Baylor’s LaQuan McGowan was a preseason favorite for SB Nation’s distinguished Piesman Trophy, as any good 400-pound tight end should be. And after a quiet start to the 2015 season, he sure made some noise against Kansas.
Baylor’s LaQuan McGowan rips through Kansas’ defense like a 400-pound gust of wind
The big man has MOVES.
The pyrotechnically inclined Bears actually lined McGowan up as a fullback, so he began the play in about as much of a crouch as he can realistically muster, then, er, “snuck” through the line to get open.
But the truly incredible part of the play is McGowan actually shaking a man in the open field.
That's Kansas safety Michael Glatczak who tried (and miserably failed) to cut down McGowan. He's listed at 5'10 and 173 pounds, so the 6'7, 410-pound McGowan's only got nine inches and more than Glatczak's weight on him.
He explained the play well:
