Brinks EVP James K. Parks sells $386,040 in stockBaylor celebrated Jake Spavital’s first anniversary as offensive coordinator with a bang. Baylor wide receiver Monaray Baldwin hauls in his first touchdown reception of the day after getting past Kansas safety Marvin Grant in the first quarter. Three thoughts from Baylor’s 45-17 win over Kansas Saturday afternoon at McLane Stadium. The Bears racked up more than 600 yards of total offense, their most against a Big 12 team since 2016, in a 45-17 win over Kansas Saturday afternoon to finish the season on a six-game winning streak. “I think Spav has got a really good scheme,” Baylor head coach Dave Aranda said. “I think our speed and our athleticism at receiver is as good as any anywhere. And you’ve got tight ends that can go the distance, too. That’s a matchup problem. “I credit our recruiters, I credit Spav, I credit our playmakers. They all have to do their part to get what you’re getting right now.” Offensive coordinator Jake Spavital’s (center) Baylor offense rolled up a season-high total of 603 yards on Saturday. Baylor operated at peak efficiency in the regular-season win over Kansas, scoring on seven of its 10 drives, including all four full drives in the second half. The win marked the 14th straight win for the Bears over the Jayhawks, and Baylor improved to 12-0 against Kansas in games played in Waco. Baylor wide receiver Josh Cameron leaps past Kansas cornerback Mello Dotson and Kansas safety O.J. Burroughs, left, in the first half. Baylor running back Bryson Washington motors past Kansas cornerback Jalen Todd in the second half. Washington topped 1,000 rushing yards on the season with his 192-yard performance on Saturday. In senior Monaray Baldwin (seven catches, 119 yards, two touchdowns) and junior Josh Cameron (eight catches, 102 yards, one touchdown), the Bears had two 100-plus yard receivers in a game for the first time since 2019. In freshman Bryson Washington (28 carries, 192 yards, two touchdowns) and sophomore Dawson Pendergrass (11 carries, 104 yards), Baylor had 100-plus yard rushers for the first time since 2021. Washington also broke the program record for rushing yards by a freshman while becoming the first freshman in program history to rush for more than 1,000 yards in a season. “It was a blessing, honestly,” Washington said. “I’m so grateful for the O-line, the coaching staff and the guys around me, these guys push me to be the best I can be.” Junior quarterback Sawyer Robertson threw for 310 yards and four touchdowns, his third game of the year with over 300 yards passing and his sixth with at least three touchdown passes. “I couldn’t be happier to be where I’m at now with the teammates that I’m with, with the coaches that I’m with,” Robertson said “It’s just such a cool moment and I’m going to enjoy it, just because it’s not (promised).” Baylor's turnaround is the most underrated in all of college football, and Dave Aranda and the Bears deserve applause for their resurrection from the dead. Defensively, sixth-year senior Matt Jones finished with six tackles to get to an even 100 on the season. He and sophomore Keaton Thomas are the first pair of Baylor linebackers to both have at least 100 tackles in a season since 2012. “It’s just so cool to see just the tenacity,” sophomore linebacker Kyler Jordan said. “He’s playing more beat-up than anybody even knows and he doesn’t even show it. He cares so much about the team, not much about himself. To see him succeed the way he has this season is really, really cool.” Coming off a three-win season a year ago, Baylor needed to show improvement this season for Aranda to get off the hot seat. The Bears started 2-4 after dropping a heartbreaking game at Colorado, seeing a comeback fall short at home against BYU and getting blown out at Iowa State. The mood was understandably dire. Everyone on the team knew what kind of potential they had, and Saturday’s finale was the exclamation point at the end of a memorable year. Baylor Football: Highlights vs. Kansas | November 30, 2024 // via BaylorAthletics on YouTube “Everything the seniors have been through, from the Big 12 championship to (finishing) 3-9 to the 2-4 start to this season, I’m so happy for all of them,” Robertson said. “All of them have played an important part on this team. To finish the game good and to finish the season we did, it’s super special.” Baylor didn’t get off to the best of starts defensively, getting called for a 15-yard personal foul on the opening kickoff and giving up back-to-back plays for double-digit yards. But the Jayhawks missed the 38-yard field goal. Baylor, which allowed just 15 sacks coming into Saturday, gave up two on its opening drive. Neal found the end zone on a 19-yard rush to get the Jayhawks on the board first with just over five minutes left in the first quarter when a flag for holding was picked up. Baylor quarterback Sawyer Robertson celebrates with running back Dawson Pendergrass after his third-quarter touchdown against Kansas. Baylor wide receiver Monaray Baldwin pulls in the Bears' first touchdown of the game over Kansas safety Marvin Grant to tie the score at 7. The Bears answered right back with a six-play, 75-yard drive that saw Robertson throw a perfect pass to Baldwin, who made an over-the-shoulder catch for a 36-yard touchdown to tie the game. Devyn Bobby came down with an interception for