MADISON, Wis. -- The Wisconsin defense wont let up against inferior opponents.While other ranked teams are showing flaws in September against non-conference foes, the ninth-ranked Badgers plan to take advantage of what amounts to a two-week breather in their otherwise brutal schedule .On third downs, the defense has been as sturdy as a red brick wall. Wisconsin (2-0) has held its first two opponents to a combined 3 of 20 on third-down conversions.Weve started the first two games the way youd like, Chryst said. If you want to form your identity, then you have to do it again and again.Wisconsin held LSU to 2 of 10 on third downs in the season opener. Akron managed just one conversion in 10 tries last week.Next up on Saturday is Georgia State (0-2), which has lost to Ball State and Air Force this season by a combined score of 79-35.Seems like another blowout is in order for Wisconsin at Camp Randall Stadium this weekend.But as the Oklahoma State Sooners know , there are few gimmes anymore in college football.In contrast, Chryst had his team focused and prepared last week in a 54-10 rout of Akron , yet left room for improvement. Inside linebacker T.J. Edwards pointed to a few communication mix-ups against the Zips spread offense that will need to be cleaned up.Some little things that will hurt against big-time opponents will hurt against this weeks opponent, Edwards said. If were not on point with communication, theyll take advantage.Developing depth will be important, too, after the Badgers lost another key player on defense. Third cornerback Natrell Jamerson could be out 4-6 weeks after needing help to get off the field in the fourth quarter of the Akron game with a left leg injury.Freshman Caesar Williams could get more playing time behind top two corners Sojourn Shelton and Derrick Tindal. A similar situation arose last week after starting inside linebacker Chris Orr was lost for the season after the first defensive play in the LSU game with a right knee injury.Edwards, who had a foot injury, returned last week to help fill that hole.You never want to see anyone go down, Edwards said . I know those guys that are willing step in for (Jamerson) for as long as needs to recover. So no, it will be the same effect, Im happy we can say that about our defense.Coming off a promising freshman season in which he had a team-high 84 tackles, Edwards is gradually getting back up to speed. Big Ten play starts on Sept. 24 at Michigan State.Fortunately for the Badgers, the rest of the defense has held up exceptionally well. Wisconsins front seven is dominating up front, and the secondary has reaped the rewards, having forced four of Wisconsins five turnovers.The Badgers are pretty good at stopping opponents the old fashioned way, too.It always comes down to when theres an opportunity, you have to make a play, a sack or a stop, Chryst said. I think a lot of it has been weve been pretty good on first and second downs.NOTE: Chryst said there were no lingering concerns with RB Corey Clement, who left the win over Akron late in the second quarter after rolling his left ankle. The Badgers were up by 20 points at halftime and didnt need Clement in the second half anyway. The senior is healthy enough that he has replaced Jamerson as the top option to return kicks on the depth chart. I anticipate him going to work, practicing, Chryst said. Clement needs 86 yards rushing to become the 16th player in school history to run for 2,000 in his career.---Online: AP College Football site: http://collegefootball.ap.org/---Follow Genaro Armas at: https://twitter.com/GArmasAPBrad Keller Jersey .H. -- Matt Kenseth made it 2 for 2 in the Chase, holding off teammate Kyle Busch to win Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Larry Gura Jersey . Brad Jacobs and his Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., team took control of the game early. https://www.cheaproyals.com/1437a-brett-phillips-jersey-royals.html . And when it opened, every player was at his stall. Thats a sure sign that a team is in a slump and is searching for answers. "Its embarrassing to be at home and play the way we did," said defenceman Josh Gorges. Bud Black Jersey . Aduriz headed home Markel Susaetas cross in the sixth minute to open the scoring at San Mames Stadium. He bettered that with a long-range blast that went in off the goal frame in the 18th, and converted a penalty in the 72nd after Diego Mainz was sent off for fouling Aduriz with only the goalkeeper to beat. Darrell Porter Jersey . Supported by three-run homers from Jayson Werth and Wilson Ramos, the young right-hander went seven strong innings in the Washington Nationals 8-4 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday night. PARADISE ISLANDS, Bahamas -- Paola Moreno and Lindsey Wright took the same, simple approach on the winding road through the Ocean Club in the Bahamas LPGA Classic. They didnt care that the makeshift course was only 12 holes because of flooding. They didnt pay attention to a routing that had them going from the back nine to the front nine and then repeating the process. And it didnt bother them that they played only 24 holes in two days. "Its different," Moreno