Rutgers downs Iowa State in Pinstripe Bowl
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 01 - 01 - 2012

Rutgers quarterback Chas Dodd hit Brandon Coleman for an 86-yard touchdown pass late in the fourth quarter to secure a 27-13 win over Iowa State Friday in college football's Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium.
Jawan Jamison ran for two scores and finished with 134 yards on 27 carries for the Scarlet Knights (9-4), whose bowl-winning streak reached five. Rutgers, which played in only one bowl game before 2005, is 5-1 in the postseason under coach Greg Schiano.
Iowa State's Steele Jantz took over for Jared Barnett at quarterback in the second quarter and helped pull the Cyclones (6-7) within 20-13 on Jeff Woody's 20-yard touchdown run with 10:00 left.
After an exchange of punts left Rutgers deep in its own end, Dodd went deep to Coleman. He went over the shorter cornerback, then outran him to the end zone to make it 27-13 with 5:47 left.
Iowa State had jumped out to a 6-0 lead in the first quarter, with Zach Guyer kicking field goals of 40 and 46 yards on the Cyclones' first two possessions.
Armed Forces Bowl
Brigham Young 24, Tulsa 21: In Dallas, Riley Nelson threw three touchdown passes to Cody Hoffman, the last with 11 seconds left, as Brigham Young beat Tulsa in the Armed Forces Bowl for another 10-win season.
With no timeouts and the ball at the 2-yard line, the Cougars hurried up to the line. Nelson faked a spike that would have stopped the clock and instead threw to Hoffman in the end zone. Hoffman had eight catches for 122 yards.
The Cougars (10-3) won 10 games for the fifth time in Bronco Mendenhall's seven seasons as coach.
G.J. Kinne threw three TD passes for Tulsa (8-5), including a 30-yarder to Bryan Burnham with 10:42 left for a 21-17 lead.
BYU needed 12 plays to go 48 yards on its last drive. Nelson converted a fourth-and-9 with a 14-yard scramble and later ran 8 yards on third-and-5.
Music City Bowl
Mississippi State 23, Wake Forest 17: In Nashville, Vick Ballard ran for a career-high 180 yards and two touchdowns to lead Mississippi State over Wake Forest in the Music City Bowl — the Bulldogs' fifth straight bowl victory and second consecutive under coach Dan Mullen.
The Bulldogs (7-6) capped a season that started with high expectations by winning consecutive bowls for only the second time in school history and first since 1999-2000.
Mississippi State overcame four turnovers thanks to six sacks — its highest total since piling up seven in a win over Florida in 2000.
Wake Forest (6-7) of the Atlantic Coast Conference finished the season having lost five of their last six games.
