Chiefs lose fifth straight as rally comes up short at Minnesota

Posted on October 18, 2015October 18, 2015

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings have shown plenty of potential since coach Mike Zimmer took over last year.

Signs of progress can come in ugly performances, too, like Sunday’s victory over the reeling Kansas City Chiefs.

Bailed out by a persistent defense, three field goals by Blair Walsh and another big game by rookie wide receiver Stefon Diggs, Teddy Bridgewater and the Vikings held on to beat the Chiefs 16-10.

“No win in this league is going to come easy. You get an easy win, you’re a lucky team,” said Bridgewater, who threw two interceptions.

Alex Smith’s 42-yard touchdown pass to Albert Wilson midway through the fourth quarter pulled the Chiefs within three points, but the Vikings (3-2) played well enough early to survive their ragged finish. They shut out the Chiefs for more than three quarters.

The Chiefs (1-5) netted 51 yards in the first half and were penalized for 50 yards, but they found a rhythm after the break with five receptions for 88 yards by tight end Travis Kelce.

Charcandrick West, one of the replacements for injured star Jamaal Charles, was stopped for no gain on fourth-and-1 at the 7-yard line midway through the fourth quarter. The Chiefs argued that West’s knee never touched the ground, but the play was not reviewable.

Then West lost the ball at the Minnesota 38, and Brian Robison recovered with 4:32 left.

“We were very confident. The fumble killed everything,” West said.

Diggs had 129 yards on seven catches on a day when Bridgewater passed for only 106 yards over the last three quarters and Adrian Peterson finished with only 60 yards on 26 carries against a Chiefs front seven that went all out to stop him.

“There was a lot of things we didn’t do well, we wish we could have back, but it’s better to talk about those things with a `W,” said Peterson, who hurt the ring finger on his right hand, but said he’d be fine.

Bridgewater passed for 143 yards in the first quarter, but a smooth first drive hit a pothole on Ron Parker’s end zone interception, the first by the Chiefs in four weeks.

The Vikings appeared to have a safety three snaps later when left guard Ben Grubbs was called for holding. But referee Jerome Boger announced the infraction took place “in the field of play,” despite replays that revealed Grubbs halfway into the end zone when Smith’s third-down throw was released.

The Vikings declined the penalty to force a punt, and the yellow flags kept flying, most critically against the Chiefs. Cornerback Steven Nelson was called for roughing the passer on a third-and-6 incompletion midway through the second quarter, extending a drive that ended with Bridgewater’s short touchdown pass to Kyle Rudolph that put the Vikings up 10-0.

Bridgewater finished 17 for 31, with several overthrows beyond the two that were picked off, but he found Diggs for 30 yards on third-and-15 on the drive in the fourth quarter for their final field goal.

“I think Teddy has a lot of confidence in him,” Zimmer said. “He’s got a chance to be really good.”

Shortly after Marcus Peters intercepted Bridgewater at the Kansas City 23, the Chiefs faced an all-out blitz on third-and-10. Smith turned to Wilson for a short screen pass that became a score and cut the lead to 13-10 with 8:46 left.

“They could see it was very obvious in the second half when we came alive what we can do,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. “We have to stay consistent and get it.”

The Vikings’ defense did just enough to keep them in front from there.

“They got the job done for us,” Peterson said. “That’s why it’s called a team.”

Game notes
The Chiefs lost DE Mike DeVito and WR Jeremy Maclin to concussions. … In two games, Diggs has 216 yards on 13 catches. … This was the first win for the Vikings after their bye week since 2009. … The Chiefs were flagged 11 times, with eight penalties accepted for 95 yards.

Northwest soccer scores two late goals to defeat UNK in overtime

Posted on October 18, 2015October 18, 2015

The Northwest Missouri State soccer team scored two goals in the final four minutes of competition to defeat Nebraska Kearney in stunning fashion, 2-1.

The Bearcats improve to 3-7-3 this season and 2-5-1 in the MIAA, while the Lopers drop to 4-7-3 overall and 3-4-1 in the conference.

