Gardner Minshew leads Washington State past Iowa State in Alamo Bowl, 28-26

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Gardner Minshew II threw two touchdown passes and ran for another score and Washington State stopped Iowa State on a late two-point conversion in a 28-26 victory in the Alamo Bowl on Friday night.

Minshew passed for 299 yards to help Washington State (11-2) set a school record for wins in a season.

Minshew’s biggest play came out of desperation and it set up the winning score.

Iowa State (8-5) rallied from down 21-10 at halftime to 21-20 early in the fourth quarter before running back David Montgomery fumbled on the Cyclones 30.
