Russell Athletic Bowl: Briles, Baylor committed to run game in way nobody could have imagined
Posted Dec 30, 2015

Against North Carolina in the Russell Athletic Bowl, Baylor committed to the run in a way that nobody (especially UNC defensive coordinator Gene Chizik) could have imagined. Everybody but big LaQuan McGowan took a snap behind center, it seemed, and five players combined to rush 82 times for 651 yards.