Katelynn Lindsey scored on both of her shots on goal while anchoring a back line that conceded just one goal.

With the wind at her back, Lindsey stood over a free kick from 35 yards out in the 88th minute. Lindsey chose to put the ball on frame and over the outreached arms of the keeper, leveling the score at one.

Less than two minutes into the overtime period, the Bearcats again drew a foul in their offensive third. Lindsey stepped up to take the free kick, this time from near the left sideline, 30 yards away from the goal. Lindsey sent the ball to the far post. The wind carried it over a scrum of players in the box and over the head of the keeper, giving the Bearcats a stunning 2-1 victory.

Northwest Missouri State will return to the road on Friday when they head to St. Charles, Mo. for a 5 p.m. meeting with the Lindenwood Lions.

Griffons fall at home to Washburn 21-7

Posted on October 17, 2015October 17, 2015

ST. JOSEPH – The Missouri Western football team lost their homecoming game inside Spratt Stadium Saturday against Washburn, 21-7.

MWSU was outgained 414 yards to 245. The Griffons did rush for 171 yards but only totaled 74 passing yards and TJ LaFaver had three interceptions in the game, one was returned for a touchdown. Washburn took a 7-0 lead to halftime off a 10-yard touchdown pass from Derek McGinnis to Bryce Chavis.

Washburn took a 14-0 lead early in the third quarter when Cody Heiman picked off LaFaver and went 25 yards for a touchdown. LaFaver would finish 10-23 passing with the three interceptions for 74 yards. He did rush 14 times for 78 yards and made it 14-7 in the third quarter with a touchdown pass to Alec Ferbet. Ferbet finished with a team-high four catches for 40 yards. No other Griffon had more than two catches and Raphael Spencer’s 16 receiving yards were the second most on the team. Raphael Spencer rushed 17 times for 73 yards. Spencer fumbled twice, losing one.

The loss dropped Missouri Western to 4-3 and pulled the Griffons even with Washburn in the MIAA standings. Next week Missouri Western travels to 6-1 Emporia State for a 1:00 p.m. kickoff. The Hornets suffered their first loss of the year Saturday to Fort Hays State.

Royals rally past Price, Blue Jays to take 2-0 lead in ALCS

Posted on October 17, 2015

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Ben Zobrist’s easy fly that somehow fell in for a hit began a five-run rally against David Price in the seventh inning, and the Kansas City Royals rolled to a 6-3 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday for a 2-0 lead in the American League Championship Series.

Wade Davis survived a shaky ninth inning for Kansas City after Luke Hochevar and Danny Duffy were solid in relief of Yordano Ventura. Kelvin Herrera breezed through the eighth.

Davis gave up a leadoff single and walked pinch hitter Cliff Pennington but bounced back to strike out Ben Revere and MVP candidate Josh Donaldson. Jose Bautista flied out to right to give Davis his third postseason save and the Royals another postseason comeback win.

“Our guys never quit. They keep going,” Royals manager Ned Yost said.

The Royals had been held to one hit by Price before stringing together four singles and a double in their go-ahead inning. They got run-producing hits from Eric Hosmer, Mike Moustakas, Alex Gordon and Alex Rios, along with an RBI groundout from Kendrys Morales.

It was a monumental collapse for Price, who at one point had recorded 18 straight outs. He fell to 0-7 in seven postseason starts, including a loss to Texas in their AL Division Series.

Meanwhile, the reigning AL champs have won nine straight ALCS games dating to their memorable seven-game series against Toronto in 1985 — the year they won their only World Series. The record is 10 straight wins set by Baltimore in the 1960s and ’70s.

Now the Blue Jays head home for Game 3 on Monday night in dire trouble. All but three of the previous 25 teams to take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven era have won the series — although Toronto did rally from the same hole to beat the Rangers in five games in the divisional round.

“You got to get a win under your belt,” Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. “It won’t be easy, no doubt about that. But you get one win out of the way, it can turn things around in a hurry.”