the second game in a row, and two plays later, Robertson and Baldwin linked up on basically the same play call as the first touchdown. Baylor safety Devyn Bobby, left, pulls down an interception while teammate safety Corey Gordon Jr. reacts to the play in the first half. Baylor continued to play bend-but-don’t-break defense and held Kansas to a field goal early in the second quarter before Robertson and Cameron linked up for a 14-yard score with six minutes left in the half. After completing his first 10 passes of the game, Robertson completed two of his final eight attempts in the first half. Robertson was sharp to start the second half, completing all three of his passes on a nine-play, 74-yard scoring drive to start the second half. His sixth-straight completion of the second half went for a 20-yard touchdown by Pendergrass. The Jayhawks tried to stop the momentum with a touchdown run by Lawrence Arnold with five minutes left in the third quarter, but Washington scored with a few seconds left in the third quarter and Isaiah Hankins hit a 40-yard field goal for Baylor with 10 minutes left to seal the win. Baylor running back Dawson Pendergrass cruises into the end zone past Kansas safety Marvin Grant and Kansas cornerback Mello Dotson, right, in the third quarter. “I’m proud of that team in the locker room there, just the grit that they showed,” Aranda said. “I told them to go through the season that we did and to continue to believe and to not let the outside get on the inside. Those things are just really hard.” The Bears finish the season at 9-4 overall and 6-3 in Big 12 play and will wait to find out their bowl fate on Dec. 8. “I’d like to go somewhere tropical,” senior defensive lineman Treven Ma’ae said. “They say, the more wins you have, the warmer the (bowl game locations are). So, I’d like that. I’m just blessed and grateful to be a part of this.” Baylor running back Bryson Washington (30) celebrates a third-quarter touchdown with teammate Matthew Klopfenstein (right).

Rams claim CB Emmanuel Forbes off waivers from Washington

GRAND FORKS — Robert Morris coach Derek Schooley isn't particularly excited to see Carter Wilkie again this weekend. "I had a couple of goals and good games against them," said Wilkie, a UND senior center. ADVERTISEMENT That's an understatement. Wilkie, a junior at RIT last season, played six games against the Colonials. He scored six goals and tallied 12 points. That means 37.5 percent of his goals and 29.3 percent of his points last season came against Robert Morris. Wilkie, who transferred to UND in the offseason for his final year of college eligibility, will get one more shot at the Colonials. UND and Robert Morris will play in a two-game nonconference series at 7:07 p.m. Friday and 6:07 p.m. Saturday in Ralph Engelstad Arena. "They're a hard-working team," Wilkie said. "They definitely know how to play simple and fast. They move the puck north really well. Their team has obviously had a lot of changeover. They had a lot of fifth years (last year). I don't know exactly what they have brought in this year, but they're pretty well-coached and I'm expecting a hard match." Wilkie has been a consistent two-way player for UND but his offense has dried up recently. He enters this weekend on a six-game point drought and a nine-game goal drought. His line with Mac Swanson and Ben Strinden had strong analytics last weekend against the University of Denver. ADVERTISEMENT "I just want to see us play a dominant game and a full 60 minutes," Wilkie said. "We've had a lot of consistent stretches, it's just losing it after a couple moments. It's costing us goals. I really want to see 60 minutes out of our group and piece together two solid games, get back on the same page and get our season rolling, especially in the wins column." Wilkie said he expects to get Robert Morris' best. "Playing in Atlantic Hockey and coming to games like this and in an atmosphere like The Ralph, they're obviously going to be excited and tuned in to play their best game," Wilkie said. "We've got to be ready." Wilkie said a key is playing simple against the Colonials and not trying to be too fancy. "Hopefully, I can keep the lasting memory of them not wanting to see me anymore," Wilkie said. Injured players progressing UND is slowly progressing on the injury front. Defenseman Tanner Komzak is expected to be available this weekend. ADVERTISEMENT Komzak was cleared for practice Thursday last week. He dressed for Saturday's series finale but didn't play any shifts. "That was more about if something went wrong or if someone got hurt, he could be put into play," UND coach Brad Berry said. "It was probably unfair to him to play him, because he only had one practice. He's been out two or three weeks. "(Now), he's had a full week of practice." Berry said freshman defenseman Andrew Strathmann, who was injured Nov. 1 at Cornell, is "way ahead of expected." Strathmann has returned to practice. "When he got diagnosed coming out of Cornell, it looked like it was maybe longterm with a surgery included," Berry said. "The surgery didn't take place. He's really responded from therapy. He's in some heavy contact drills, some we're keeping him out of." Strathmann won't play against Robert Morris, but he could play before Christmas break. UND plays a home-and-home with Bemidji State next week, then travels to Miami before