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

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Akrum Wadley ran for 159 yards and three touchdowns and Iowa scored 28 points in less than a 7-minute span over the halves on its way to a 56-14 win over Nebraska in what could have been coach Mike Riley’s last game with the Cornhuskers. Tight end Noah Fant returned to his home state and caught three passes for a career-high 116 yards and two touchdowns, and Iowa won for the first time in three games since its upset of Ohio State on Nov. 4.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Tucker McCann made a 19-yard field goal with five seconds remaining, and Missouri extended its winning streak to six straight games with a 48-45 victory over Arkansas on Friday. The win caps a remarkable turnaround from a 1-5 start to the season for the Tigers, who were led by quarterback Drew Lock’s 448 yards passing and five touchdown passes.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Chiefs linebackers Dee Ford and Terrance Smith have been ruled out for Sunday’s game against Buffalo. Newly signed cornerback Darrelle Revis could be active for the first time this season. He was signed Wednesday but is familiar enough with the Kansas City defense that he could play against the Bills.

 

 

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Authorities have arrested an Iowa State football player accused of vandalism at a skate park in Ames. The Des Moines Register reports that cornerback Brian Peavy has been charged with criminal mischief. Court records don’t list an attorney for him. A team spokesman says he expects Peavy will play Saturday when the Cyclones take on Kansas State in Manhattan.
