The college career of Iowa defensive lineman Noah Shannon is over. Shannon was suspended for the season by the NCAA as part of a gambling investigation. Hawkeye coach Kirk Ferentz says his appeal has been denied.

Shannon did not wager on an Iowa football game but reportedly wagered on a game involving another Iowa sports team.

Ferentz says he does not agree with or understand the decision.

Shannon passed up the NFL Draft to return for a sixth year and Ferentz says he will remain involved in the program.

The 25th ranked Hawkeyes take a 2-0 record into a game at home against Western Michigan and Ferentz says a key this week is not looking ahead to next week’s Big Ten opener at seventh ranked Penn State.

Ferentz says all he has to do is point to the recent history of the series.

Iowa State coach Matt Campbell says he is focused on getting the Cyclones to bounce back from a tough loss. The Cyclones are 1-1 after a 20-13 loss to Iowa and next up visit Ohio.

It is the Cyclones’ first road test of the season.

Ohio is 2-1 on the season after a 17-10 win at Florida Atlantic.

The run game struggled against Iowa but the offensive line has protected quarterback Rocco Becht through two games. The Cyclones have not given up a sack.

Iowa quarterback Cade McNamara has returned to full practice as the 25th ranked Hawkeyes get ready to host Western Michigan. McNamara played in the first two games despite a quad injury he suffered in a public scrimmage last month.

As his mobility improves it should add to the play book.

McNamara is completing a shade under 57 percent of his passes and he would like that number to be higher.
