Offensive Notes
• Redshirt sophomore quarterback Brendan Sorsby completed 25 of his 36 passes for
279 yards and a touchdown.
• He rushed for 48 yards in the second consecutive game and had an impressive 12-
yard rushing TD in the fourth quarter. His career-high for rushing yards was 53 vs.
Illinois last season. It was Sorsby’s seventh rushing touchdown of the season.
• Senior running back Corey Kiner led UC in rushing on Saturday, totaling 91 yards on
25 carries. That brings his career total to 2,196, which is 12th in program history.
• Kiner’s 1-yard touchdown rush on UC’s first drive of the game capped a 14-play
scoring drive, the longest TD drive of the year.
• Redshirt junior running back Evan Pryor took an 80-yard pass from Sorsby all the
way for a touchdown, the longest reception of his career and his fourth touchdown
of the year of at least 50 yards. His other three long scores have all been rushing
TDs

It was the second-longest catch by a Big 12 player this season, trailing only TCU’s
Eric McAlister, who had an 84-yard catch vs. Texas Tech on Oct. 26.
• Pryor’s 80-yard touchdown catch was the longest by a Bearcat since Tyler Scott’s
81-yard touchdown catch from Desmond Ridder vs. Miami (Ohio) in 2021.
• Pryor now has three scrimmage plays of 60-plus yards this season, tied with UCF’s
RJ Harvey for most in the Big 12. Three of his long touchdowns have come on the
first offensive play of a drive, and he boasts four of UC’s six longest plays of the
season.
• Pryor’s 100-yard receiving game marks the fifth by a Bearcat over the century mark.
Xzavier Henderson has three, and fellow running back Manny Covey had 100 at
Texas Tech.