For most of the afternoon, it appeared the Blue Jays would forge a 1-1 tie.

Ryan Goins drove in a run off Ventura in the third, snapping an 18-inning scoreless streak by Royals pitchers, and Edwin Encarnacion and Troy Tulowitzki had RBIs in the sixth.

The way Price was carving up the lineup, a 3-0 lead looked to be enough.

The only bad pitch he threw the first six innings was his first, which Escobar swatted for a leadoff single. Price threw first-pitch strikes to 12 of 14 batters at one point and struck out the side in the sixth inning, giving no indication he was about to implode.

“We just needed to catch a break,” Moustakas said. “Price was throwing the ball unbelievable. We got the early hit, and he was kind of cruising. We just needed to find a way to get a runner on base so we could do what we can, keep the line moving.”

The Royals finally got it thanks to a costly defensive lapse.

Zobrist sent a popup to shallow right field to start the seventh, and Goins gave chase from second base and Bautista from right field. Both wound up letting it drop for a single, and for the first time all game, a sellout crowd at Kauffman Stadium began to stir.

“I felt like we needed to catch a break,” Gordon said, “and Zobrist’s ball was it.”

Cain followed with a clean single to extend his postseason hit streak to 11 games, matching a franchise record. Hosmer’s single got the Royals on the board, and Morales added an RBI groundout up the middle before Moustakas came up. In a 2-for-25 slump and without an RBI this postseason, he pulled a tying double to right field to set the crowd of 40,357 into a frenzy.

Gordon’s double gave Kansas City the lead. Rios added another single off reliever Aaron Sanchez to close the book on Price, who was dinged for all five runs in one disastrous inning.

The last time he allowed five runs in an inning was May 8. The opponent: Kansas City.

The Royals tacked on another run off the Toronto relief corps in the eighth, but it was hardly necessary. Kansas City’s shutdown bullpen made certain the lead would stand up.

Mizzou’s offense shut down in 9-6 loss at Georgia

Posted on October 17, 2015October 17, 2015

ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — Marshall Morgan, who missed from 26 yards about 4 minutes earlier, kicked a 34-yard field goal with 1:44 remaining and Georgia edged Missouri 9-6 on Saturday night in a game with no touchdowns.

Georgia (5-2, 3-2 Southeastern Conference) snapped a two-game losing streak by holding Missouri (4-3, 1-3) to six first downs and 164 total yards. Missouri has lost two straight.

Georgia’s Sony Michel had 26 carries for 87 yards rushing while taking over as the starter following star tailback Nick Chubb’s season-ending knee injury.

The Tigers showed why they lead the SEC in pass defense and scoring defense. They had allowed an average of only 13.5 points per game before frustrating quarterback Greyson Lambert and the Bulldogs. Lambert’s first pass was intercepted.

The win allowed Georgia to protect its hopes of catching SEC East leader Florida, which lost to LSU 35-28.

Lambert completed 23 of 32 passes for 178 yards. He suffered a rough start when his first pass was deflected by linebacker Michael Scherer and intercepted by Ian Simon, whose 39-yard return to the Georgia 1 set up a 20-yard field goal by Andrew Baggett.

Georgia’s red-zone defense was strong in the half, holding the Tigers to a 6-3 halftime lead.

Freshman Drew Lock completed only 11 of 26 passes for 143 yards with no interceptions for Missouri. Russell Hansbrough had 11 carries for only 24 yards. The Tigers were held to 21 yards rushing.

Michel was accompanied to the locker room for an undisclosed reason in the first quarter. Georgia turned to Brendan Douglas, who was stopped for no gain on consecutive plays, including a fourth-and-one at the Missouri 45.

Michel returned for Georgia’s next possession but couldn’t consistently replace Chubb’s power that helped him record 13 straight games with more than 100 yards rushing.

Chubb, accompanied by former star tailback Todd Gurley, now with the NFL St. Louis Rams, walked to the Georgia sideline on crutches and sat on a trainer’s table during the game. The Rams have a bye week.

