AMES, Iowa (AP) – Iowa State, a double-digit underdog to a Texas Tech team fresh off perhaps the most stunning upset in the country in 2011, crushed the Red Raiders 41-7 on Saturday night. It was by far the biggest win over a ranked team in school history. Iowa State (4-4, 1-4 Big 12) hadn’t been within two touchdowns of any conference opponent all season, yet had no trouble against a team that had won at Oklahoma just a week earlier. The Cyclones offense found its rhythm early under new quarterback Jared Barnett and their defense stifled Texas Tech’s high-powered passing attack. The trick, of course, will be to keep it going starting with Saturday’s home game against woeful Kansas (2-6, 0-5).
Tony La Russa is retiring after 33 seasons as a manager, and he’s going out on top. He told reporters his decision today at a press conference, three days after his Cardinals won the World Series. La Russa captured three World Championships in his career and won Manager of the Year four times. He managed the White Sox, Athletics, and Cardinals in a career that began in 1979. Prior to that, La Russa played six seasons in the Majors as a middle infielder.

ST. LOUIS (AP) – A red sea of fans jam downtown St. Louis, Sunday, to honor the world champion Cardinals and send a clear message to Albert Pujols: Please stay. An official crowd estimate was not immediately available for the parade down the streets of St. Louis and the celebration at Busch Stadium, but city officials expected several hundred thousand. The crowd was so large that people were parking more than two miles from the parade route. Pujols drew a long standing ovation at the stadium. When asked if he’d like to be back for another celebration next season, he smiled sheepishly and said, “Hey, why not?” Pujols is a free agent. The Cardinals hope to keep him but it isn’t clear if they’ll be able to do so.
LUBBOCK, Texas — Redshirt freshman Jared Barnett threw for a touchdown and ran for another, and Iowa State shocked No. 19 Texas Tech 41-7 on Saturday night, a week after the Red Raiders won at Oklahoma.
Making his first start, Barnett’s mobility caused the Red Raiders defense fits. He rushed for 92 yards on 19 carries and completed 14 of 26 passes for 144 yards. His touchdowns were career firsts.
It was the largest margin of victory over a ranked team for Iowa State since the Cyclones beat No. 20 Nebraska in Ames by 22 points (36-14) in 2002.
Seth Doege completed 16 of 32 passes for a season-low 171 yards for the Red Raiders (5-3, 2-3). He threw two interceptions, lost a fumble and scored the Red Raiders lone score on an 8-yard touchdown run.
Iowa State (1-4, 4-4) rolled up 368 rushing yards against Texas Tech’s 105th-ranked rushing defense.
POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. — Mike Piatkowski threw for two touchdowns, and Drake’s defense held off Marist 23-13 on Saturday.
Piatkowski started the scoring on a 21-yard pass to Drew Blackmon, and then added a 22-yarder to Joey Orlando for a 14-0 lead midway through the second quarter.
The Bulldogs (7-2, 5-1 Pioneer League) went up 17-0 after a 32-yard field goal by Billy Janssen. Drake’s defense did the rest, holding the Red Foxes (3-6, 2-4) to 255 yards of total offense.
The Bulldogs continued their dominance of the running game, holding Marist to 34 yards on the ground. Coming in, Drake led the Pioneer League in allowing just 82.3 yards rushing.
The Bulldogs’ Tyler Moorehead had 4.5 tackles for a loss of 23 yards, including three sacks totaling 21 yards.
Patrick Cashmore rushed for 109 yards and a touchdown on 28 carries for Drake, which has won all three matchups against Marist.
FARGO, N.D. — Brock Jensen completed a career-high 22 of 25 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown Saturday as North Dakota State took sole possession of first place in the Missouri Valley Conference with a 27-19 victory over Northern Iowa.
D.J. McNorton scored on a 6-yard run and an 8-yard pass for the Bison (8-0, 5-0), who are one of two undefeated teams in the FCS, along with Sam Houston State (8-0). North Dakota State also scored on a 3-yard fumble recovery by Kyle Emanuel.
Northern Iowa (6-2, 5-1), which was averaging 202 yards rushing per game, was held to 53. David Johnson had 16 yards on 10 carries, but caught 10 passes for 114 yards and a TD.
Tirrell Rennie was 20 of 30 for 224 yards, but threw his first interception of the season — snapping a school-record streak of 171 passes without an interception dating back to last season.
