Richard Reese ran for a career-high 186 yards and two touchdowns as Baylor held on to defeat Kansas 35-23 Saturday in Waco, Texas. Baylor, who defeated Kansas for the 13th straight time, snapped a two-game losing streak.

Kansas outscored Baylor 20-0 during the second half to cut the deficit to 28-23, but the Jayhawks couldn't complete the comeback.

Baylor out gained Kansas 273-56 on the ground. Quarterback Blake Shapen was 17-of-26 for 164 yards and a touchdown, but he also threw two interceptions.

Jason Bean was 16-of-27 for 232 yards with a touchdown for Kansas.

Kansas (5-3, 2-3 Big 12) lost its third straight game and still needs one more victory to reach bowl eligibility for the first time since 2008.

Baylor (4-3, 2-2 Big 12) jumped out quickly. Following a three-and-out on KU's opening drive and a shanked punt, Baylor drove 41 yards for the first score. Shapen found Monaray Baldwin in the flat and he raced untouched into the end zone.

Kansas fumbled on its next play and Baylor capitalized with a two-play, 25-yard drive, capped by a Richard Reese 14-yard run.

Kansas got on the board with a 30-yard Jacob Borcila field goal.

Kyron Drones scored from the 4-yard line with Baylor's third touchdown early in the second quarter, extending the lead to 21-3. After a Kansas pooch-punt that stopped inside the 1-yard line midway through the quarter, Baylor went on a 15-play, 99-yard touchdown drive that ended with 42 seconds left in the half.

Baylor appeared to be ready to add to the lead to open the second half when the momentum switched dramatically. Shapen was sacked by Jereme Robinson, who stripped the ball, picked it up and ran 49 yards to the Baylor 9-yard line. Kansas punched it in with a 2-yard Devin Neal run.

Kansas forced Baylor's first punt then marched 95 yards in 11 plays to cut the deficit to 28-16. The two-point conversion failed. Bean found Quentin Skinner on a 24-yard touchdown.

Kansas held the Bears on fourth-and-1 at the KU 6-yard line, then capped a 94-yard drive with a 4-yard scamper by Bean.