Georgia’s first-half follies also included a botched onside kick that didn’t travel 10 yards. The Bulldogs also had a long incomplete pass from Lambert on a busted play when his intended receiver, Reggie Davis, was at least 20 yards away. That drive still produced Georgia’s only points of the half on Morgan’s 29-yard field goal.

Georgia safety Dominick Sanders was ejected for targeting on his hit on Emanuel Hall in the third quarter. The call was confirmed following a quick review by the officials.

An apparent interception by Missouri safety Anthony Sherrils was overturned by a review as officials determined the ball hit the ground. The call set up a tying 24-yard field goal by Morgan late in the third quarter.

Morgan was wide left on a 26-yard field goal with 5:40 remaining.

Kansas State gets destroyed by No. 19 Oklahoma 55-0

Posted on October 17, 2015October 17, 2015

MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) — The 19th-ranked Oklahoma Sooners proved Saturday that they have more to offer than they showed last week in their loss to struggling Texas.

Baker Mayfield threw for five touchdowns and Oklahoma bounced back from its Red River upset to beat Kansas State 55-0 on Saturday, the first time the Wildcats have been shut out since 1996.

Kansas State had delivered serious scares to Top 25 opponents each of the last two weeks but the Wildcats (3-3, 0-3 Big 12) were helpless against the Sooners (5-1, 2-1). Oklahoma set the tone early, taking only 1:04 to score on its opening drive on a 22-yard pass from Mayfield to Sterling Shepard.

“We had a great intensity coming into the game, and guys were fired up in the locker room,” Shepard said. “Everybody wanted to show what type of team we were because of last week’s loss, so we did a great job with intensity and executing our jobs.”

The Sooners took a 35-0 lead into halftime as Mayfield threw for all five of his TDs in the first half, including two to Shepard. He finished 20 of 27 for 282 yards. The quarterback credited the success to the quickness with which the offense moved.

“It’s the tempo,” Mayfield said. “Defenses can’t line up and do all their crazy stuff, and when we do that, I think I play better faster. I’m able to react and go on the run.”

Oklahoma kept rolling to open the second half. The Wildcats had benched Joe Hubener in favor of Kody Cook, who played most of the first half at wide receiver, and Cook promptly threw an interception that Zack Sanchez returned 38 yards for a touchdown that made the score 42-0.

“It’s disappointing, that’s a big word for it,” Cook said. “You’re angry. You’re disappointed. It’s really frustrating. We obviously didn’t expect to get shut out. We thought we had a pretty good game plan.”

The Sooners tacked on two more field goals in the third quarter, and five minutes into the fourth quarter Joe Mixon scored the first rushing touchdown of the day for Oklahoma, stretching the lead to 55-0.

Mixon finished with 73 yards on 15 carries to lead a Sooners rushing attack that rolled up 232 yards. Mixon also caught three passes for 29 yards, including a 10-yard touchdown catch in the first quarter.

The dominating win came after Oklahoma’s arduous trek to get to Manhattan. Oklahoma head coach Bob Stoops said the Sooners left their facility at 2 p.m. Friday to drive to Oklahoma City and take a 40-minute flight to Manhattan but because of problems with various planes did not walk into their hotel rooms until 12:15 a.m.

Waiting at the airport until late in the evening, Stoops said the support members of the program had to team up to deliver what amounted to a fast-food potluck so that players and coaches could have dinner.

“Try and get 10 burgers, 10 tacos, 10 — if everyone, if we had 10 people go out and get 10 whatever, we’d feed our players, and that’s exactly what we did,” Stoops said.

“Now the players want it every week,” Stoops joked.

Mayfield said players were so focused that nothing could have distracted them from redeeming themselves from the 24-17 loss to the Longhorns.

“Our week of practice, I knew we were ready to come out and play, no matter what happened,” Mayfield said. “We could’ve stayed up all night and come out and been ready to play.”

