AMES, Iowa (AP) — The Iowa State-Kansas game on Saturday is by far the least exciting matchup in the Big 12 this season. Try telling that to coaches Paul Rhoads and David Beaty. Rhoads has never won a league opener in six tries with the Cyclones (1-2). If he can’t break that streak against the Jayhawks, he might not get another chance to do so.
Beaty is already 0-3 at Kansas. On paper, the Cyclones represent his best chance to avoid finishing 0-12 as a rookie head coach.
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa wrestling coach Tom Brands has signed a three-year contract extension through 2019-20. Brands, who won gold at the 1996 Olympic Games, has been at Iowa for nine seasons, winning four Big Ten titles and three NCAA crowns.
The Hawkeyes say Brands was also instrumental in bringing the U.S. Olympic Team Trials to Iowa City in 2012. The event was so popular that the U.S. will return to Iowa City for the trials in 2016. The deal was announced Thursday.
The Atlantic Trojan Football team suffered big loss in week 5 to a tough Harlan squad and lost a couple more players to injury along the way. The road doesn’t get any easier in week 6 as the Trojans travel to 5th ranked Dallas Center-Grimes.
The Mustangs sport a 4-1 record with their only loss coming in week 2 to top ranked Pella. The Mustang offense is led by Senior Quarterback Austin Kloewer who has thrown 771 yards and 9 Touchdowns on the season and also rolled up 331 yards rushing and 2 more scores. Dallas Center-Grimes Head Coach Scott Heitland says that Kloewer is the best athlete on the team and is a big part of their offense. Kloewer may be the star but Coach Heitland also believes the Mustangs have a large number of players that are capable of impacting the game.
Atlantic Head Coach Eric Waldstein says his team knows that they need to slow down Kloewer in order to have a chance to compete. On the other side of the ball Waldstein is preparing his team for a multitude of defensive looks from the Mustangs and says their versatility will make it difficult from a play calling standpoint.
We will have coverage of the game on KJAN. Chris Parks and Seth Christensen will bring you the action with Pregame at 6:30pm and Kickoff at 7:00pm. Our football night starts with our weekly high school pick ’em show Who’s Gonna Win? at 6:00pm. Listen in on AM1220, FM101.1, on the web, or on the KJAN mobile app. You can also watch the live video stream on KJANTV.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals are back in a familiar spot: on top of the NL Central looking down at everyone else. Jason Heyward’s third-inning grand slam powered the Cardinals over the Pittsburgh Pirates 11-1 in the second game of a doubleheader on Wednesday night, giving St. Louis its third straight division title and 11th since 1994.
This one may be among the most impressive. The Cardinals and assured themselves of the best record in the majors this season despite losing several stars to injury for long stretches. Heyward’s shot off Bobby LaFromboise, who replaced an ineffective Charlie Morton (9-9), gave St. Louis an early six-run lead. Tyler Lyons (3-1) had little trouble making it hold up as the Cardinals reached the 100-win plateau for the ninth time.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Chiefs got Sean Smith back from his three-game suspension on Wednesday, the same day they found out that fellow cornerback Phillip Gaines will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL. Smith was suspended for violating the NFL’s substance-abuse policy after getting arrested last year for drunken driving. That is normally a two-game suspension for first-time offenders, but Smith was given an extra game for crashing into a light post.
His return couldn’t come at a better time. Gaines had been playing in his place until Monday night in Green Bay, when he tore his ACL while defending a pass in the end zone. The Chiefs struggled to stop Aaron Rodgers and the Packers’ passing offense after he left the game, losing 38-28.
Kansas City visits Cincinnati on Sunday.
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Francisco Cervelli hit his second career grand slam, Gerrit Cole pitched seven solid innings and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the St. Louis Cardinals 8-2 in a doubleheader opener to put St. Louis’ NL Central title hopes on hold. The Cardinals’ magic number remained at two for their third straight division championship after the Pirates jumped on Michael Wacha (17-7).
Cervelli delivered the big blow, a shot to left field with the bases loaded in the fourth. Neil Walker also homered for the Pirates, who moved within three games of St. Louis for first and inched closer to homefield advantage in next week’s wild-card game.
Cole (19-8) allowed two runs and seven hits in seven innings in likely his final regular-season start.
