  Baylor had played poorly on the road all season, and was locked in another tight tussle with red-hot Kansas State, when quarterback Gerry Bohanon grabbed his right hamstring heading out of bounds in the first half Saturday night. Nothing to worry about. Just call on a redshirt freshman who'd thrown three career passes. Blake Shapen completed 16 of 21 passes for 137 yards to steady the Bears on offense, and their defense smothered Kansas State, helping secure a 20-10 victory that kept their Big 12 title hopes alive. "Every situation Blake's been put in going back to the spring, fall, throughout our practices when he rotates through - he's risen to every occasion," Baylor coach Dave Aranda said. "There's some gunslinger in him. I think you saw that." Shapen got some help from Trestan Ebner, who ran for 86 yards and a touchdown, and Tyquan Thornton, who had five catches for 75 yards, as the Bears (9-2, 6-2 Big 12) won their fourth straight over Kansas State. "We knew this was going to be a really tough test coming into Manhattan, a big crowd, on the road, and obviously we've had some trouble in the past on the road," Baylor wide receiver Drew Estrada said. "All week we knew it would be a battle." That said, the Bears got plenty of gifts. The Wildcats (7-4, 4-4) muffed a punt that led to the game's first points, and Chris Tennant missed a 39-yard field goal that would have made it a one-possession game with 10 minutes to go. - Baylor/AP College Football
