10/30/10 week 9 updates

Week nine in the bcs is on its way and it just keeps getting better. This week some of the hot games to talk about are Michigan St. Vs. Iowa, Missouri vs. Nebraska and Utah vs. Airforce
Michigan St. is known for winning games and showing up when it counts. In this game Iowa who is ranked 18 game Michigan St who is ranked 5 a run for their money. The Iowa defense was flawless. They did not allow a single touch down till the fourth quarter.  Many believed that Michigan St was the better team but the truth is that Iowa is a tough football team and they play hard. The Iowa offense dominated with over 350 yards of offense and four touchdown. Fortunately Michigan St got to score one touchdown and missed the two point conversion to end the game 37-6 Iowa. The turnovers and mistakes is what really caused Michigan St to continue being undefeated.
The second game in this weeks presentation is Missouri vs. Nebraska. This game was very controversial for Nebraska fans because the quarterback for Missouri de-committed from the big red. So before the game came to mind the big red fans had a grudge toward B. Gabbert the starting quarterback for Missouri. Fortunately the Nebraska defense disrupted Gabbert enough to not let him get comfortable. Nebraska ended up scoring the first 24 points in the first quarter! Missouri got to get their first points in the second quarter, this was a 33 yard touchdown run by De’Vion Moore; the score was now 24-7 Nebraska. In the second half the teams seemed like they went to sleep. Missouri scored a touchdown and field goal in the third quarter while Nebraska score a touchdown of their own. The score at the end of the third and at the end of the game was 31-17 Nebraska. 
The last and final game is Utah vs. Air force. This was a game that was thought to have been a blow out, but the Air force academy being as strong as they are never gave up. At the end of the first it was 7-7. Both of the teams were playing good football and were not committing many mistakes. In the second quarter the Air Force score a field goal and Utah score a touchdown. Going into the half the score was 14-10 Utah.
In the second half it was like if each team took turns scoring in quarters. In the third it was all Utah; they scored two touchdowns and led the ballgame 28-10. In the fourth it was all Air Force; they scored two touchdowns but the rally was not enough and ended the game losing. The final score was 28-23 Utah. They remain undefeated and are playing very good football.
