in the return game, senior Trestan Ebner was named the Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week, the league office announced on Monday.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;background:white">As a running back and returner, Ebner finished with 272 all-purpose yards and four touchdowns in Baylor's 47-14 win over Kansas on Saturday. Two
of his touchdowns kickoff return with one going for 100 yards and the other for 83 yards. Ebner is the first player in the 25-year history of the Big 12 to score three different types of touchdowns in a game. Ebner is also the only FBS player in the last 25
seasons (since 1996) to score a rushing TD, a receiving TD and multiple return touchdowns in a game.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;background:white">His 272 all-purpose yards were the third-most in program history, as he became the first player in BU history with two return touchdowns in the same
game. Ebner was also the first Baylor player since 1996 to record a kickoff return TD and rushing TD in the same game and just the second Big 12 player to return two touchdowns in a game, and the first in a conference game.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;background:white">In addition, it was the first time a Baylor player recorded a return TD and a receiving TD since 2013. The two kickoff return touchdowns were the
first for Baylor since 2013 and his first kickoff return TD of the game went for 100 yards which tied the BU record for longest return for TD.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
