flag for holding was picked up.

Devyn Bobby came down with an interception for the second game in a row, and two plays later, Robertson and Baldwin linked up on basically the same play call as the first touchdown.

Baylor continued to play bend-but-don’t-break defense and held Kansas to a field goal early in the second quarter before Robertson and Cameron linked up for a 14-yard score with six minutes left in the half. After completing his first 10 passes of the game, Robertson completed two of his final eight attempts in the first half. Robertson was sharp to start the second half, completing all three of his passes on a nine-play, 74-yard scoring drive to start the second half. His sixth-straight completion of the second half went for a 20-yard touchdown by Pendergrass. The Jayhawks tried to stop the momentum with a touchdown run by Lawrence Arnold with five minutes left in the third quarter, but Washington scored with a few seconds left in the third quarter and Isaiah Hankins hit a 40-yard field goal for Baylor with 10 minutes left to seal the win. Baylor running back Dawson Pendergrass cruises into the end zone past Kansas safety Marvin Grant and Kansas cornerback Mello Dotson, right, in the third quarter. “I’m proud of that team in the locker room there, just the grit that they showed,” Aranda said. “I told them to go through the season that we did and to continue to believe and to not let the outside get on the inside. Those things are just really hard.” The Bears finish the season at 9-4 overall and 6-3 in Big 12 play and will wait to find out their bowl fate on Dec. 8. “I’d like to go somewhere tropical,” senior defensive lineman Treven Ma’ae said. “They say, the more wins you have, the warmer the (bowl game locations are). So, I’d like that. I’m just blessed and grateful to be a part of this.” Baylor running back Bryson Washington (30) celebrates a third-quarter touchdown with teammate Matthew Klopfenstein (right).

The encounter between Penny, a white Marine veteran, and Neely, a homeless Black man with mental health and drug problems, has been drawn into U.S. political divides over race, public safety and cities’ ability to handle mental illness and social ills. Penny, 26, has pleaded not guilty. Many criminal defendants don't take the stand, and juries are routinely instructed that they cannot hold defendants' silence — a constitutional right — against them. One of Penny’s lawyers, Daniel Kenniff, noted after court that jurors did hear from Penny, in the form of his recorded statements to police minutes and hours after he put Neely in a chokehold. “Virtually everything he said then is consistent with credible testimony of his fellow passengers," Kenniff said. Penny told police that he wrapped his arm around Neely's neck, took him to the floor and “put him out” because he was angrily throwing things and making threatening comments. Penny said on police video that he hadn't wanted to injure Neely but rather to keep him from hurting anyone else. A number of other passengers testified that they were scared of Neely and relieved that Penny grabbed hold of him. A man who later stepped in and held down Neely's arms, however, told jurors that he urged Penny to let go but that the veteran kept choking Neely for a time. Prosecutors say Penny meant to protect people but recklessly used too much force, overlooking Neely's humanity and making no effort to spare his life. City medical examiners ruled that the chokehold killed Neely. A pathologist hired by Penny's defense disputed that finding . Prosecutors, defense lawyers and the judge are set to meet Monday to hash out jury instructions.

NEW HOPE, Pa. (AP) — Dayle Haddon, an actor, activist and trailblazing former “Sports Illustrated” model who pushed back against age discrimination by reentering the industry as a widow, has died in a Pennsylvania home from what authorities believe was carbon monoxide poisoning. Authorities in Bucks County found Haddon, 76, dead in a second-floor bedroom Friday morning after emergency dispatchers were notified about a person unconscious at the Solebury Township home. A 76-year-old man police later identified as Walter J. Blucas of Erie was hospitalized in critical condition. Responders detected a high level of carbon monoxide in the property and township police said Saturday that investigators determined that “a faulty flue and exhaust pipe on a gas heating system caused the carbon monoxide leak.” Two medics were taken to a hospital for carbon monoxide exposure and a police officer was treated at the scene. As a model, Haddon appeared on the covers of Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Elle and Esquire in the 1970s and 1980s, as well as the 1973 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. She also appeared in about two dozen films from the 1970s to 1990s, according to IMDb.com , including 1994’s “Bullets Over Broadway,” starring John Cusack. Haddon left modeling after giving birth to her daughter, Ryan, in the mid-1970s, but then had to reenter the workforce after her husband's 1991 death. This time she found the modeling industry far less friendly: “They said to me, ‘At 38, you’re not viable,’” Haddon told The New York Times in 2003. Working a menial job at an advertising agency, Haddon began reaching out to cosmetic companies, telling them there was a growing market to sell beauty products to aging baby boomers. She eventually landed a contract with Clairol, followed by Estée Lauder and then L’Oreal, for which she promoted the company's anti-aging products for more than a decade. She also hosted beauty segments for CBS’s “The Early Show.” "I kept modeling, but in a different way," she told The Times, “I became a spokesperson for my age.” In 2008, Haddon founded WomenOne, an organization aimed at advancing educational opportunities for girls and women in marginalized communities, including Rwanda, Haiti and Jordan.' Haddon was born in Toronto and began modeling as a teenager to pay for ballet classes — she began her career with the Canadian ballet company Les Grands Ballet Canadiens, according to her website . Haddon's daughter, Ryan, said in a social media post that her mother was “everyone’s greatest champion. An inspiration to many.” “A pure heart. A rich inner life. Touching so many lives. A life well lived. Rest in Light, Mom,” she said.( MENAFN - Newsfile Corp) Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 30, 2024) - On FOX Business News broadcast on Sunday, Dec 1, 2024 - BTV Business Television interviews emerging companies in the markets including: Cannot view this video?
