NCAA Division II and III football playoffs: Minnesota State Mankato stuns Augustana in final minutes
COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) — Once Iowa's running game started rolling, it never really stopped. That meant a bigger workload than ever for Kaleb Johnson. Johnson rushed for 164 yards and a touchdown on a career-high 35 carries, and Kamari Moulton scored on a 68-yard run in the fourth quarter to help Iowa outlast Maryland 29-13 on Saturday. “Doesn't take a Knute Rockne to figure this one out,” Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said. "Coming in we wanted to be able to run the football. That's what we do best." Johnson scored from 2 yards out in the second quarter for his 21st rushing touchdown of the season, and the Hawkeyes (7-4, 5-3 Big Ten) rebounded from their loss to UCLA in their previous game. Maryland (4-7, 1-7) needed to win its final two regular-season games to reach six wins and bowl eligibility, but the Terrapins were dominated in the first half and eventually fell behind 16-0. Drew Stevens made five field goals for Iowa, including kicks from 54 yards in the second quarter, then 50 and 49 in the third. Iowa, which does not exactly push the tempo, ran 46 offensive plays in the first half. The Hawkeyes had the ball for over six minutes on each of their first three possessions, which resulted in a fumble, a field goal and then Johnson's TD. “I thought the first half really played out about as well as we could outside the turnover,” said Ferentz, whose son Brian is an offensive assistant at Maryland. “Controlling the ball, keeping it on the ground and trying to keep their quarterback off the field.” Maryland replaced quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. with backup MJ Morris after two fruitless possessions, but the Terps still trailed 13-0 at halftime. Edwards went back in and led Maryland all the way to the Iowa 3 in the third quarter, but he was injured in a collision with defensive back Xavier Nwankpa. “The kid's a warrior. He's been banged up all year,” Terps coach Mike Locksley said. “I very rarely come in and talk about injuries because those are excuses and I'm not about that. Billy came to me and said, ‘Coach, I want to try to go.’ And he really gave us a chance." Morris came in and capped that drive with an 8-yard scoring pass to Tai Felton that made it 16-6, but a 2-point conversion was unsuccessful. A 12-yard touchdown strike from Morris to Felton made it 19-13 with 11:05 to play, but Iowa answered with Moulton's big run less than two minutes later. Iowa: Quarterback Jackson Stratton, a walk-on transfer from Colorado State, wasn't asked to do much as the Hawkeyes were able to lean on the running game. And credit Iowa's defense for an excellent first half that helped build a big enough lead. Maryland: No matter how obvious Iowa's plan was, the Terps couldn't do much to stop it. Iowa finished with 268 yards rushing on 58 attempts. Ferentz now has 203 career victories as Iowa's head coach. Only Woody Hayes (205) has more in Big Ten history. Johnson looked plenty motivated after he produced just 49 yards rushing against UCLA. He also had extra time to rest since Iowa was off last weekend. “That 49 yards. I was mad at myself a little bit," he said. "I was being too soft. I wasn’t running as hard as I could.” Iowa quarterback Cade McNamara hasn't played since entering concussion protocol after a game late last month. Ferentz urged fans to support McNamara, who since 2022 has dealt with leg, quad and knee problems in addition to his latest issue. “Sometimes you've got to step back and have some compassion for the people that are out competing,” Ferentz said. "You think about the last three years for this guy. He has had a rough go." Iowa: Hosts Nebraska on Friday. Maryland: At Penn State on Saturday.

Why some brewing companies are producing more hop-forward ales and light-bodied lagersCiting the Maharashtra and Jharkhand Assembly election results, Union Minister for Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution Pralhad Joshi has said that regional parties will also sink if they decide to go with the Congress. Speaking to presspersons in Hubballi on Saturday, Mr. Joshi said that the Congress has already lost its existence. “The Congress is a sinking ship and those who hold its hand will also sink along with it. In Maharashtra, the Congress has suffered a crushing defeat and the regional parties that aligned with it have also sunk,” he said. He said that while it is natural that loss and victory are part of politics, the Congress has lost its very existence. “The Congress has now brought down Sharad Pawar’s NCP and Uddhav Thackeray’s Shiv Sena. The JMM has just escaped from being sunk by the Congress,” he said. Admitting that has been a debacle for the BJP in Jharkhand, he said that the BJP gave a tough fight to the Congress alliance there. Mr. Joshi also said that the Assembly elections in Maharashtra have once again proved that Rahul Gandhi is a failed leader. Sonia Gandhi is trying to fly the Congress aeroplane by installing a new engine but it has again failed to take off. Her attempts to launch Rahul Gandhi too have failed again, he said. ‘Ruling party winning natural’ Commenting on the victory of the Congress in the Karnataka bypolls, Mr. Joshi said that it is natural for the electorate to elect the ruling party members during byelections. The people usually vote for the ruling party in anticipation of additional allocation of funds for development. However, in this elections, money power and distribution of liquor have also played a prominent role, he added. The fact that Ministers and MLAs camped and worked at the gram panchayat level indicates the misuse of administration for the sake of winning the elections, he said and added that the party will introspect and contemplate on the reasons for the defeat in the byelections.

