Wisconsin made an emphatic statement, Tennessee and Mississippi snapped long losing streaks to Southeastern Conference rivals and Notre Dames got some serious problems.Observations, thoughts and takeaways from week four of the college football season:1. Butch Jones and Tennessee have their turning point victory . The 14th-ranked Volunteers showed some moxie that had been lacking from the program to rally back and snap an 11-game losing streak to Florida.2. Things could not be better set up for the Vols to get to Atlanta for the conference title game for the first time since 2007. Because the rest of the East is a mess.3. Now, Vols, about ending that nine-game losing streak to Alabama . Not happening without some seriously better offensive line play, but yall enjoy this for now.4. It would have been the most Les Miles victory in LSU history. Instead, the Tigers loss to Auburn puts Miles on the clock. After a brutal late-season stretch of games (Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas and Texas A&M) he is likely to be fighting for his job -- again.5. No. 11 Wisconsins sheer dominance of Michigan State in East Lansing was stunning and the Badgers have made an upgrade at quarterback with freshman Alex Hornibrook making his first start.6. The strange career arc of a defensive coordinator: Justin Wilcox was a budding star with Boise State. The star faded during stops and Tennessee, Washington and Southern California. Now at Wisconsin, Wilcox is in the process of rebuilding his reputation again.7. Wilcox inherited a stellar group of linebackers, including T.J. Watt, who had 2.5 sacks against the Spartans. Apparently, Watt has a brother who played in the NFL game last Thursday .8. It gets no easier for the Badgers, who are at No. 4 Michigan next week . The Wolverines made Penn State look like a bad MAC team at the Big House.9. The Nittany Lions are 0-7 against Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State under coach James Franklin and have been outscored 253-99. That gap is the reason why things are getting uncomfortable for Franklin in Happy Valley.10. Not so great a day for Florida State defensive coordinator Charles Kelly, even though the Seminoles beat USF 55-35. The Seminoles defense was ripped again. In three games against Ole Miss, Louisville and USF (all good offenses), Florida State is allowing 7.8 yards per play.11. Kelly still had a much better day than Notre Dame defensive coordinator Brian VanGorder . The Fighting Irish fell to 1/3 in a 38-35 loss to a Duke team that had scored 38 points combined in losses to Wake Forest and Northwestern. An in-season change by Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelly would not be shocking.12. Then again, Wake Forest is now 4-0 after beating Indiana. The Deacon Demons won six games in coach Dave Clawsons first two seasons.13. Never forget how good a job David Cutcliffe has done making Duke football relevant.14. When Oregon loses at home to Colorado , the direction of the program can reasonably be called into question. It was the first time since 2007 the Ducks lost consecutive games.15. Oh, and the Buffaloes used a backup quarterback.16. Add Oregons Brady Hoke to the list of defensive coordinators who had a bad, bad day.17. On the other side, the Buffs beat Oregon for the first time since being in the Pac-12 and by far this counts as coach Mike MacIntyres biggest victory with CU.18. Ole Miss snapped a 10-game losing streak that dated to 1997 to Georgia and showed why even with two losses the Rebels deserved to be ranked.19. Hes listed as a tight end for Ole Miss, but really Evan Engram is an oversized wide receiver who might have already locked up a spot on the AP All-America team. The senior has 26 catches for 397 yards and three touchdowns in four games.20. Even talented freshman quarterbacks such as Jacob Eason have their step-back games.21. After thumping East Carolina, Virginia Tech has outscored its last two opponents 103-17. It should be noted, the Hokies do not play Clemson, Florida State or Louisville from the ACCs Atlantic Division. First-year coach Justin Fuentes transition year could wind up in the conference title game -- wherever that will be.22. The Coastal race has crazy written all over it with North Carolina, Pitt and Miami also in contention. The Tar Heels scored the first big win by rallying past the Panthers .23. BYU has lost three straight games by a total of seven points after falling short in a comeback effort against West Virginia. Still to come for the Cougars is undefeated Toledo, Michigan State and Mississippi State.24. BYU quarterback Taysom Hill is not quite what he was before a couple of serious injuries, but hes still a fun player to watch .25. West Virginias offense looks good enough to keep the Mountaineers hanging around in the Big 12 race.Vapormax Plus White Ireland .com) - The Chicago Blackhawks aim for their third three-game winning streak of the season when they host the struggling Edmonton Oilers in Sundays battle at the United Center.