Going into Saturday’s game, Kansas State had scored in 234 straight games. The loss to Oklahoma marked the first time the Wildcats have been shut out at home since 1991.

“I think all of us are embarrassed,” Kansas State coach Bill Snyder said. “I can’t remember being involved in a game like this since 1989, the first year we were here, and I don’t even know if we had one that bad in that first go-around.”

Western volleyball loses in four sets at No. 15 Washburn

Posted on October 17, 2015October 17, 2015

TOPEKA, Kan. – The Missouri western volleyball team got off to a tremendous start but couldn’t hold off a comeback at No. 15 Washburn Saturday afternoon.

Missouri Western took the first set 25-16, but dropped the next three to fall in four sets to the Ichabods.
Neither team was that efficient on the attack with Washburn hitting .178 and Missouri Western hitting .170. The teams were close in kills with Washburn totaling just six more. The Ichabods had 70 kills and MWSU had 64. A big difference was Washburn’s five aces to Missouri Western’s one.

Blair Russell led Missouri Western with 13 kills, a career-high for the junior. Kayla Ruff also set a new career mark, for the second-straight night with 34 digs. Rachel Friedrichs had 12 kills and Jessie Thorup had 11. The loss dropped Missouri Western’s overall record to 15-5 and 7-2 in the MIAA. The team will continue a five-match road trek with trips to Missouri Southern, Southwest Baptist and Truman State.

Jayhawks’ rally comes up short against Texas Tech

Posted on October 17, 2015October 17, 2015

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — The Texas Tech defense kept the Red Raiders in the game at Kansas.

Coach Kliff Kingsbury was not impressed by his offense Saturday morning despite the 30-20 victory.

“We were lucky to win the game,” Kingsbury said. “Guys got nervous and we just all choked on that side of the ball. It’s the only way to put it.”

Patrick Mahomes threw for 359 yards and a score and De’Andre Washington rushed for 160 yards and a TD. Washington shared Kingsbury’s sentiment.

“The offense just didn’t come through,” Washington said. “The offense just didn’t come to play, really. It’s all it was.”

The Red Raiders (5-2, 2-2 Big 12) racked up 225 yards rushing and a touchdown on the ground. Texas Tech’s 30 points were the least amount the team has scored all season.

Five different Texas Tech offensive playmakers recorded over 50 yards receiving. Zach Austin led the Red Raiders with 80 yards receiving, Jakeem Grant had 76 yards, Devin Lauderdale had 50, Cameron Batson, 58, and Reginald Davis, 57 yards and a score.

Texas Tech continued its streak of perfection, as the Red Raiders are 9-0 inside Memorial Stadium, a record dating to 1966.

Kansas (0-6, 0-3) is riding a nine-game losing streak and is 0-6 for the first time since 1988. Before this season, Kansas had only started 0-6 three times in program history, in 1954 and 1988. Head coach David Beaty is still waiting for his first win.

But just because Kansas is 0-6 doesn’t mean they aren’t a worthy opponent.

“I feel like people underestimated the opponent and (didn’t) understand that this is college football and any team can beat any team, especially in the Big 12,” defensive end Branden Jackson said.

Freshman quarterback Ryan Willis was 35 of 50 for a career-high 330 yards passing in his second start for the Jayhawks. Willis turned the ball over three times, throwing two picks and dropped a fumble. Running back De’Andre Mann gained 107 yards on 15 carries.

Kansas had its share of bloopers, most of those coming on special teams.

Matthew Wyman missed an extra point attempt and two field goals, a 52-yard attempt and a 34-yard attempt, and Nick Bartolotta shanked a 22-yard field goal wide right.

But Kansas wasn’t going out without a fight. Kansas had back-to-back touchdowns in the fourth quarter to put them down by 3.

With less than five minutes to go, Willis was backed up in his own end zone, which would have resulted in a safety, but he fumbled. Two Texas Tech defenders wrestled for the ball, but the ball rolled to Mann, who ran out of the end zone for a 4-yard gain.

Johnson was one of those defenders.

