Mark Cavendish will wear the Tour de Frances famed yellow jersey for the first time in his career after winning stage one to Utah Beach.The Manxman outsprinted Marcel Kittel and Peter Sagan in a frantic finish to the 188km stage from Mont St Michel to claim the 27th Tour victory of his career, but the first on an opening stage.Cavendish, 31, is third all-time on the list of Tour stage winners, and is now only one behind Bernard Hinault for second place.Cavendish, riding for Team Dimension Data, was considered an outsider for victory here. Etixx-QuickSteps Kittel beat him to yellow on the opening stages in 2013 and 2014 -- with Cavendish crashing in the latter -- while Andre Greipel of Lotto Soudal had the better of him in last years Tour.But while those two had powerful leadout trains working for them they failed to get organised in a messy finish.After a late crash added to the confusion behind, Cavendish blew by world champion Sagan (Tinkoff) and comfortably finished clear of Kittel, his arms aloft as he savoured what is surely one of the most satisfying of his many Tour stage wins.The yellow jersey was one of the few missing from his extensive collection -- and could be a good omen at the start of a summer he also hopes will end with a first Olympic medal.Greipel came home fourth, while there was a top 10 finish for British Tour debutant Daniel McLay of Fortuneo-Vital Concept.A day for the sprinters, the stage also saw a couple of incidents which could have a big bearing on the general classification battle to come.Around 80km from home, Tinkoffs two-time Tour winner Alberto Contador suffered a nasty fall on the exit to a roundabout, and although he soon got back into the peloton the Spaniard needed extensive treatment on his shoulder.While Chris Froome finished safely in the pack, Team Sky team-mate Geraint Thomas was among those caught in the late crash.

AUSTIN, Texas -- The losses keep coming for Charlie Strong, no matter what promises were made in the past.For the third year in a row, Strongs Texas Longhorns have lost at least five games, rekindling questions of whether the program has improved enough for him to earn a fourth year and another $5 million, or if the losing is just too much for one of the nations blue-blood schools to stomach.I look at how were playing. I dont ever make excuses. There are no excuses, Strong said Monday. The losses are mounting. Theres games we should win and we had our opportunity.Rewind to November 2014, when the Longhorns were 6-5 in Strongs first season and he boldly predicted that five losses will never happen in this program again. Texas finished that year 6-7, then went 5-7 and missed the postseason in 2015.The dreaded five-loss threshold was crossed again over the weekend with a 24-20 home loss to No. 10 West Virginia, when the Longhorns never led and couldnt win despite forcing four turnovers. Texas (5-5, 3-4 Big 12) still isnt bowl eligible with two games left at Kansas on Saturday and at home against TCU the Friday after Thanksgiving.Strong was asked how he would sell that his team is making progress if he were in a job evaluation.You still have a football team thats still competing, still playing hard. Thats what you like to see happening, Strong said.There are tangible improvements he could have noted.Texas has two wins over top 10 opponents Notre Dame and Baylor, even though neither program is anywhere near that lofty status any more. The offense under first-year coordinator Sterlin Gilbert and led by powerhouse running back DOnta Foremman, who averages 178 yards per game, is a complete turnaround from the previous two seasons.dddddddddddd Other than Foreman, Texas best players have been sophomores and freshmen, including quarterback Shane Buechele, giving whoever coaches Texas in 2017 a bright future.Were a good team, Buechele said. Coach always says our record doesnt define us ... We can beat anybody.Even a defense that was bad early has improved once Strong took over the play-calling. The Longhorns rank among the best in the nation with 36 sacks.And gone are the blowouts of Strongs first two years, when his teams lost nine games by 18 points or more. Texas is 12 points from 8-2. They are also 12 points from 2-8.In other words, Strong is dancing on a razor-thin difference between dominant and disaster, only to find himself balancing on mediocre.Texas President Greg Fenves and athletic director Mike Perrin have publicly supported Strong all season. Fenves will look carefully at Strongs entire resume to decide if he gets a fourth season on a guaranteed five-year contract.The president will take a long look at it, Strong said. We still have two games left.Getting to a bowl game would be a good step forward, even if its still far short of the leap Texas fans -- and college football -- expected after a thrilling double-overtime win over Notre Dame in the season opener.We have to get to a bowl game, Strong said. Our seniors deserve to get to a bowl game.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 ' ' '
