AMES, Iowa (AP) — Quarterback Collin Klein ran for 105 yards and three touchdowns and sixth-ranked Kansas State held off Iowa State 27-21 for its fifth straight win over the Cyclones. Klein also threw for 187 yards for the Wildcats (6-0, 3-0 Big 12), who remain unbeaten heading into next week’s showdown with West Virginia. Kansas State held the Cyclones (4-2, 1-2) to just 231 yards of offense. Iowa State still had a chance for the game-winning drive from its own 3-yard line with 2:17 left, but the Wildcats stopped the Cyclones on downs. The Wildcats held the ball for nearly 41 minutes and converted eight of 17 third downs. Jared Barnett threw for 166 yards and two TDs for Iowa State.
EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Mark Weisman ran for 116 yards and a tying touchdown in the final minute of regulation, and Iowa went on to beat Michigan State 19-16 in double overtime Saturday. Mike Meyer kicked field goals in both overtimes, including a 42-yarder in the second that gave the Hawkeyes (4-2, 2-0 Big Ten) their first lead of the game. Iowa then won it when Andrew Maxwell’s deflected pass was intercepted by Greg Castillo. Le’Veon Bell ran for 140 yards and a touchdown for Michigan State, but the Spartans (4-3, 1-2) couldn’t hold on late. Iowa drove 68 yards in nine plays and tied it at 13 on Weisman’s 5-yard scoring run with 55 seconds left in the fourth quarter.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Doesn’t matter how bad things look for the St. Louis Cardinals. Trailing by a bunch, down to their last strike, they simply stay calm and do what it takes to win. Erasing an early six-run hole in Game 5 slowly but surely, the defending World Series champion Cardinals got a tying two-out, two-run single from Daniel Descalso and a go-ahead two-run single from Pete Kozma in the ninth inning and came all the way back to beat the Washington Nationals 9-7 Friday night and win their NL division series. It was the largest comeback ever in a winner-take-all postseason game, according to STATS LLC. No other club in this sort of ultimate pressure situation had come back from more than four down.
EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — When Michigan State beat Iowa last season, the Spartans led 31-7 at halftime. That kind of fast start has been nowhere to be found lately. Michigan State hasn’t led after two quarters in more than a month. The Spartans (4-2, 1-1 Big Ten) will try to reverse that trend Saturday when they host the Hawkeyes (3-2, 1-0) in a crucial matchup in the Big Ten’s Legends Division. Iowa is one of two teams in the division that hasn’t dripped a conference game yet. Michigan State rallied from an early deficit to beat Indiana last weekend, but it was a struggle. The Spartans began the season with Rose Bowl aspirations, but it’s still hard to get a sense of where they stand in a jumbled league race that’s still taking shape.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — It’s been years since Iowa had a true center or a star point guard. Hawkeyes coach Fran McCaffery might have landed both in a single recruiting class — and it doesn’t hurt that they’re homegrown kids either. Freshman center Adam Woodbury and point guard Mike Gesell, who hail from Sioux City, Iowa, and South Sioux City, Nebraska respectively, headline perhaps the best crop of newcomers the Hawkeyes have had in recent memory. Both were consensus top-100 recruits and Iowa-based AAU teammates. They’ll be asked to play a major role in Iowa’s quest to end a seven-year NCAA tournament drought.
