Former UNI Panther David Johnson to sign NFL contract extension

Sports

September 9th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

PHOENIX (AP) — On the eve of their season opener, the Arizona Cardinals have signed star running back David Johnson to a three-year contract extension. Johnson, who led the NFL in yards from scrimmage and touchdowns two seasons ago but missed all but one game a year ago with a fractured left wrist, had held out during the team’s mini-camp but expressed optimism during training camp that a deal would get done.

The contract, announced by the team in a news release Saturday night, runs through the 2021 season. Arizona opens its season at home against the Washington Redskins on Sunday. Johnson was drafted in the third round out of Northern Iowa in 2016 and figures to be the centerpiece of the offense under new coach Steve Wilks, who wants to emphasize a power running game.

Johnson also is a gifted receiver and has set a goal of 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 receiving. Two years ago, the dynamic running back rushed for 1,239 yards and caught 80 passes for 879 yards. He scored 20 touchdowns, 16 rushing and four receiving, earning first-team All-Pro honors.

In that breakout year, Johnson became the first player in NFL history to top 100 yards from scrimmage in each of the first 15 games of the season and may have done it in the 16th had he not injured a knee.

The injury in last season’s opener wiped out the rest of the 2017 and, Johnson acknowledged, reduced his leverage in his hope for a new contract. Johnson would have become a free agent at the end of this season.

Montana pulls away from Drake 48-16

Sports

September 8th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

MISSOULA, Mont. (AP) — Drake came up from Iowa intending the handle the crowd, but in the end couldn’t quite bulldog Montana quarterback Dalton Sneed. Sneed fired two touchdown passes 22 seconds apart and added a scoring run as the Montana Grizzlies pulled away from Drake 48-16 on Saturday.

Drake, a member of the Pioneer League, pushed the Grizzlies behind the play of QB Grant Kraemer, who threw for 281 yards and a touchdown. Kraemer was also sacked seven times and intercepted twice. The Bulldogs had four second-half turnovers.

THE TAKEAWAY
Drake: The Bulldogs (0-1) played solidly in their first half of football this season, following the washout of their season opener last week. They fell off the pace as Montana scored 38 second-half points. Drake committed five turnovers, including three interceptions; the turnovers led to 24 points.

Montana: The Grizzlies’ short passing game wore down their opponent, as quarterback Dalton Sneed threw for 278 yards and ran for another 65.

UP NEXT
Drake: The Bulldogs return home to face Missouri S&T on Sept. 15.
Montana: The Grizzlies, ranked No. 14 in the Football Championship Subdivision, head to Western Illinois for a non-conference game on Sept. 15.

Iowa beats Iowa State 13-3 for 4th straight win in series

Sports

September 8th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Mekhi Sargent scored on a 2-yard TD run with 4:47 left and Iowa beat Iowa State 13-3 on Saturday for the fourth year in a row. Miguel Recinos added a pair of field goals for the Hawkeyes (2-0). Iowa’s winning streak over the Cyclones (0-1) is the longest since the Hawkeyes took 15 straight from 1983-97.

The latest matchup between these two instate rivals was mostly a slog between what could be two of the better defenses in the country. But Iowa finally put together a decent drive when it mattered most by going 83 yards in 13 plays — highlighted by a 30-yard reception by Brandon Smith to set up Sargent’s touchdown.

Kyle Kempt threw for 126 yards for Iowa State before leaving with what appeared to be a leg injury, and Iowa held the Cyclones to 188 yards overall. Iowa State’s David Montgomery ran for just 44 yards on 17 carries. Nate Stanley was 16 of 28 passing for the Hawkeyes.
THE TAKEAWAY
Iowa State: The Cyclones defense, which was so good in 2017, looked like it hadn’t lost a beat. But Iowa State couldn’t find a way to get Montgomery in space, and its offensive line couldn’t crack many holes for him between the tackles either. The bigger concern moving forward will be Kempt though.

Iowa: The Hawkeyes have the makings of a special defense, and that could lead to a special season in Iowa City — especially with what appears to be an easy schedule. Iowa’s wide receivers struggled mightily until the game-deciding drive, and its passing game as a whole has been subpar through two games. But with the way their defense has been playing, that hasn’t mattered much yet.

UP NEXT
The Cyclones host No. 6 Oklahoma on Saturday.
Iowa hosts Northern Iowa of the FCS on Saturday.