Moms for Liberty co-founder Tiffany Justice weighs in on President-elect Donald Trump's proposal to end the federal Department of Education and how the department could be improved if kept in place. Sonny Hostin may have unveiled the real reason why the Democrats lost the election, but she had it all wrong. She recently said on "The View," that "What we did not have is white women, who voted about 52% for Donald Trump – uneducated white women is my understanding." One of the realities of why the Democrats lost this election in the landslide is thinking they have a monopoly on defining what being " educated " means in America today and here’s the reality of what this word means in America today. Let’s examine this. The Latin root of the word educate is "ex-ducere": to lead out of. The idea is that the educational process leads you out of your former self into a new self: more knowledgeable, more skilled, wiser, and more experienced. Nowhere in this definition does it say that if you get a diploma, especially a college diploma, that you are more educated. But the democrats have increasingly defined the notion of being educated in America to be inextricably linked with getting a four-year college education. Mind you, that America has plenty of educated derelicts and plenty of kids who graduate college without a clue what they want to do and end up being a Starbucks’ barista while they figure it out. I'M A BLACK PH.D. AND HERE'S WHY I LEFT ACADEMIA What does being educated really mean? There are four buckets. Formal Education Reading, writing and arithmetic, some would say. Getting a formal education involves following a curriculum designed to impart knowledge, develop skills and instill values across various disciplines. Formal education equips individuals with foundational academic and professional competencies and some would argue college is more important to learn how to ‘adult’ on your own than the actual courses themselves. Formal education serves as a pathway for personal growth and career opportunities for many. Street Smarts Street smarts are about practical intelligence and survival skills honed through real-world experience. This form of smarts involves quick thinking, resourcefulness and the ability to navigate challenging or unfamiliar environments. Street-smart individuals excel in making snap judgments, solving problems on the go and handling difficult situations. They may lack academic credentials but often have strong instincts and the ability to read people and situations accurately. Street smarts are particularly useful in unpredictable, high-pressure scenarios. There are many entrepreneurs in America who never graduated college and many who didn’t graduate high school, yet they have built multi-million dollar businesses, creating jobs, giving back to their communities and helping the tax base. Their education in some ways may be much more pragmatic some would argue vs. getting a college diploma. CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION Social intelligence Social smarts focus on interpersonal skills and understanding human behavior. People with social smarts excel in communication, empathy and building relationships. They are adept at reading social cues, resolving conflicts and fostering teamwork. Social smarts are essential in roles requiring collaboration, leadership and influence. Unlike book or street smarts, social intelligence bridges cognitive and emotional domains, making it crucial in both professional and personal settings. Adversity Quotient This is fourth area of education many people never talk about in America. It’s in part why Donald Trump won the election, because he excels in overcoming adversity. Adversity Quotient (AQ) refers to an individual’s ability to face, endure and overcome challenges or difficult situations. It measures how well someone responds to adversity, including their resilience, adaptability and capacity to persevere in tough circumstances. This type of education is a learned skill and one that we would often define with the term ‘develops character.’ CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP All of this makes you wonder, has the Democratic Party become one that is largely and disproportionately steered by liberal college-educated people? And what’s the consequence we saw in this election with this demographic shift? The liberal and progressive college-educated dominance over the Democratic Party agenda alienated at least some socially conservative working-class nonwhites, thereby driving a small but electorally consequential subset of them into the arms of Republican Party candidates and into the arms of winning this election. Buyer beware, being educated in America isn’t defined by a diploma.

ISTANBUL Recent International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrants for Israel's prime minister and former defense chief are a "turning point in the human history," Türkiye's parliament speaker said on Saturday. "I hope Netanyahu and his gang are arrested wherever they go as soon as possible and held accountable at the International Criminal Court," said Numan Kurtulmus at an event in the Turkish metropolis Istanbul. The ICC announced in a landmark move Thursday that it issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Kurtulmus noted that many countries party to the ICC's founding Rome Statute — even those “where the Zionist lobby is very powerful” — have declared their intent to arrest Netanyahu and Gallant if they enter their territories. “These decisions have undoubtedly emerged as a result of the honorable resistance put forth by the humanity front and their struggle for the Palestinian cause, for justice and fairness, and for the establishment of a world worthy of human dignity,” he said. The decision to issue the warrants reflect that “human dignity and human conscience have started to win,” noted Kurtulmus, predicting that radical changes would take place in the emerging multi-polar world. “It is no longer possible for a country or a region to rule and direct the world alone. We are entering a period in which a new power struggle and new power equations are being established, in which more than one power can be effective in all geographical regions of the world,” he said. “Hopefully, Türkiye will be one of the leading countries of this new era,” Kurtulmus said, underlining the country's central position amid the conflict zones in its region. Israel has launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip following a cross-border attack by the Palestinian group Hamas in October last year, killing more than 44,000 people, most of them women and children, and injuring over 104,000. It has also engaged in cross-border warfare with Lebanon, launching an air campaign in late September against what it claims are Hezbollah targets. Over 3,600 people in Lebanon have been killed, with more than 15,300 injured and over a million displaced since last October, according to Lebanese health authorities. The ICC announced in a landmark move on Thursday that it issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on Gaza.None
