Blake Shapen completed 17 of 20 passes for 214 yards with two long touchdowns and had a nifty dive into the end zone for another score on the final play of the first half as the Bears beat FCS team Albany 69-10 in their season opener Saturday night.
The reigning Big 12 champion Bears have a six-game winning streak, matching fourth-ranked Clemson for the longest active among FBS teams. The Tigers open their season Monday night against Georgia Tech.Shapen swept to the right sideline and dived
“One of the things that I appreciate about Blake is that he is very understated, and not a lot of drama with him,” coach Dave Aranda said. “Probably the most drama is what’s on his head with his mohawk and all that. Outside of that, you know, there’s not a whole lot happening, which is very just Joe Cool with all of it.”
“Being able to know that I’m going to be the guy, and know that I’m going to be the one playing, has helped a lot,” Shapen said. “I thought we found a quarterback that can make plays with both his feet and his arm,” Albany coach Greg Gattuso said.Albany: The Great Danes are 3-13 overall since making the FCS playoffs during the 2019 season. They were 2-9 last fall, after going 1-3 in a spring season when the 2020 fall season was pushed back because of the pandemic.