“I got on the ball first and Breiden (Fehoko) was coming and it’s kind of hard to slow that 300-pound body down,” Johnson said. “He dove on me and kind of stripped me from the ball and Kansas was able to get up on it and make a play.”

But the momentum quickly shifted. On the next play, Willis threw a pick-six and Kansas’ comeback hopes were dashed.

Nebraska rolls to easy win at Minnesota

Posted on October 17, 2015October 17, 2015

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Nebraska was reeling from four losses already this fall on the opponent’s final offensive play, stirring up angst among the proud program’s ardent fans just halfway into coach Mike Riley’s first season.

This was quite the recovery — and the sigh of relief.

Tommy Armstrong Jr. bounced back from a pair of bad performances to start Big Ten play, passing for 261 yards and three touchdowns to start the salvaging of Nebraska’s season and steer a 48-25 victory over Minnesota on Saturday.

“Hey, let’s just have fun. Let’s make a statement. Everybody’s counting us out,” Armstrong said, describing the team’s mentality.

Terrell Newby rushed for 116 yards and two first-half scores on just 13 carries for the Cornhuskers (3-4, 1-2), who pummeled the Golden Gophers (4-3, 1-2) on the line of scrimmage after the opposite occurred the last two matchups.

“It was one of those things,” Minnesota coach Jerry Kill said. “We weren’t moving them.”

Nebraska predictably had plenty of fans on hand, with the two campuses a six-hour drive apart. Red hats, jackets and jerseys were packing the corners of the upper deck, interspersed throughout the lower bowl and spotted all over the Twin Cities this weekend. They had most of the stadium to themselves to chant “Go Big Red!” to their heart’s content by the end, with the frustrated home crowd largely emptied out.

“I’m really happy for everybody involved here, the coaches, the players and our fans,” Riley said. “I’ve said all along: They’re the greatest in the world. All they want to do is win, and we all certainly understand that.”

Mitch Leidner did his best to keep Minnesota competitive against Nebraska’s FBS-worst pass defense with career bests in completions (26) and yards (301). He threw two late interceptions, one that was returned by Joshua Kalu for a 41-yard touchdown, after passing for one touchdown and running for another.

K.J. Maye had 94 yards receiving and a 7-yard touchdown run, but the Huskers were ready for just about everybody else.

“With what we’ve been through this year, it feels good to get a win,” Newby said.

The troubling trend for the Gophers was that Leidner was as sharp as he’s ever been, completing 16 of 17 passes for 156 yards in the first half, but they still got blown out. After scoring on the opening drive, their first touchdown in the first quarter this season, they let the Huskers tie the game in three plays when Newby galloped through a gaping hole in the middle and bounced outside for a 69-yard scoring scamper.

After rushing for 271 yards in a victory over Nebraska here two years ago and 281 yards in a win in Lincoln last season, Minnesota was stymied for 65 yards on 26 attempts with defensive tackles Maliek Collins and Vincent Valentine doing plenty of damage inside.

“It was just us a physical mentality we brought to the game,” said Collins, who mentioned the 281 yards from last year as motivation.

Alonzo Moore, Cethan Carter and De’Mornay Pierson-El were the touchdown targets by Armstrong, who completed only 36 percent of his passes for a total of 234 yards in losses to Illinois and Wisconsin the last two weeks.

Pierson-El, who fumbled near the goal line in the closing minutes of Minnesota’s 28-24 win at Nebraska last year, missed the first four games with a foot injury. He had a 42-yard punt return and the catch of the game in the corner of the end zone early in the fourth quarter when he tipped the ball to himself between two defensive backs.

Carter’s reach to push the ball over the pylon in the third quarter marked the end of a 99-yard march in 10 plays by the Huskers, the defining stretch against an injury-affected Gophers defense that had been so good this season and the last two.

“It’s frustrating, looking at our goals that we set early on in the season and looking where we’re at now, but it’s just part of the game,” Leidner said. “Things like this just happen, and you’ve just got to be able to keep fighting back.”
