Iowa State is looking to end a losing streak in the Cy-Hawk Series in Saturday’s 69th meeting in Kinnick Stadium. The Hawkeyes have won the last six games in the series. Cyclone sophomore receiver Jaylin Noel.
Noel says a key will be solving the Iowa defense.
Noel says the Cyclone offense will also need to handle the noise in Kinnick Stadium.
Drake coach Todd Stepsis liked what he saw from his team despite a 56-14 loss at defending FCS champion and top ranked North Dakota State. The Bulldogs open their home schedule on Saturday by hosting Division II Missouri S@T.
Stepsis saw significant progress that ranked at the bottom of the Pioneer Football League last season.
Three quarterbacks saw action last week but Stepsis says senior Ian Corwin is the clear starter after throwing two touchdown passes against the Bison.
Stepsis wants the Bulldogs to approach this week’s game in the same manner.

(Radio Iowa) – The dean of Iowa State University’s history department says he experienced a surprising sweep of sadness at the news Queen Elizabeth had died. Simon Cordery was born outside of London and his family moved to the U.S. when Cordery was 15. “She’s the only head of state, like most Britons, I’ve ever known and her presence was always a source of stability,” he says. “It lent a sense of permanence to an ever changing world.”
Cordery. who has dual citizenship in the United States and the United Kingdom, says the queen was an incredible ambassador for all things British — even for people like him who aren’t necessarily in total support of the idea of a monarchy. “Depending on what happens to the monarchy in the next 50 years, and as a historian I wouldn’t dare to even begin to speculate, I can imagine she that will be perceived and interpreted as a person who saved the monarchy at a time of incredible trial and uncertainty,” Cordery says.

Her uncle abdicated from the throne to marry a twice divorced American and Elizabeth’s father became king until his death in 1952. Elizabeth ascended to the throne at the age of 25. “Her ability to become in many ways a voice of the British people surprised and delighted a lot of English and Scottish and Irish and Welsh people who didn’t really know what to expect from this admittedly very young princess,” Cordery says. Elizabeth’s eldest son is now King Charles the third and Cordery suspects he’s in for a bit of a rough ride.
“He’s got a tough act to follow. I don’t envy him and he’s had a lot of bad press, of course — some of it his own making and some of it just because of who he is,” Cordery says. “…I can’t imagine that he will make any major missteps. The question is how strong of an advocate will he be for maintaining the commonwealth, how much of his time will he be able to devote to making sure that the infrastructure that his mother has so carefully nurtured will remain in place.”
Cordery is teaching a class in western civilization this semester and he’s looking forward to hearing students’ reactions to Queen Elizabeth’s passing. “I’m curious to know my students’ response to this news,” he says. “I’m curious to know how quickly they learned about it, what their immediate thoughts were, how they feel about it all.”
Several Iowa elected officials issued written statements after the announcement that Queen Elizabeth had died. Senator Chuck Grassley’s staff released a photo of Grassley with the queen after her 1991 address to the U.S. congress. Governor Kim Reynolds has ordered all flags in Iowa to be flown at half staff until after the state funeral for Queen Elizabeth on Monday, September 19th.

The Atlantic Trojans football team will hit the road this Friday to take on Hawkeye Ten foe Shenandoah. The Trojans come in to the contest at 0-2 and are looking to finish stronger in week 3 after making some mistakes and turning the ball over to lose a lead against Kuemper Catholic in week 2. Atlantic Head Coach Joe Brummer has been encouraged by some solid play for portions of their first two games, but said they need to put the full effort together.
The Mustangs come in at 2-0 and are playing with confidence. Shenandoah Head Coach Ty Ratliff said it’s been a good start to the season.
Shenandoah has a solid trio of leaders. Blake Herold, Beau Gardner, and Jayden Dickerson have lead on offense and defense for the Mustangs. Gardner and Dickerson split the ball-carrying duties in the backfield and Herold is a big target outside. Coach Brummer said the Trojans will need to slow down that big three.
Atlantic has been able to sling the ball around. Caden Andersen leads Class 3A passers with 554 yards and 5 touchdowns. Coach Ratliff said he is going to need his secondary to win some one-on-one battles.
The Trojans and the Mustangs will kick off at 7:00 p.m. Friday night and we’ll have the coverage on KJAN. Chris Parks and Mike Smith will have the call on AM 1220, FM 101.1, online at KJAN.com, and KJANTV. The night starts with our pick ’em show Who’s Gonna Win? at 6:00 p.m. followed by pregame at 6:30 p.m. Catch a full rundown interview with Coach Brummer on Trojan Preview at 4:45 p.m. as well.

(Radio Iowa) – Testimony began today (Thursday) with the playing of a 9-1-1 call in the first-degree murder trial of a Merrill man accused of killing his son. The jury heard from the dispatcher — and heard two 9-1-1 calls made by Thomas Knapp’s wife Darlene on the day of the shooting.
In the second call, Darleen Knapp says her 51-year-old son Kevin Juzek, is trying to defend himself against his father who has a shotgun.
Plymouth County Deputy Rick Singer testified that they found Knapp walking with his hands in his coat and he had trouble understanding them.
Knapp is hard of hearing and during testimony sat in a wheelchair wearing a pair of headphones. The trial will resume Friday at the courthouse in Le Mars.
IOWA CITY, Iowa — The University of Iowa, in conjunction with the Big Ten Conference, announced its 2022-23 men’s basketball schedule on Thursday.
The Hawkeyes will play 17 regular season home games and an exhibition on Mediacom Court at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Seven of Iowa’s 11 nonconference home contests will be played in Iowa City. Iowa will tipoff the 2022-23 season on Monday, Nov. 7, versus Bethune Cookman. The Hawkeyes will play nonconference road games at Seton Hall (Nov. 16) and neutral site contests versus Clemson and TCU/Cal in Niceville, Florida (Nov. 25-26) and Duke in New York City (Dec. 6).

Iowa won 26 games, second most in a single season in program history, and tied for fourth in the conference standings last season. The Hawkeyes have competed in the last three NCAA Tournaments and have been ranked in the final Associated Press Poll each of the last three years: No. 16 in 2020, No. 8 in 2021 and No. 25 in 2022.
