IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Justin Jackson ran for 171 yards and Austin Carr caught three touchdown passes as Northwestern held on to beat Iowa 38-31 on Saturday. Trae Williams’ interception in the final minute secured the win for the Wildcats (2-3, 1-1 Big Ten), who scored touchdowns on three straight drives in the second half for their first win at Kinnick Stadium since 2009. C.J. Beathard threw for 204 yards and a touchdown for Iowa (3-2, 1-1), which snapped its nine-game regular-season Big Ten winning streak.
Northwestern’s Clayton Thorson threw for 164 yards. Carr — his favorite target and the Big Ten’s receptions leader — has caught a touchdown pass in four straight games. Jackson became the fourth player in Northwestern history to reach 3,000 career yards. The junior’s 58-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter regained the lead for the Wildcats.
Defensive end Ifeadi Odenigbo had four of Northwestern’s six sacks. The Hawkeyes had two chances to tie the game in the final seven minutes, but were forced to punt and then Williams intercepted Beathard at Northwestern’s 36-yard line. Iowa’s LeShun Daniels Jr. and Akrum Wadley combined for 107 rushing yards and three touchdowns. Wadley has seven touchdowns in three games against Northwestern.
The Hawkeyes travel to Minnesota now, with hopes of holding onto the “Floyd of Rosedale” trophy. Iowa got whipped 52-14 in its last trip to Minnesota two years ago.
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — Alex Jeske ran for two touchdowns and threw for another as Dayton used a strong running game to beat Drake 35-10 on Saturday for its first Pioneer Athletic League win of the season. Led by Tucker Yinger — with 172 yards on 21 carries — the Flyers (3-2, 1-1) outgained the Bulldogs 323-110 yards on the ground. Jeske opened the scoring with a 48-yard run and scored on a 5-yard run in the second quarter.
Jared Ruffing gained 55 yards on 15 carries and scored TDs on runs of 1 and 5 yards. Jeske connected with Jack Euritt on a 42-yard scoring pass in the first quarter and finished 7 of 15 for 126 yards passing. Grant Kraemer threw a 13-yard TD pass to Zach Zlabis for Drake (2-3, 1-1) and was 22 of 40 for 247 yards passing. Josh Lee kicked a 27-yard field goal.
AMES, Iowa (AP) — Chris Callahan hit a 19-yard field goal as time expired and No. 13 Baylor rallied from 14 down in the fourth quarter to beat Iowa State 45-42 on Saturday. Shock Linwood rushed for 237 yards for the Bears, who moved to 2-0 in the Big 12 for the fourth year in a row.
Baylor (5-0, 2-0), playing without star wide receiver KD Cannon because of a groin injury, trailed 42-28 before using scoring drives of 86 and 84 yards to tie it up. Baylor’s defense finally stiffened in the fourth quarter and Seth Russell — who was 12 of 22 passing for 178 yards — drove Baylor 83 yards to set up Callahan’s chip shot.
Joel Lanning threw for 261 yards and two touchdowns for Iowa State (1-4, 0-2). Mike Warren added a season-high 130 yards rushing for the Cyclones who travel next week to face Oklahoma State in the second game of a brutal stretch. Iowa State plays at Texas the following week and, after a bye, hosts Kansas State and Oklahoma.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – The Chiefs listed Jamaal Charles as questionable for Sunday night’s game at Pittsburgh, while fellow running back Charcandrick West has been ruled out with an ankle injury. Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Friday that how well Charles comes out of the final practice of the week would dictate whether he makes his season debut. The four-time Pro Bowl selection has not played since Week 5 last season, when he tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.
The only other running backs on the active roster are Spencer Ware and Knile Davis. Kansas City could also be relying on a makeshift secondary against Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown & Co. Phillip Gaines is questionable with a knee injury and fellow cornerback Marcus Peters missed two practices this week with the flu, though he was a full participant in Friday’s workout.
AHSTW got two rushing touchdowns from Joel Becerra and RJ Harris threw and ran for a score as the Vikings came away with a hard fought 27-16 over the IKM-Manning Wolves on Friday night in Manning. The Wolves got on the board first with a five yard touchdown pass from Jared Johnson to Ben Wegner and they tacked on the two point conversion to lead 8-0. The Vikings responded on the next drive with an 11 play touchdown drive capped off by one of Becerra’s scores. They kicked the PAT to make it 8-7 and that’s how the first half ended. The Vikings had big defensive stop at the end of the first half after IKM-Manning started at the Viking 13 yard line following an interception. The Vikings ended up forcing a turnover on downs to take the ball back with 2:24 left in the half.
The Vikings came out and took control from the opening drive of the second half. Harris capped off an 8 play drive with a 29-yard touchdown pass to Clint Robinson. The Vikings would score twice more to push their lead out to 27-8 with 7:38 left to play. IKM-Manning tried to mount a rally and hooked up on a 54-yard touchdown pass from Johnson to Alex Heiman on the first play of the next drive. But that would be the end of the scoring as a late fumble and turnover on downs would stop the Wolves from fighting back.
The night was plagued by serious injuries with two Vikings players taken from the premises in an ambulance and an IKM-Maning player being helped off the field with a knee injury. The injuries dampened the spirit of a hard fought game and big win for AHSTW who moves to 6-0 overall and 4-0 in the district. IKM-Manning falls to 2-4 overall and 1-3 in the district.
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Carlos Martinez pitched seven sharp innings, Matt Holliday hit an emotional home run and the St. Louis Cardinals stayed in the middle of the NL wild-card race, beating the Pittsburgh Pirates 7-0 Friday night.
The Cardinals began the day trailing San Francisco by one game for the second NL wild-card spot. The Giants played host to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Martinez (16-9) gave up five singles, walked one and struck out nine.
Holliday, out since Aug. 12 because of a thumb injury, was activated off the disabled list at his request Friday. The club informed him earlier this week that it is not planning to bring him back next season.
Holliday was given a standing ovation before he pinch-hit in the seventh. He responded with his 20th home run, and came out for a curtain call.
Jedd Gyorko hit his 29th homer and Brandon Moss hit his 28th for the Cardinals.
Tyler Glasnow (0-2) finished his rookie season with his most effective start, working five innings and giving up Gyorko’s homer. Glasnow did not allow another Cardinal past second.
