SAN ANTONIO—The quarterback who starred in the breathtaking Alamo Bowl that shattered the record books wasn't the Heisman Trophy winner -- it was Washington's Keith Price.

Upstaging Robert Griffin III on the biggest stage for Baylor's possibly NFL-bound star, Price accounted for a remarkable 477 total yards and seven touchdowns in a game that was so crazy, the sophomore's incredible performance still wasn't even enough to win Thursday night.

Washington (7-6) lost 67-56 in the highest-scoring regulation bowl game in history, letting a fourth-quarter lead slip away in the wildest shootout of this bowl season or any other in memory.

"I think we'll have a hard time this bowl season to see a quarterback play as well as he did," Washington coach Steve Sarkisian.

Price outplayed his Heisman counterpart, going 23 for 27 with 438 yards and four touchdowns. He also ran for another three scores.

Griffin wasn't dazzling in possibly his last college game for No. 15 Baylor but didn't need to be. If this was RG3's final showcase before jumping to the NFL, it was a gripping goodbye to watch.

One of the nation's most electrifying players was upstaged by an even more exciting nail-biter that shattered the previous record for points in regulation set in the 2001 GMAC Bowl.

"We went out in style!" Griffin shouted to his teammates. He paraded the Alamo Bowl trophy around the field before taking it to the front row of the stands and his mother, who's already been looking at her son's NFL draft prospects.

Griffin said he was still catching his breath after this one.

"I want Baylor nation to enjoy this," Griffin said. "It's not about me. I've got about two weeks. I'll enjoy this the next day, and then the next day, and then I'll make it."

The previous bowl record for a regulation game was 102 total points set in the 2001 GMAC Bowl between Marshall and East Carolina. That game went to double overtime and ended with a combined 125 points -- which still stands as the overall bowl record.

Baylor, which won its first bowl game since 1992, and Washington (7-6) also set a bowl record for total offense in a game with 1,397 yards.

"We just knew we needed to score. We needed to score fast, just to give our defense a boost," Price said.

Griffin had an unremarkable night, throwing just one touchdown pass and running for another. But Terrance Ganaway starred ably in his place, rushing for 200 yards and five touchdowns. His last was a 43-yard run with 2:28 left to seal Baylor's first 10-win season since 1980.
