Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Quarterback Patrick Mahomes led the Chiefs to a pair of touchdowns in the fourth quarter at Denver, proving that he can handle a bit of adversity in the comeback win. Now comes another test in Jacksonville and its stingy defense, and Mahomes could be without one of his top playmakers in Sammy Watkins.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Perhaps the biggest question for Iowa’s defense heading into October was about its limited use of sophomore pass-rushing star A.J. Epenesa. The truth is that the Hawkeyes have enough talent to afford keeping Epenesa on the bench until they need him. Iowa enters its upcoming game against Minnesota ranked fifth in the country in scoring defense at 13 points a game and third nationally in yards allowed with 260.5 per game.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Another attempt by the National Football League to stop a legal showdown over the move of the Rams from St. Louis to Los Angeles has been turned away. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that a Missouri appeals court issued a ruling Tuesday that allows a lawsuit to proceed. The 2017 lawsuit alleges that the Rams’ departure violated a league guideline that was established after the Raiders moved from Oakland to Los Angeles.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — The son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Kurt Warner has earned a starting job at wide receiver after walking on to Nebraska last year. Kade Warner caught two passes in the loss to Purdue last week and is listed No. 1 on the depth chart for the game at No. 16 Wisconsin on Saturday night. Kade said his next goal is to play well enough that fans know him as Kade Warner and not just as Kurt Warner’s son.

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State is struggling a year after a breakout season. The Cyclones are just 1-3 so far and have lost both of their Big 12 games. One of the problems is that coach Matt Campbell has not yet turned his offensive line into a strength. Iowa State plays at No. 25 Oklahoma State this weekend.

IOWA CITY, Iowa — The University of Iowa baseball team released the details of its 54-game 2019 schedule, it was announced Monday by head coach Rick Heller.

Below is a rundown of the Hawkeyes’ 2019 schedule:

–          Twenty-six of Iowa’s 54 games will be played at Duane Banks Field.  The Hawkeyes are 72-20 (.760) at home since the start of the 2015 season.  The home opener is set for March 6 against a TBA opponent.

–          Iowa will play 12 games against four NCAA Tournament teams and all 12 games will be on the road.  The Hawkeyes will travel for three-game series at Oklahoma State, Indiana, Purdue, and Ohio State.

–          The Hawkeyes will host Big Ten series against Illinois, Rutgers, Nebraska, and Michigan State.

–          Iowa travels for Big Ten series against Indiana, Purdue, Ohio State, and Maryland.

–          The Hawkeyes don’t play Michigan, Minnesota, Northwestern, or Penn State during the regular season, but Iowa will play a nonconference game against Northwestern at Impact Field in Rosemont, Illinois, on May 1.

–          Iowa will open the season at the Diamond 9 Sunshine State Classic Series in Kissimmee, Florida, for a second straight season before traveling to Honolulu, Hawaii, for a four-game series at Hawaii.

–          The Hawkeyes will also play nonconference series at Evansville, while hosting Cal State Northridge and UC Irvine at Banks Field.

–          The 2019 Big Ten Tournament will be held at T.D. Ameritrade Park in Omaha, Nebraska, from May 22-26 for a second straight season.  The Hawkeyes have advanced to the postseason five straight seasons — a school record.

The Hawkeyes will host Kirkwood Community College in their final fall exhibition on Friday at 5 p.m. (CT) at Duane Banks Field.  The Black & Gold World Series will be contested from Oct. 10-12.

Complete Schedule

AMES, Iowa – The Iowa State Athletics Department announced today the addition of two schools for its future football schedule in Bowling Green and Tulane.

Iowa State has agreed to terms on a home-and-home series for both teams.

Iowa State will play host to Bowling Green in Ames in 2026 and travel to Bowling Green in 2027. The Iowa State-Tulane series will begin in 2028 in Ames, followed by a trip to New Orleans in 2029.

“The series with Bowling Green allows our program to continue to make inroads in Ohio where Coach Campbell and his staff have strategic recruiting ties,” Iowa State Athletics Director Jamie Pollard said. “We are also very excited for our fans to have an opportunity to travel with us on the road to New Orleans when we play Tulane in 2029.”

Iowa State is 2-0 all-time vs. Bowling Green. The Cyclones defeated the Falcons on the road in 1977 (35-2) and at home in 1979 (38-10).

