Iowa State Cyclones
Prior win not enough for Iowa to triumph Utah
BY JAKE LOVETT Iowa State University
Riding high after a 14-point win over Texas Tech, Iowa State (3-3, 1-1 Big 12) fell to No. 10 Utah (5-0, 2-0 Mountain West) 68-27 at lack Trice Stadium.
The Utes came in as the 10th-ranked team in the country, but only as six point favorites over the Cyclones. Iowa State got its first two scores off of Utah turnovers to take the 14-10 lead. After the first ISU touchdown, Utah got a field goal and forced an ISU three-and-out.
Arnaud struggled to 13 of 31 passing for 178 yards and two touchdowns, but he also was sacked and threw two interceptions. The ISU offense was held to 348 total yards and was unable to convert any of its 11 third-down tries.
"We played right into their hands," Arnaud said.
in bad positions to keep Utah out of the end zone. The Cyclones' defense allowed 15 first downs in the quarter, and it's regular "bend-dont-break" style yielded four drives ending in the end zone.
Klein was tied with safety David Sims, who forced both of Utah's turnovers, for the team lead in stops with 10 each.

In the end, though, the unit gave up 28 first downs and 593 yards and allowed Utah to convert eight of 13 third downs. Following three straight home games and the loss to Utah, Iowa State now takes to the road for two consecutive weeks, traveling to No. 6 Oklahoma and to Austin, Texas, to face the Longhorns.
The game with Oklahoma will be the Cyclones third straight against a team coming off of a bye week.

Tigers continue to win
BY JOHN MONTESANTOS University of Missouri
Missouri continued its recent rout of Colorado with the commanding win; the Tigers have beaten the Buffaloes in the past four years by a combined margin of 175 to 27. The Missouri offense was slow to start as the sun set on Faurot Field, with their only points through twenty minutes of play coming from a safety and a field goal. It took a run off of a fake punt for the Tigers to get into the red zone and score. Sophomore punter Trey Barrow was second in rushing for the Tigers with the 26-vard run after thefake.

printed them deep.
"It was a huge drive," Coach Gary Pinkel said.
"We were struggling. That was a huge moment drive right before halftime. Score-wise that really separated us."
After Colorado continued to stall the running game, Missouri finally put together a good scoring drive with time ticking down in the first half. Junior quarterback Blaine Gabbert and company took the ball 97 yards for the score after a punt pinned them deep.
really separated us.
Saturday's game fulfilled Missouri's 2010 tendency of spotty offense and steadfast defense. The defense and special teams shined in the victory, blocking both a punt and a field goal as well as earning the shutout. Senior linebacker Andrew Gachark led the red zone stand in the final minutes to keep the shutout.
"We love the goose egg on the board," Gachkar said. "They came down at the very end of the game and wanted that touchdown. We didn't like that in our house so we knew we had to stop them."
At one point in the second half, Gabbert fumbled to give the Buffaloes the ball at the Tiger 13-yard line. The defense forced Colorado backwards into a 40-yard field goal try, which they blocked.
Although it was the first shutout of the season for the Tigers, the inconsistent offense still leaves the team with much room for improvement. Come-from-behind wins over Illinois and San Diego State and underachieving against Colorado might leave a bad taste in their mouths for the rest of their schedule.
After a stagnant third quarter for both sides, freshman quarterback James Franklin resurrected the Tiger offense. Franklin stepped in for an injured Gabbert who came out with a hip pointer and didn't return. Franklin found junior tight end Michael Egnew in the back of the end zone for the first passing touchdown of his Missouri career. The touchdown catch was Egnew's second of the day to go with his 52 yards on six receptions.
Next up for the Tigers is their first away game at No.17 Texas A&M on Oct.16. The Aggies are 3-2 and come off a close loss to Arkansas last week.
"Any 5-0 is better than no 5-0" junior wide receiver Wes Kemp said. "A win is a win, especially when you get into conference play."
