Cricket Odds: Australia vs. South Africa Second-Test Betting Preview
- November 15, 2016
Any way you spin it, the numbers are macabre. But even though Lyon is Australia's wicket-taking spinner with 213 victims in 58 Tests since 2011, he could still miss out in Hobart. "His captaincy in this Test match was unimpressive". The tourists had done well to get to 242 all out after being 5-81 on day one but were looking down the barrel of a heavy defeat when Australia raced to 158 without loss on day two. (more...)

Odell Beckham Jr. shines under MNF lights
- November 15, 2016
The Giants honored two-time Super Bowl-winning coach Tom Coughlin, defensive end Justin Tuck and former general manager Ernie Accorsi into their Ring of Honor during a ceremony at halftime. Manning, who was 28 of 44 for 240 yards and two interceptions, said McAdoo told him during the break between the third and fourth quarters that the Giants were in four-down territory, so he knew they were going to go for the touchdown on three plays from the Bengals 9.

Bucs get running back Doug Martin back from hamstring injury
- November 15, 2016
The Bucs' defense has allowed a combined 1,087 yards of total offense and 73 points in the last two losses to the Oakland Raiders and Falcons , both at home. Among his competition for snaps are fellow running backs Mike James and Peyton Barber , though, so Martin may be used as the player that the team deemed worthy of a five-year, $35.7 million investment in the offseason.

Andy Murray determined to drown out distractions at ATP World Tour Finals
- November 15, 2016
After that I just felt very comfortable on the court. To his credit, he stayed in the match, trailing 3-2 before Djokovic went 4-2 ahead and then secured another significant break. Djokovic has finished four of the past five seasons at the No. 1-ranked player. The 23-year-old, the first Austrian to finish in the top 10 since Thomas Muster in 1997, produced some electrifying moments during a first-set tiebreaker that he snatched 12-10. (more...)

Nebraska Cornhuskers at Ohio State Buckeyes
- November 15, 2016
As in Ohio State's biggest margin of victory over a ranked team ever. Barrett was hard to sack, he kept his eyes downfield while on the move, and the passing attack was so successful, he only had to run the ball eight times. The Buckeye leaves and Scarlet "N" both call helmets to mind and underlie the conflict between the two - akin to classic photos of linemen squaring off before a snap. (more...)

Ravens rout winless Browns 28-7
- November 15, 2016
The 28 points were a season high for Baltimore . This is a really good look the Ravens should consider for the future... It's time grade the Ravens' Thursday night performance, beginning with the offense. Baltimore trailed at halftime before gaining control during a third quarter in which Flacco went 10 for 12 with two scores. Was anyone better off that some insane technicality that defied the vision of fans at home and the referee better off with the Browns starting at the one-yard ... (more...)

Hayward, Jazz add to Miami's woes, top Heat 102-91
- November 15, 2016
I'm glad I made a couple shots and all that is past me now. By then the Jazz were comfortably ahead with a 15-0 run and soon built an nearly insurmountable lead that would have required the Heat to play near ideal basketball with zero margin for error to get back into the game; too much to ask for with a squad in dire need of a go-to scorer like Gordon Hayward , who dominated the second half with his silky moves and finished with 25 points, nine rebounds and four assists.

In what is quickly becoming a charmed season for the Chiefs, coach Andy Reid and Co. kept right on rolling with a 20-17 victory at Carolina on Sunday. "I'm going to go block the next one". A 17-3 lead into the fourth quarter looked to be nearly a sure fire win for the Panthers, since the Chiefs offense struggled to extend drives or push the ball downfield all game. (more...)

United next face Arsenal at Old Trafford on Saturday and will be looking to close the gap to the Gunners who sit two points off the top of the English Premiership table.
