Baylor's 410-pound tight end LaQuan McGowan scored his first touchdown of the season Saturday against Kansas.

It seemed the entire college football world was waiting for the moment Baylor's 410-pound offensive lineman-turned-tight-end would finally get the chance to catch his first pass since bursting onto the scene with a rumbling, bumbling touchdown in last year's Cotton Bowl.

That opportunity for LaQuan McGowan came in Baylor's 66-7 pasting of Kansas last Saturday. Early in the second quarter, McGowan lined up in the backfield on first-and-10 from the Kansas 18-yard line.
