e fumbled on its next snap.Both teams

  • February 27, 2019
    导出博客文章WACO, Texas -- Baylor coach Kim Mulkey never paid attention to the scoreboard.
    That was never going to be a concern for her second-ranked team against an
    overmatched opponent.Instead, the Lady Bears worked on improving themselves
    three days after their loss at third-ranked UConn.Beatrice Mompremier had 11
    points and 15 rebounds while playing only 15 minutes and Baylor overwhelmed
    Mississippi Valley State 101-36 on Sunday, when the Lady Bears worked on
    conditioning by pressing throughout the game and got to play against a zone
    defense like they will see throughout the season.Its very obvious that there are
    going to be games in non-conference that were going to be better than. But youve
    got to get better, Mulkey said. Were coming off of a very hard loss to swallow
    after watching the film for three hours against UConn, and just saw glaring
    things that we control and weve got to get better. Youve got to come into this
    game and never look at the scoreboard.The Lady Bears (3-1) scored the first
    seven points in the game and had a 17-point lead by the end of the first
    quarter. They were up 49-19 at halftime.Nina Davis scored 15 points for the Lady
    Bears, and the preseason AP All-American became only the sixth Baylor player to
    surpass 2,000 career points. The senior forward now has 2,001.Its definitely a
    blessing, of course, but it doesnt really mean much if I dont win a championship
    this year or we dont get to the Final Four, said Davis, whose first three
    seasons have all ended in the Elite Eight. Its a great milestone, but I want
    more.Alexis Prince added 11 points for Baylor and freshmen Natalie Chou and
    Juicy Landrum each had 10. Kalani Brown had 12 rebounds.Lauren Elliot had 11
    points to lead Mississippi Valley State (1-2), which had 28 turnovers that led
    to 35 Baylor points.Going from midway into the third and the entire fourth
    quarter, all my upperclassmen fouled out, Devilettes coach Jessica Kern said.
    So, I had five freshmen on the floor, and Im biting every nail I had left.
    Please get it over halfcourt.BIG PICTUREMiss. Valley St.: Already overmatched,
    Valley had two of its starters foul out of the game. The Devilettes shot only 24
    percent from the field (14 of 58) and were only 1 of 12 on 3-pointers.Baylor:
    Three days after the 72-61 loss at UConn, the Lady Bears had the expected
    lopsided victory and won their 44th consecutive home game. Playing the first of
    five games in an eight-day stretch, nobody played more than 22 minutes and 12 of
    the 13 players who got in the game scored.POLL IMPLICATIONSThe Lady Bears likely
    will drop at least one spot in the new poll Monday, since UConn was just behind
    them in the last Top 25.EXTENDED STREAKSBaylor won its 170th consecutive home
    games against non-ranked opponents since losing to Auburn in the WNIT final in
    Waco on April 4, 2003, and 155th straight home game vs. non-conference opponents
    in that same span. The Lady Bears have won their last 44 home games
    overall.MOTIVATED NINADavis was held scoreless against UConn, the only game she
    has ever played for Baylor without a point. I was very motivated, but its really
    not about me. Its about the overall team, Davis said. UConn loss, it was a tough
    one to swallow, but we cant think about the past. ... So, we just wanted to come
    out today and play more aggressive, play with more energy and just help
    everybody get a flow going. UP NEXTMississippi Valley State started a five-game
    road trip, but have a few days before playing Friday at Northwestern State in
    Louisiana.Baylor is home again Tuesday against Southeastern Louisiana, and then
    heads to Florida to play three straight days in the Gulf Coast Showcase next
    weekend. Minnesota Twins Jerseys .
    Detroit and Boston are deadlocked, 1-1, and Tigers manager Jim Leyland could be
    forgiven if he was caught rationalizing instead of dissecting how his club could
    blow a 5-1 lead late in Game 2.