The Cyclones own a 3-1 series lead vs. the Green Wave, winning the last game in the series at home in 1992 (38-14).

The Iowa State-West Virginia football game on October 13th has been set for a 6:00pm kickoff. The home game for the Cyclones at Jack Trice Stadium will be televised by FS1.

DENVER (AP) — Patrick Mahomes is athletic, agile — and ambidextrous, apparently.

Thanks in part to a nifty left-handed throw as he was about to get sacked by Von Miller at midfield on the game-winning drive, the right-handed Mahomes rallied the unbeaten Kansas City Chiefs past the Denver Broncos 27-23 on Monday night.

By overcoming a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit, the Chiefs (4-0) took a two-game lead over the Broncos (2-2), their AFC West rivals whom they’ve now beaten six straight times.

The only other remaining unbeaten team is the Los Angeles Rams.

Down 23-13, Mahomes directed a 12-play, 75-yard drive that ate up more than six minutes and culminated with a 2-yard TD toss to tight end Travis Kelce.

After a three-and-out by Denver, Mahomes added a 60-yard touchdown drive, handing off to Kareem Hunt for the 4-yard score with 1:39 remaining.

On that last drive, Mahomes was getting dragged down by Miller on third-and-5 at midfield when he shifted the ball to his left hand and threw it to Tyreek Hill a yard past the first-down marker at the Broncos 49.

“He’s actually more athletic than people realize”, Denver linebacker Brandon Marshall said. “People talk about his arm, but he can move out of the pocket and make the necessary throws.”

Even with his left hand.

“I didn’t know he threw it with his left hand,” marveled Miller. “He’s a great quarterback.”

“Patrick worked real hard on that left-handed throw,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid quipped. “Some amazing plays there. We’ve seen it in practice but not under those conditions.”

Mahomes proved slippery all night.

“We played well and we got to him but he would scramble out to his right as he likes to do,” Marshall said. “It’s almost like we’d have him in our fingertips and he’d scramble away and throw for a first down.

“The kid can play. He’s going to be really good. He’s really good right now, but we should have won the game.”

It was the first time since 2004 that the Broncos blew a 10-point fourth-quarter lead at home.

Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

DENVER (AP) — Patrick Mahomes rallied the unbeaten Kansas City Chiefs back from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter for a 27-23 win over the Denver Broncos. The Chiefs took a two-game lead over the Broncos in the AFC West with their sixth straight win over their rivals. Down 23-13, Mahomes directed a 12-play, 75-yard drive that ate up more than six minutes and culminated with a 2-yard TD toss to tight end Travis Kelce. He then handed off to Kareem Hunt for the 4-yard go-ahead score with 1:39 remaining.

DENVER (AP) — Patrick Mahomes made one of the biggest plays of the game with a left-handed pass. It led to pivotal first down late in the fourth quarter that helped the Kansas City Chiefs to a 27-23 comeback win over the Denver Broncos. The Chiefs improved to 4-0.

DENVER (AP) — The Denver Broncos ran roughshod over the Kansas City Chiefs but they only ran 22 times and abandoned their ground game late for the second straight week. As a result they opened the door for the Chiefs’ 27-23 fourth-quarter comeback. Instead of being tied with the Chiefs atop the AFC West, the Broncos fell two games behind the unbeaten Chiefs.

UNDATED (AP) — The Cardinals were hovering around .500 when they fired manager Mike Matheny. They went on a second-half run that had them in playoff contention until the season’s penultimate day. Now, with Mike Shildt getting the full-time job, the Cardinals head into the offseason with plenty of hope for the future.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Royals are looking ahead with hope despite losing 104 games this season. They played better down the stretch, when most of their young prospects were seeing the field every day, and there are more youngsters in the pipeline. No crucial pieces are expected to leave in free agency and manager Ned Yost is signed for another year.

UNDATED (AP) — Iowa State coach Matt Campbell says running back David Montgomery is “day-to-day” after suffering an upper arm injury in last weekend’s loss to TCU. Campbell says an MRI and x-rays were negative and that Montgomery was working out with the team with what he described as a deep bruise. Campbell says Montgomery’s status for Saturday’s game at Oklahoma State is probable.