"The Sabres called for permission and I appreciate that, Im flattered, Dudley told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun of ESPN. Vapormax Plus Ireland . 4 Villanova with a 96-68 drubbing on Monday. Wragge hit 9-of-14 from behind the arc, matching Kyle Korvers school record for 3-pointers in a game set in 2003, as Creighton (16-3, 6-1 Big East broke a conference record with 21 treys in the rout.James Anderson hopes his vast experience can help him compensate for a drop in pace over the remaining years of his career.Anderson, who turned 34 over the weekend, returned to the Test team at Old Trafford with a performance that showed his control and skills remain undimmed by age or injury. But it was noticeable that his average bowling speed in the game - about 81mph - was some way down on his peak.While Anderson hopes he was simply rusty and that he will be able to generate more pace at Edgbaston, he accepts that he may be at the stage of his career where he has to rely more upon other attributes if he is to continue to flourish.I didnt feel like my speeds in Manchester were where they could be, Anderson said. I felt a bit like Matthew Hoggard at the end of his career when he slowed down a bit but his control was pretty good.With the skills I have, I can do a job even if my speeds did drop. With experience you can stay one step ahead in your head. It is like an old defender in football who might not have the pace of a quick striker but hes two steps ahead of him upstairs.Anderson has been sidelined by several injuries over the last year or so. After sustaining a side strain during the Edgbaston Ashes Test 12 months ago, he missed the first Test of the series in South Africa due to a calf injury and then the Lords Test against Pakistan due to a shoulder injury.But, after a modest tour of South Africa, he was back to something approaching his best at the start of this English summer. He claimed 21 wickets in the three Tests against Sri Lanka at an average of just 10.80 apiece - albeit in helpful conditions at times - and remains the No. 2-rated bowler in the ICCs rankings for Test cricket. He is just one ranking point behind Indias R Ashwin.He denies that the relative glut of injuries are necessarily a reflection of ageing and suggests that he could emulate Glenn McGrath and play until he is 37 years old.The way I feel at the moment, mentally, Ive still got a hunger to play the game and a hunger to take wickets and help my team win matches, Anderson said. As long as Ive got that hunger Im going to keep working, keep improving and keep working on my fitness and if I get to 37 then great. I just try to concentrate on staying fit for the next game.I thought I bowled well against Sri Lanka. Im not sure its the best Ive ever bowled but I felt in really good form and I just wanted to build on it, but the injury meant it wasnt possible.Fitness wise I keep working hard. My practice over the years has gone from searching for perfection to just doing as little as possible. The bare minimum. But when I do practise I try to make sure its absolute quality rather than going through the motions. If I dont practise much I make sure what I do do is to the highest quality possible.The England selectors took a lot of criticism for their decision not to risk Anderson in the first Test of tthis series at Lords.dddddddddddd Although he was fit to bowl in the nets ahead of the game and subsequently played in part of Lancashires Championship match against Durham, he now admits it was probably wise not to rush him back into the Test team before he had gained match fitness after his shoulder injury. He hopes that, having had that Championship game and the Test in Manchester, he should be somewhere near his best at Edgbaston.Looking back, without having had any game time before that first Test, it was probably wise to get some overs under my belt before I came back into the Test side, Anderson said. I think it was probably the right decision.There was some rustiness in Manchester. I bowled 20-odd overs at Southport after four weeks out of the game, and then at Lords with the weather before the game I only bowled six overs outside so there was a bit of rustiness. But now Ive got that match practice under my belt hopefully I can build on that and my speeds go up rather than down. The age Im at, four or five weeks without bowling shouldnt make me lose my form that much.As Anderson matures, so his role within the squad may start to change. It has been noticeable over recent months that Chris Woakes, in particular, has started to use the wobble-seam delivery demonstrated with such success by Anderson and, at times, started to hide his grip of the ball until the point of delivery so that batsmen cannot anticipate which way it will swing.But Anderson denied that Woakes is the obvious inheritor of his art and insisted that he is learning from Englands younger bowlers as much as the other way around.Chris has a lot of skills, but I dont see us as similar bowlers, Anderson said. I dont know why. Hes got more pace, hes got a lovely action, thats what hes got going for him, a nice repetitive action that will help him for the rest of his career. Im not forcing myself upon him.As a group of bowlers we are talking to each other all the time. We are trying in the nets to give each other bits of information that are going to be useful whether its on the opposition, tactics or specifics in skills and we all learn from each other.I learn from Chris Woakes, Ive learnt from Steven Finn and Stuart Broad, we all pass information round to each other, its a really open forum and I think thats how it should be. I think thats how teams get better.Poor weather in Birmingham means the Test pitch may lack just a little of the carry that England enjoyed when defeating Australia a year ago. But the surface is still expected to provide some assistance to seamers, especially on the first morning and with the new ball, and little encouragement for spinners. As a result, England look highly likely to go into the game with four seamers and Moeen Ali as their main spinner. ' ' '
