Northern Iowa will play host to Weber State of Og-den, Utah, in the first round of the NCAA Division I-AA football playoffs. Pending approval today from the Division I-AA football committee, the game will start at 6:30 p.m.

Saturday in the UNI-Dome. Northern Iowa has a 10-1 record and is on an eight-game winning streak after a late field goal provided an 18-17 victory over Eastern Illinois and sole possession of the Gateway Conference championship Saturday night. It is in the playoffs for the second straight time and for the fourth time since 1985. Weber State (8-3), a member of the Big Sky Conference, is in the playoffs for the first time in four years. In the final Division I-AA rankings, Northern Iowa was fourth, and Weber State was 15th.

Each Won One The two teams split their previous two meetings. Weber State beat Northern Iowa, 35-0, at Ogden in 1978, and the Panthers won at home, 31-10, in 1980. Northern Iowa won its only game against a Big Sky Conference team this season, beating then-No. 2 Idaho, 36-14, at Pocatello, Idaho, Sept. 28.

"We've got to defend our turf and play," Northern Iowa Coach Terry Allen said. "Our team feels, and I feel, that we're in the playoffs for a reason. We want to make it to Georgia for the championship." The Division I-AA championship game will be played in Statesboro, Top Passing Team Weber State led all Division I-AA teams in passing this season, averaging 389 yards a game. The Wildcats, who average 45 points a game, have record-setting Jamie Martin, a 6-foot 4-inch, 210-pound senior, at quarter- -back. Martin was a second-team all-America selection by The Associated Press last season, when he passed for 3,700 yards and 23 touchdowns and finished first in total offense as Weber State finished 5-6.

He also was second in balloting last year for the Walter Payton Award, signifying the top player in Division I-AA. This season, Martin threw for 4,125 yards and 35 touchdowns. Weber State broke three Division I-AA team records and Martin broke! three individual marks Saturday' night in a 60-41 victory against Idaho State. Among the marks wero Martin's 624 passing yards, his 643 yards of offense and his 47 completions. "It will be exciting," Allen said.

"I'm not sure if they're excited about playing Northern Iowa, but I'm sure they're excited about playing in a dome." Weber State does not appear to fancy playing on artificial turf, however. The Wildcats have won only 10 of their last 52 games played on artificial turf. Play at Home Several Northern Iowa players joined the coaching staff and fans Sunday in watching the reporting of playoff selections. The players look forward to being at home. "I think it's about time we got to show the Big Sky what the UNI-Dome is all about," defensive end Tony Monroe said.

Northern Iowa lost its first-round playoff game, 20-3, at Boise State last year. Ross Junge at quarterback, that was no longer true. "We heard this guy was an outstanding thrower," Harring said. Maybe the biggest obstacle in Simpson's path was Wisconsin-LaCrosse outside linebacker John Lauscher. He was an immovable figure in the defensive unit that had outstanding lateral pursuit and tackled Nauholz frequently on sweeps after gaining just 1 or 2 yards.

-OS 4i i Mil i in t. hi 0.1. ii V-r f.i' oil See for yourself what great deals on pre-owned cars await you every Tuesday in The By RON MALY Register Staff Writer Iowa City, la. Ty Detmer can wait. Iowa's football players are taking a short vacation from football.

"I'm giving them two weeks off," Coach Hayden Fry said. "After the second week, we'll start a running and conditioning program to begin getting ready for the Holiday Bowl. "We'll have a difficult time getting a practice in until the weekend after final semester examinations end on Dec. 20." Fry said he hopes to conduct workouts on Dec. 21 and Dec.

22 in Iowa City. The team leaves for San Diego, Dec 23. "We'll practice in Iowa City, providing our bubble doesn't collapse," Fry said. He was referring to the team's indoor workout facility, which collapsed last December. Consequently, the Hawkeyes weren't able to use it for early workouts for the Rose Bowl game.

