KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Patriots and Chiefs meet for the AFC title, with New England seeking its third straight Super Bowl appearance and Kansas City trying to make it back for the first time since 1970.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Chiefs’ defense has struggled almost all season, ranking near the bottom of the league in almost every statistical category. But they’ve been markedly improved down the stretch, and that gives Kansas City confidence with Tom Brady and the rest of the New England Patriots rolling into Arrowhead Stadium for the AFC title game.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Jermaine Haley hurried up the court and hit a layup with 8.5 seconds left, completing a late rally that lifted West Virginia over No. 7 Kansas 65-64. The Mountaineers scored the final seven points to break a five-game losing streak.

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

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State quarterback Brock Purdy grew up idolizing Tim Tebow. After a phenomenal freshman season, perhaps it was more than serendipity that the Cyclones awarded Purdy No. 15, Tebow’s number at Florida. Purdy has gone from the third string to leading Iowa State to seven wins in nine games last season.

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State says it has rehired Tom Manning as its offensive coordinator. Manning spent last season on the staff of the Indianapolis Colts. He is returning to Ames to run the Cyclones offense under fourth-year coach Matt Campbell.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A 93-year-old World War II veteran has finally been given a medal he won at the 1944 Drake Relays track meet. The Des Moines Register reports that Ted Williams, of Altoona, had finished second in the discus among high school boys. But because of wartime metal rationing, he was given only a certificate that could be redeemed for a medal after the war. He finally received the medal Thursday from Drake University in a surprise ceremony staged by his friends in a coffee group.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Patriots are seeking their third straight Super Bowl appearance while the Chiefs are trying to make it back for the first time since 1970 when the two teams meet for the AFC title. New England has been the dominant franchise of this era, but Kansas City is hoping to take over that mantle behind young quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Tom Brady is playing up the underdog role this week as the New England Patriots prepare to play the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC championship game. That’s right: The three-time NFL MVP and five-time Super Bowl champion is feeling disrespected. The Patriots are three-point underdogs against the AFC-best Chiefs.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Chiefs safety Eric Berry sounds confident that he’ll be on the field when Kansas City plays the New England Patriots in the AFC championship game at Arrowhead Stadium. Berry has been a full participant in practice this week after a foot injury. He says he needs the OK from coach Andy Reid to take the field on Sunday night.

UNDATED (AP) — When noted chef Kenneth Temple was asked to create chili for the Super Bowl, he dived right in with versions that reflect not only his native New Orleans, but New England, Los Angeles and Kansas City. All are distinctive for their ingredients and tastes.
