LUBBOCK, Texas -- After facing the first real test of Chris Beards coaching tenure at Texas Tech, the Red Raiders quickly separated from Eastern Kentucky late in a 90-71 win Saturday behind 20 points and seven rebounds from Shadell Millinghaus.Justin Gray added 17 points and six rebounds for Texas Tech. Aaron Ross finished with 16 points, including making all 10 of his free throws.As a competitor, of course I dont want to see us get out to that kind of a start, Beard said. But, I look forward to adversity.The Red Raiders have started 3-0 for the first time since 2012-13 and have won 22 consecutive home nonconference games.Asante Gist led Eastern Kentucky with 21 points and three assists. Jayle Babb-Harrison had 14 points and Nick Mayo and Zach Charles scored 13 points apiece.Early in the first half, the Colonels (1-3) maintained leads of 19-9 and 27-12 before being held scoreless for a 4:56 stretch.I was proud of the way we got out of the gates quickly, especially after a long day of travel, Eastern Kentucky coach Dan McHale said. We let (Texas Tech) start carving us up defensively. And they got easy looks. And then the floodgates opened a little bit. We were still in control for most of the first half.During that cold spell, Texas Tech (3-0) tied the game and finished the first half with a 46-41 lead.With the game tied 57-57 early in the second half, Texas Tech took a 10-point lead when Eastern Kentucky had a scoring drought that lasted roughly five minutes.Eastern Kentucky, which made 12 3-pointers, shot 36.8 percent from the floor.After 24 points off turnovers in its last game against North Texas, the Red Raiders scored 19 points off turnovers.Relentless pursuit, Gray said. Not quitting. Not giving up. And just playing extra hard on the defensive end. Trying to push as much as we can in transition once we get that stop. And just making smart choices on offense.BIG PICTUREEastern Kentucky: Two of Eastern Kentuckys standout underclassmen have continued to perform well. Gist, a freshman, started 4 for 5 from 3-point range. Mayo, the Ohio Valley Conference Freshman of the Year last season, had nine second-half points.I think (Mayo) is as good as advertised, Beard said. I know what a pro looks like when I see it. Hell be a guy that plays after college. To me, hes a guy that can start on most BCS teams.Texas Tech: The Red Raiders have been without standout forward Norense Odiase for the third straight game. In a press conference this week, Beard said the timetable for Odiases return is potentially four to five weeks. Graduate transfer Anthony Livingston (11 points, six rebounds) has started and provided quality frontcourt minutes.UP NEXTEastern Kentucky: Visits Idaho State Tuesday afternoon. In November, Eastern Kentucky faces teams from six states -- North Carolina, Alabama, Texas, Idaho, Kentucky and Indiana.Texas Tech: Traveling to Mexico for the Cancun Challenge tournament, which starts Tuesday. It will face Auburn and Purdue or Utah State.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Broncos quarterback Trevor Siemian will throw his first pass as a pro Thursday night when the Super Bowl champs kick off the 2016 season against the Carolina Panthers.Despite his inexperience, hell have the full playbook at his disposal.He can carry a lot of information in a short period of time, coach Gary Kubiak said Sunday. Let me explain: he can go in that meeting room for two hours in the morning, walk out here at 11:30 and take it to the field. You cant teach that. Guys can handle it or they cant.So, hes handling a lot of information, handling the team, practiced well today. We need to help Trevor all we can but I know Trevors ready to do his part.Siemian isnt the only new face in Denvers starting lineup.Peyton Manning and five other offensive starters from the Broncos 24-10 win over Carolina in Super Bowl 50 are no longer on the roster, a radical makeover for a champion. Neither is Brock Osweiler, who bolted to the Texans in free agency.The only players returning to their same spots on offense are center Matt Paradis, running back C.J. Anderson and receivers Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas. Another, Michael Schofield, lost his right tackle job to free agent Donald Stephenson but will start at right guard because of injuries to Ty Sambrailo (elbow) and Darrion Weems (concussion).Two years after revamping his defense in the rubble of Seattles Super Bowl demolition of Denver, GM John Elway rebuilt his offense in the wake of his teams triumph.While Elway spent months searching for Mannings successor this offseason, only to find him already on the roster, the Broncos boss jettisoned both tight ends and three O-linemen who started in the Super Bowl.Vernon Davis and Owen Daniels were replaced by Virgil Green and free agent John Phillips.Ryan Harris, Lou Vasquez and Evan Mathis are no longer protecting the passer, replaced by Russell Okung, Max Garcia and Stephenson.Elway also released Ronnie Hillman, the teams leading rusher last season but a non-factor in the Super Bowl, where Anderson rumbled for 90 yards and Denvers only offensive touchdown following Von Millers second sack-strip of Cam Newton.Elway said he believes the offense can carry more of its weight this year after relying so heavily on Denvers destructive defense to bring home the franchises third Lombardi Trophy.Im excited about offense, Elway said. Weree better in the offensive line, especially as we get healthier.dddddddddddd. Running back, I think were deeper at running back. Our receivers are still good. I think we have a chance to be better offensively with a good balanced attack and have Trevor come in, play well and do the things that he can do.Last year, the Broncos put their 39-year-old QB in the pistol or shotgun, which limited their ground game and play-action possibilities. Now, theyre back to the run-heavy approach that Kubiak has employed most of his career, one that features roll-outs, bootlegs, sprint-outs and plenty of hand-offs.Weve got a lot more things that we can do with the running game now, Elway said. Weve got a fullback that can really play in (Andy) Janovich and who does a great job. It gives us a lot of different options.Elway suggested this new offense will take some pressur