said Saturday. "Im not going to say its usual. But I cant control the holes that they want us to play. The only thing that I really want to do is put myself out there and bring the best attitude and my A game, hopefully." Thats worked beautifully so far for the Colombian. Moreno kept bogeys off her jumbled scorecard for the second straight day for a 4-under 41, giving her a one-shot lead over Wright going into the final, 12-hole round. Wright, who played earlier Saturday, had seven birdies for a 7-under 38. "I am just focused on what I can control right now," said Moreno, who was at 9-under 81. "The only thing that matters right now is the first tee shot on No. 1 -- or No. 10, whatever hole were playing tomorrow. And Im just excited to be there." Maude-Aimee LeBlanc of Sherbrooke, Que., was the top Canadian. She was tied for 12th at 5-under 85 after shooting 44 in the second round. Stephanie Sherlock of Barrie, Ont., (43) was tied for 44th at 2 under; Torontos Rebecca Lee-Bentham (44), Sara-Maude Juneau of Fossambault, Que., (45) and Hamiltons Alena Sharp (50) were tied for 84th at 1 over; Charlottetowns Lorie Kane (42) was tied for 92nd at 2 over; and Sue Kim of Langley, B.C., (49) was tied for 136th at 7 over. Cristie Kerr did enough to at least get in range. She was among 10 players within three shots of the lead, though they have six fewer holes to make up ground. Because of severe flooding earlier in the week on the Ocean Club, the LPGA Tour is using the holes available. In this case, its a 12-hole course that starts on the back nine at No. 10, jumps over to the front nine for four holes that are out of order, heads over to a stretch on the back nine and finishes along the ocean at No. 8. The final round now goes from a par 45 to a par 47. The par-5 18th hole is in good enough shape to be playing as the closing hole, giving this inaugural event at least some semblance of normality. It will replace No. 4, which also is a par 5 but has been played as a par 3 because of a bunker caved in by the rain. The best thing Moreno achieved on a sun-filled Saturday -- at least as far as the tournament was concerned -- was finishing. It was critical for all the players to finish two rounds (24 holes) going into the final round or it would have been unlikely to complete 36 holes by Sunday to make this official. The LPGA Tour was determined to play an official eevent for Pure Silk and the Bahamas Tourism Ministry, the two title sponsors of this new tournament.dddddddddddd Stacy Lewis, the No. 2 player, was trying to get close to the leaders and isnt sure she did enough. Two late birdies gave her a 3-under 42, though she was five shots behind. That feels like a larger deficit given the shortened course. "Its strange," Lewis said. "By the time you get into a rhythm, the round is over. You can make a lot of birdies. You just have to get off to a good start." Wright had the kind of round that Lewis and so many others could use on Sunday. The Australian didnt realize she finished her round with six straight 3s on her scorecard. She could name the holes where she made her seven birdies until calling her caddie over for help. She just knows she played some pretty good golf. "I didnt know what was going on," Wright said. "I just play. Thats probably how we should do it all the time." Inbee Park played a game that didnt resemble the No. 1 player in the world, at least not the closing holes. She played the last four holes in 8 over. It started when she was left of the 14th green (the ninth hole) when she went to play a chip and her caddie realized he left the club on an adjacent par 3. She barely reached the green and made bogey. Then, she fanned her tee shot on the par-3 second (No. 10) some 30 yards right of the green. It really turned ugly on the next par 3, with a lake that should not have come into play with a back pin. Park hit 4-iron twice into the water, coming up some 40 yards short of the flag. She finally made quintuple-bogey 8. Park finished with a fairway metal that she snap-hooked into the ocean. The Ocean Club appears to have nearly recovered, though a few holes arent suitable to play. And because there is no cut this week -- the LPGA Tour felt that would be unfair after only 24 holes -- the decision was to keep it at 12 holes to make sure everyone finished. Going to Monday wasnt an option because several players have U.S Womens Open qualifying early next week. "Look, the way I see it, its the same for everyone," Wright said. "Theres always complaining. You just cant have a tournament without that. I think its a shame, because the course on Monday, Tuesday, it was brilliant. Its a shame were playing 12 holes, but I think for the Bahamas and for Pure Silk, its the right thing to do. Were here to play golf. Were not here to party. Do that early on in the week." Kerr is coming off a win two weeks ago in Kingsmill and hopes to keep the momentum going as the tour heads into a big part of the season. There are three majors in the next few months, capped by a return to St. Andrews. "It feels like a shootout," Kerr said. "We only have 12 holes every day, and youve got to go as low as you can. I did my job today." ' ' '