hosting St. Cloud State. ADVERTISEMENT Forward Cody Croal practiced for the first time Thursday. He did not take contact. Defenseman Bennett Zmolek still is not practicing. UND expects to know more on his timeline next week. He's currently listed as "out indefinitely." Goalie Kaleb Johnson also is "out indefinitely." Center Cameron Berg also will miss this weekend's series. The Fighting Hawks have yet to win this season without Berg in the lineup (5-2 with him, 0-4 without him). Will Dane Montgomery stay on defense? Junior forward Dane Montgomery has been moved to defense to fill in for the injured blue liners. He had points in his first four full games on defense. Once UND starts to regain health on the blue line, will UND leave him there? "It's a great question," Berry said. "As of now, yes. He's done a lot to help out or D-corps back there, not only defensively but offensively. Once we get guys back, we'll make that decision. That depends what our forward group looks like here, too. ADVERTISEMENT "As of now, he will be (on defense). At the end of the day, we'll keep looking forward. But I'll tell you what — what a positive, positive impact he's had on our group." Robert Morris at No. 12 UND When: 7:07 p.m. Friday, 6:07 p.m. Saturday. Where: Ralph Engelstad Arena. TV: Midco Sports (GF Ch. 27/622 HD). Radio: The Fox (96.1 FM). Stream: NCHChockey.com.

By ROB GILLIES, Associated Press TORONTO (AP) — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told Donald Trump that Americans would also suffer if the president-elect follows through on a plan to impose sweeping tariffs on Canadian products , a Canadian minister who attended their recent dinner said Monday. Trump threatened to impose tariffs on products from Canada and Mexico if they don’t stop what he called the flow of drugs and migrants across their borders with the United States. He said on social media last week that he would impose a 25% tax on all products entering the U.S. from Canada and Mexico as one of his first executive orders. Canadian Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc, whose responsibilities include border security, attended a dinner with Trump and Trudeau at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club on Friday. Trudeau requested the meeting in a bid to avoid the tariffs by convincing Trump that the northern border is nothing like the U.S. southern border with Mexico . “The prime minister of course spoke about the importance of protecting the Canadian economy and Canadian workers from tariffs, but we also discussed with our American friends the negative impact that those tariffs could have on their economy, on affordability in the United States as well,” LeBlanc said in Parliament. If Trump makes good on his threat to slap 25% tariffs on everything imported from Mexico and Canada, the price increases that could follow will collide with his campaign promise to give American families a break from inflation. Economists say companies would have little choice but to pass along the added costs, dramatically raising prices for food, clothing, automobiles, alcohol and other goods. The Produce Distributors Association, a Washington trade group, said last week that tariffs will raise prices for fresh fruit and vegetables and hurt U.S. farmers when the countries retaliate. Canada is already examining possible retaliatory tariffs on certain items from the U.S. should Trump follow through on the threat. After his dinner with Trump, Trudeau returned home without assurances the president-elect will back away from threatened tariffs on all products from the major American trading partner. Trump called the talks “productive” but signaled no retreat from a pledge that Canada says unfairly lumps it in with Mexico over the flow of drugs and migrants into the United States. “The idea that we came back empty handed is completely false,” LeBlanc said. “We had a very productive discussion with Mr. Trump and his future Cabinet secretaries. ... The commitment from Mr. Trump to continue to work with us was far from empty handed.” Joining Trump and Trudeau at dinner were Howard Lutnick, Trump’s nominee for commerce secretary, North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, Trump’s pick to lead the Interior Department, and Mike Waltz, Trump’s choice to be his national security adviser. Canada’s ambassador to the U.S., Kirsten Hillman, told The Associated Press on Sunday that “the message that our border is so vastly different than the Mexican border was really understood.” Hillman, who sat at an adjacent table to Trudeau and Trump, said Canada is not the problem when it comes to drugs and migrants. On Monday, Mexico’s president rejected those comments. “Mexico must be respected, especially by its trading partners,” President Claudia Sheinbaum said. She said Canada had its own problems with fentanyl consumption and “could only wish they had the cultural riches Mexico has.” Flows of migrants and seizures of drugs at the two countries’ border are vastly different. U.S. customs agents seized 43 pounds of fentanyl at the Canadian border during the last fiscal year, compared with 21,100 pounds at the Mexican border. Most of the fentanyl reaching the U.S. — where it causes about 70,000 overdose deaths annually — is made by Mexican drug cartels using precursor chemicals smuggled from Asia. On immigration, the U.S. Border Patrol reported 1.53 million encounters with migrants at the southwest border with Mexico between October 2023 and September 2024. That compares to 23,721 encounters at the Canadian border during that time. Canada is the top export destination for 36 U.S. states. Nearly $3.6 billion Canadian (US$2.7 billion) worth of goods and services cross the border each day. About 60% of U.S. crude oil imports are from Canada, and 85% of U.S. electricity imports as well. Canada is also the largest foreign supplier of steel, aluminum and uranium to the U.S. and has 34 critical minerals and metals that the Pentagon is eager for and investing for national security.