Mark Gronowski threw a career-high four touchdown passes and South Dakota State defeated Missouri State 28-14 on Saturday in a Missouri Valley Football Conference opener matching top-five FCS teams. Gronowski threw touchdown passes of 21 yards to Zach Heins and 40 yards to Jadon Janke to snap a fourth-quarter tie. Gronowski's first-quarter TD pass to Jadon Janke was good for a 7-0 halftime lead that he extended with a 13-yard toss to Jaxon Janke - Jadon's brother - in the third quarter. It's the sixth time the brothers have each caught TD passes in the same game.

The Bears (2-2, 1-0) rallied with Jacardia Wright's 15-yard run and Jason Shelley's 67-yard pass to Raylen Sharpe in the third quarter. Gronowski was 22-of-29 passing with Heins finishing with 127 yards receiving and Jadon Janke 102 for the Jackrabbits (3-1, 1-0). Shelley threw for 357 yards in a 38-27 loss to 10th-ranked Arkansas last week and went over 6,000 for his career on Saturday after a 19-of-29 passing day for 185 yards with two interceptions. - South Dakota State/AP College Football

09/18/22 - Kaleb Johnson, Jr/2025, Iowa, 6-1, 224 (DS#6 RB) + More +

Kaleb Johnson rushed for 103 yards and two touchdowns, and Iowa endured a night of lightning delays for a 27-0 win over Nevada on Saturday night. The game, which was delayed three times for 3 hours, 56 minutes, started at 6:40 p.m. CDT, and ended at 1:39 a.m. "Three rain delays and seven hours, and we found a way to win the game," Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said. Johnson, a true freshman, had a 40-yard touchdown run in the first quarter for Iowa's first points of the game, then added a 55-yarder in the fourth quarter for the Hawkeyes' final score. "I've been waiting for this since I got here," Johnson said. "It's just a blessing." Iowa (2-1) had scored just 14 points in its first two games, but matched that in the first quarter.

Johnson had his run, then quarterback Spencer Petras threw a 21-yard touchdown pass to Arland Bruce IV on the Hawkeyes' next possession. "My heart dropped," Johnson said of the touchdown. "It was so amazing. I was wanting another one." The Hawkeyes, ranked 131st in total offense through the first two games after gaining just 316 yards, had 337 yards against the Wolfpack (2-2), who came in ranked 95th in total defense giving up 404.3 yards per game. Iowa's other points came on two field goals by Drew Stevens - a 43-yarder in the second quarter and a 33-yarder in the third. Petras completed 14 of 26 passes for 175 yards. The game, which was played in a steady rain, was finally affected by lightning in the second half. The first delay lasted 1 hour, 19 minutes. The delay was called at 8:37 p.m. with 10:02 left in the third quarter. - Iowa/AP College Football

TRACKING TOP DRAFT PROSPECTS - WEEK 2: 29. Jack Campbell, rJr, ILB, Iowa, 6-4, 246, 1,...Campbell won the weekly Lott Impact Award as he led the Hawkeyes with five tackles, seven assists and a safety as SDS was held to a mere 120 total yards (87 passing, 33 rushing). But Iowa fans were more focused on their own team's anemic offense, with 166 total yards including only 109 passing. They booed lustily. Campbell hit back in his post-game interview: "I hate to break it to you guys, but they're more than football players. They're brothers, sons, grandsons and I feel a lot of people lose sight of that. I just view them as a person, as a relationship, as a friend...No matter what, I'm always going to have their backs." Mmm. Sounds like Lott himself.

Previous week, No.33: Campbell was strong on and off the field in Iowa's 7-3 win over South Dakota State. During the game he led the Hawkeyes with five tackles, seven assists as SDS was held to a mere 120 total yards (87 passing, 33 rushing). But Iowa fans were more focused on their own team's anemic offense, with 166 total yards including only 109 passing. They booed lustily.

Mark Gronowski passed for a touchdown and ran for two more scores, Isaiah Davis had 25 carries for 112 yards and South Dakota State held on to beat UC Davis 24-22 Saturday night. Gronowski was 13-of-21 passing for 110 yards with two interceptions. He opened the scoring midway through the first quarter with a 1-yard TD run and capped an 11-play, 86-yard drive when he scored on a 5-yard run that made it 17-7 before Isaiah Gomez kicked a 36-yard field goal with 1 second left in the second quarter to pull UC Davis within a score at halftime.

Davis ran seven times for 42 yards during a 12-play, 75-yard drive that took nearly-6 minutes off the clock before Gronowski hit Tyler Feldkamp with a 7-yard touchdown pass - Feldkamp's only reception of the game - to make it 24-10 with 9 minutes to go. Miles Hastings completed 26 of 43 passes for 273 yards and three touchdowns for UC Davis (0-2). South Dakota State (1-1), which is ranked No. 3 in the FCS coaches poll following a 7-3 loss to Iowa in its opener, committed three turnovers and finished with just 250 total yards. - South Dakota State/AP College Football

09/06/22 - Jack Campbell, rJr/2023, Iowa, 6-5, 249 (DS#1 ILB) + More +

From five finalists for this week's Lott Impact Award our vote went to Iowa defensive tackle Jack Campbell over Penn State cornerback Joey Porter. Other finalists were LB Nick Herbig (2 sacks), Virginia LB Nick Jackson (14 tackles) and Pitt DT Calijah Kancey. The key is word "Impact." Porter was busy in a 35-31 win over Purdue with six PBUs, eight solo tackles and a fumble recovery. But Boilermaker QB Aidan O'Connell threw for 358 yards and wide receiver Charlie Jones was a Cooper Kupp look-alike with 12 catches, 153 yards and a touchdown.

Campbell made an impact on and off the field in Iowa's 7-3 win over South Dakota State. During the game he led the Hawkeyes with five tackles, seven assists and a safety as SDS was held to a mere 120 total yards (87 passing, 33 rushing). But Iowa fans were more focused on their own team's anemic offense, with 166 total yards including only 109 passing. They booed lustily. Campbell hit back in his post-game interview: "I hate to break it to you guys, but they're more than football players. They're brothers, sons, grandsons and I feel a lot of people lose sight of that.

Iowa's defense came up with two second-half safeties, and the Hawkeyes opened the season with a 7-3 win over South Dakota State on Saturday. Neither team could do much offensively. Iowa finished with 166 yards of offense, while South Dakota State had 120. The two teams combined for more punts (21) than first downs (16). The first safety came after Iowa's Tory Taylor had his punt downed at the South Dakota State 1-yard line in the third quarter. One play later, linebacker Jack Campbell grabbed running back Isaiah Davis after he took the handoff and brought him down one yard short of getting out of the end zone.

The second safety came in the fourth, when Iowa's Joe Evans sacked quarterback Mark Gronowski in the end zone on a second-and-11 play. Iowa took a 3-0 lead in the first quarter on Aaron Blom's 46-yard field goal. The only points for South Dakota State came on Hunter Dustman's 44-yard field goal with 20 seconds left before halftime. Iowa quarterback Spencer Petras completed 11 of 25 passes for 109 yards. Leshon Williams had 72 rushing yards. Gronowski was 10 of 26 passing for 87 yards. Davis had 18 carries for 50 yards. - Iowa/AP College Football