    . Fellow centre Pavel Datsyuk remains out because of a

    one, the North Carolina State players took off running after the game ended,
    heading straight for the puddle at the 25-yard line.After a sloppy day of
    belly-flops and splashdowns, it was time to turn the field at Carter-Finley
    Stadium into a slip-and-slide.The Wolfpack beat Notre Dame 10-3 on Saturday in a
    game played in hurricane conditions and after the start of the second half was
    delayed because of lightning.This is a game to remember, N.C. State tight end
    Pharoah McKeever said. Ill probably remember it until the day I die. Raining,
    playing in a hurricane, not knowing if we were going to play or not. Lightning
    delay, in the locker room for 30 more minutes. ... And then after the game,
    doing field slides in the mud. This was just something to remember.A waterlogged
    field saturated by Hurricane Matthews heavy rains and wind-whipped by its gusts
    rendered both offenses ineffective, so N.C. State (4-1) beat the Fighting Irish
    (2-4) with special teams and defense -- with Dexter Wright returning a blocked
    punt for the go-ahead touchdown with 12:43 remaining.That TD came after McKeever
    fought through a block from Nic Weishar up the middle to deflect Tyler Newsomes
    punt. All Wright had to do was scoop up the ball -- not an easy task on a day
    like this -- and head for the end zone.I didnt even have to see the block,
    Wright said. I heard it.Notre Dame put together a late drive into the N.C. State
    red zone, but a shotgun snap on fourth-and-8 squibbed past DeShone Kizer with
    1:52 left and the Wolfpack ran out the clock.The teams combined for five
    turnovers, had a total of 10 fumbles and lost four of them. In a sequence that
    perfectly captured the day, Notre Dame coughed the ball up with about 10 minutes
    left in the second quarter on a bad snap -- only to get it right back when N.C.
    State fumbled on its next snap.Both teams turned the ball over in very difficult
    conditions, Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said. Both teams had a hard time moving
    the football. Both field-goal kickers managed to eke one over the uprights in
    sloppy conditions. We ggive up a flippin blocked punt for a touchdown, and thats
    the difference in this one.ddddddddddddTHE TAKEAWAYNotre Dame: The sloppy
    conditions helped the Fighting Irishs oft-criticized defense post its best
    numbers of the season. After allowing at least 489 total yards to every Power
    Five opponent theyve faced, they gave up just 198 yards in this one.But that
    went both ways. The potent Fighting Irish offense managed just 113 total yards
    on 64 offensive plays, and had just 41 yards through three quarters. Kizer was
    sacked five times and was just 9 of 26 for 54 yards -- the worst game of his
    career, aside from a 0-for-1 day against Texas last year.We dont have any
    excuses, Kelly said. We were atrocious offensively.N.C. State: The weather also
    shackled the Wolfpacks potent offense, which hung at least 30 points on every
    other opponent. QB Ryan Finley -- who completed nearly 73 percent of his passes
    in four games -- was just 5 of 12 for 27 yards with a rating of 60.6. He entered
    with a passer rating of 171.43 -- good for 11th nationally.But for N.C. State,
    the bottom line was this: With games against No. 3 Clemson, No. 7 Louisville,
    No. 23 Florida State, No. 17 North Carolina and No. 10 Miami still ahead on the
    schedule, this was a game the Wolfpack had to have.STAT LINEN.C. State was 2 of
    14 on third downs -- and was still better than the Fighting Irish, who were 1 of
    15.HE SAID ITSummer day in Michigan, I guess, -- N.C. State kicker and Wixom,
    Michigan, native Kyle Bambard on the conditions.UP NEXTNotre Dame: The Fighting
    Irish return home next week for their annual rivalry game with No. 15
    Stanford.N.C. State: The Wolfpack begin a brutal two-game Atlantic Division run
    on the road with a visit to Clemson next week, followed by a trip to
    Louisville.---Follow Joedy McCreary at http://twitter.com/joedyap . His work can