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Rams have claimed cornerback Emmanuel Forbes off waivers from Washington. The Rams (6-6) announced the move Monday. They waived undrafted rookie defensive back Charles Woods to make room on the roster. Forbes was the 16th overall draft pick in 2023, but the Commanders released him Saturday in yet another latest flop for their first-round selections under former coach Ron Rivera. Forbes started 10 games as a rookie, but the Mississippi State product got benched during the season — and his playing time dwindled to almost nothing under new coach Dan Quinn this season. Forbes was considered undersized to be an elite NFL defensive back before Washington used a first-round pick on him, and his play did little to discourage that perception. But the Rams are taking a flier on Forbes to help their mediocre pass defense. Darious Williams, a member of the Rams' Super Bowl championship team who returned to Los Angeles this season as a free agent, has been their best cover corner, but he struggled in Sunday's victory over New Orleans. Third-year pro Cobie Durant has started all 12 games this season with one interception. Los Angeles already traded Tre'Davious White, its other major offseason signing at cornerback, after the former Pro Bowler failed to perform. The Rams shipped White to Baltimore for a seventh-round pick swap last month. Woods has played in nine games for the Rams, appearing mostly on special teams. Los Angeles hosts Buffalo on Sunday. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/NFL The Associated Press
Tech Turmoil: What’s Behind the Market Dip for This Semiconductor Player?Coming off a highly successful West Coast road trip, the Buffalo Sabres return to home ice on Wednesday to face the Minnesota Wild, when they will likely welcome back their leading goal-scorer. Tage Thompson told reporters after practice Tuesday that he would be "ready to go" against the second-place team in the Central Division. The 27-year-old center, who scored 47 goals and 94 points two seasons ago, has not played since Nov. 11 due to a lower-body injury. Despite missing five games, his 11 goals still lead the team, and he ranks third in points with 18. Buffalo swept its California road trip, beating Los Angeles, Anaheim and San Jose in four days. The Sabres were off Sunday and Monday before returning to the ice Tuesday morning. The winning streak has Lindy Ruff's team tied for eighth place in the Eastern Conference. However, with three-quarters of the season remaining, Ruff -- who was in his first stint as the Sabres' coach when the team last made the playoffs in 2011 -- knows his team still needs to do more against tough competition. It did not help matters that Tuesday's practice could have started better, Ruff said. "You come in off a road trip, and you're hoping that the team can be ready to exceed the intensity that we were able to bring on the trip," Ruff said. "It's the only way to get better." One area in which Ruff, whom the Sabres rehired in April, wants to see improvement is staying out of the penalty box. Out west, Buffalo gave opponents 12 power-play opportunities while only getting seven. Minnesota comes to Buffalo after falling at home 4-1 against Central Division leaders Winnipeg on Monday. It was the team's second straight defeat following a shootout loss to Calgary on Saturday. Monday's loss was not for a lack of effort. The Wild generated a season-high 44 shots on goal, with half of those coming in the first period. The 22 shots were the second-most of any team in one period this season and were the most in a period for the Wild in nearly seven years. Wild coach John Hynes felt his team played well but just could not get much past Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck, a two-time Vezina Trophy winner. "There's some things that we can grow from the game, but we got a lot of hockey this week too," Hynes told reporters after Monday's loss. "So, we got to put this one behind us, grab what we can take out of it, and then we got to make sure that we're refreshed again (Tuesday) and we're ready to go against Buffalo." Despite the mini losing streak, Minnesota's 30 points in 21 games is tied with the 2013-14 squad for the best start in franchise history. Left winger Kirill Kaprizov leads the Wild in both goals (13) and assists (21). His 34 total points entering Tuesday are tied for third in the NHL with Vegas' Jack Eichel and a point back from co-leaders Martin Necas of Carolina and Nathan MacKinnon of Colorado. Minnesota could be without defensive center Jakub Lauko, who left Monday's game early with a lower-body injury. Hynes did not have an update on his status after the Jets game. --Field Level Media
