Kansas redshirt freshman running back Brandon Bourbon and true freshman running back Anthony Pierson scored two touchdowns and one touchdown respectively during Saturday's scrimmage. Pierson's came from outside the red zone and he also had the two longest runs of the day.

Kansas continues to show how talented - and young - it is at tailback. Bourbon and Pierson aren't even slated to be in the top two in the depth chart. Those spots are currently held by James Sims, who received limited carries in the scrimmage, and Darrian Miller, who was held out as a precaution.