Iowa, which completed Its regular season with a 10-1 record Saturday by beating Minnesota, 23-8, in the snow, plays Brigham Young in the Holiday Bowl at 7:10 p.m. CST on Dec. 30 in San Diego. Coach La Veil Edwards and his Brigham Young team will go to San Diego on Dec. 22.

Detmer, who won the 1990 Heisman Trophy, is Brigham Young's talented quarterback. In his career, he has passed for an NCAA-record 15,031 yards. Fry said he expects all of Iowa's injured players to be ready for the Holiday Bowl. A victory in the Holiday Bowl would give Iowa 11 triumphs in a season for the first time. Fiy's 1985 and 1987 teams each won 10 games.

The Hawkeyes have won seven 1 consecutive games for the first time since 1985. Iowa was ranked seventh in both the coaches' poll and The Associated Press poll of sports reporters. Detmer threw five touchdown passes and ran for a sixth score as Brigham Young whipped Utah, 48-17, Saturday to reach the Holiday Bowl, The Cougars, champions of the Western Athletic Conference, will take an 8-3-1 record to San Diego. Brigham Young wrapped up its 14th straight bowl appearance despite starting the season with consecutive losses to Florida State, UCLA and Penn State. Detmer, college football's career passing leader, surpassed the mark for the third consecutive season.

"I watched Brigham Young and San Diego State play to a 52-52 tie on television," linebacker John Derby said. "I was almost in shock with the way Brigham Young plays offense." However, the Holiday Bowl could be a classic matchup between Detmer and an Iowa defensive unit that has specialized in quarterback sacks this season. The Hawkeyes had four sacks against Minnesota, increasing their Big Ten record total to 56 for the season. Wells had two, and Derby and Jeff Nelson one each. Iowa totaled 36 sacks in its last six games.

Leroy Smith already had set a one-season individual record in the conference with 17 sacks. Iowa quarterback Matt Rodgers doesn't look at the Holiday Bowl as a personal duel with Detmer. "It isn't me against him," Rodgers said. "It's our defense against him." Rodgers increased his season passing yardage total to 2,054. It is the third-consecutive year he has passed for more than 2,000 yards.

For his career, he has 6,504. 9 minutes 1 1 seconds left in the game. But it wasn't because they lacked production. The rushing game was at its best in the final 20 minutes of the game and the play-action passing of Scott Driskell was a fine compliment. Nauholz led Simpson in rushing with 73 yards on 28 carries.

"(Simpson's players) had every opportunity of bagging it at the half, but they refused to let it happen," Williams said. "We came out and fought like wild men in that last half. "We got into what we do best but we didn't have enough time to continue that kind of assault." Driskell completed 1 1 of Simpson's 22 passes for 95 yards. Tailback Rob Sinclair completed his only pass of the game for 31 yards to flanker Bernie Stephenson for Simpson's first touchdown with 4:23 left in the first half. Harring said he expected Simpson to be primarily a running team.

But when Driskell replaced the injured Big plays doom Simpson, 28-13 Otart the holiday season with the Thanksgiving Day Register. We're stuffing your Turkey Day with lots of information about happenings, plus sale ads to your holiday shopping off to a great start. And we're garnishing the paper with three special sections full of news about famous people, winter recreational activities and popular annual pre-Christmas SIMPSON Continued from Page IS and wet early in the contest. The Redmen were pinned back by an aggressive Wisconsin-LaCrosse defense and a soggy portion of turf on the south end of the field; the result of a continuing effort to get snow and ice off the UNI-Dome roof. "They did a nice job of taking away certain things in our offense until the end of the third quarter," Simpson Coach Jim Williams said.

Simpson came out with some good defensive intensity in the second half. The Redmen held Richards and John Janke to a combined total of 53 yards in the second half and Wisconsin-LaCrosse kicker Matt Anderson missed two field-goal attempts. The Simpson offense was unable to generate any points after Trent Nauholz scored on a 1-yard run with toy survey. Pick it up and you'll see why the Thanksgiving Day Register is our biggest newspaper of the year. Don miss it Thursday, November 28.
