Spinners Help India Triumph Over England in Second Test
- November 29, 2016
After conceding a 200-run deficit in the first innings, England will take heart from their spirited bowling second time around. Resuming their second innings on 67-2, England were never going to go for the target of 405 on a pitch that wasn't the worst we have seen in India in the recent past, but had a lot of uneven bounce nevertheless.

Michael Cheika Names Strong Australian Team To Face Ireland
- November 29, 2016
Forget about the margins or the point scoring, it's more about how we play, the attitude we show, the intensity we bring and then the skills obviously inside of that. Conscious of the heavy workload of some players, Cheika opted to rest the likes of captain Stephen Moore and vice-captain Michael Hooper, as well as stars Israel Folau and Bernard Foley. (more...)

Chelsea go top of the Premier League with sixth straight win
- November 29, 2016
When you are winning only 1-0 you have to pay attention until the end, because Middlesbrough could have got a draw, like (they managed) against City. Conte's decision to revert back to his preferred three-man defense has worked wonders, with The Blues now winning six consecutive Premier League games and keeping six clean sheets in the process.

Zinedine Zidane says Benzema can start in Real Madrid derby
- November 29, 2016
Once the capital's dominant team, Madrid hasn't beaten Atletico in six consecutive league derbies, although it has topped its cross-town rival in two Champions League finals during that stretch. "We were looking for more penetration and aerial play", added Simeone. The French striker isn't ready enough to complete the game and will come on late in the game if Madrid need to change the course of the game. (more...)

LSU pulled offer to Tom Herman after he backtracked
- November 29, 2016
Ed Orgeron is the 33rd head coach in LSU's football history. Orgeron took over head coaching duties from former coach Les Miles when the latter was sacked after LSU's 2-2 start that featured losses to Wisconsin and Auburn. I got that team to play the way I got my defensive lines to play. LSU finished the 2016 regular season with a 7-4 overall record and a 5-3 record in conference play, but hope Orgeron can turn the corner and lead the program back to an SEC title game for the first time ...

Bills Snap Losing Streak Against Bengals
- November 29, 2016
I'm way more comfortable with helping Mike get corrected and through this and him having the confidence that we expect from him and that we really have in him. Green is the Bengals leading receiver this season with 66 catches, 964 receiving yards and four touchdowns . Lewis did not give a timetable for Green's return, but said he should be back by the end of the season. (more...)

Status quo in CFP rankings this week -- but chaos still could ensue
- November 29, 2016
Unless, of course, the goal is to rile up everybody (or as they would put it, helping to drive the conversation about college football). I think last year, even though Wednesday gotten as far as 12-1, and playing in that playoff game (a 38-0 loss to eventual national champion Alabama) I think it stung a little bit when we didnt win, as opposed to the last four years, when we had won our bowl games..

Arsene Wenger : We Lacked Creativity Against PSG
- November 29, 2016
We have 90% chance to finish second, and we wanted to finish first. The Frenchman also believed Arsenal were dominant for spells during the match but did concede the team have lost their "winning momentum" in recent games. Arsenal were on the verge on progressing as pool winners as Olivier Giroud's penalty and Marco Verratti's calamitous own-goal cancelled out Edinson Cavani's opener. (more...)

- November 29, 2016
He was 6-2 as USC's interim coach in 2013 but did not get the permanent job. The Tigers went 5-2 under Orgeron, finishing off the regular season with an emphatic win over Texas A&M. The most prominent interim success story in recent years was Dabo Swinney, who was promoted from receivers coach to head coach at Clemson to replace Tommy Bowden and has turned Clemson into a national power.

Guardiola will not use Toure at centre-back despite Kompany blow
- November 29, 2016
And Guardiola says he is very satisfied that City are still with the leaders after the rigorous demands of the Champions League. "He played awesome so we have other options to solve that problem". "At Crystal Palace, for example [John] Stones, [Ilkay] Gundogan and David Silva didn't play", he said, somewhat erroneously given Silva featured as a second-half substitute . (more...)

But with so little to build on from these recent losses, there is a real feeling that Klinsmann might be losing this team. "So anybody who thinks that is sorely mistaken". The Hertha Berlin centre-half made a awful hash of clearing a long ball forward and Campbell pounced to race clean through on goal, calmly tucking away past Guzan. (more...)

Bucs-Chiefs report card: Tampa Bay excels in every way
- November 29, 2016
Lets be real. The Kansas City Chiefs are a playoff team, and their efforts the past few weeks have been more about injuries, than a lack of talent. "I lost vision of the safety down there - I've got to see it", Smith explained. However, last month, following the team's bye week, the Chiefs activated Houston. They gained 64, and then Conte intercepted Smith's pass. Peters (hip pointer), starting defensive tackle Jaye Howard (knee) and wide receiver Jeremy Maclin (groin) were inactive. (more...)
