IOWA CITY — Lord, Dan Sabers was born a gamblin’ man. The Iowa City High football coach pulled out the old fake punt despite being on his own 28-yard line in the first half last night.
Roll them dice, baby.
“I love fake punts,” Sabers said after his Little Hawks held off Cedar Rapids Washington, 35-14, in a Class 4A playoff quarterfinal at Bates Field. “Come on, I’ve got A.J. Derby back there. I mean, is it all that risky when you’ve got a man like that back there?”
