LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Jake Heaps threw for 257 yards and four touchdowns Saturday, leading the blue team made up mostly of offensive starters to a 34-7 victory over the white in Kansas’ spring game.
Heaps sat out last season after transferring from BYU, but didn’t appear to have any rust to knock off. He completed 10 straight passes in the first half, showing the kind of zip that made him one of the nation’s top quarterbacks coming out of high school.
He found a favorite target in Justin McCay, a transfer from Oklahoma who also sat out last year. McCay caught eight passes for 99 yards and a touchdown.
Tony Pierson ran for 32 yards and also caught five passes for 62 yards and a touchdown, and James Sims had 74 yards rushing.
