Game Notes

 

Stillwater, OK (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Le'Bryan Nash kept rising up and firing from beyond the arc, and as each shot went down, the anticipation of an upset grew larger at Gallagher-Iba Arena. Nash hit three treys and scored 14 points during a late, game-changing 17-4 run as Oklahoma State shocked No. 2 Missouri, 79-72.

 

Ricardo Ratliffe had a double-double with 25 points and 12 rebounds for the Tigers (18-2, 5-2), who were coming off an emotional high with an 89-88 victory over then No. 3 Baylor on Saturday. Missouri had its four-game winning streak snapped.

 

Syracuse, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tiffany Hayes drained six three-pointers en route to a career-high 35 points and ripped down seven rebounds as third- ranked Connecticut blew past Syracuse, 95-54 on Wednesday. Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis finished with 19 points and eight rebounds, while Bria Hartley had 18 points and seven assists for the Huskies (18-2, 7-1 Big East) who have won six straight since dropping a 74-67 overtime decision to Notre Dame on January 7.

 

Tyson-Thomas drained a three-pointer to finally stop the run and make it 65-43, but the Huskies came back with another run, this one of the 10-2 variety to give UConn a 75-45 lead with 10 minutes to play.

 

Syracuse never threatened the rest of the way and the Huskies finished the second half outscoring the Orange 55-21 to roll to the easy victory.

 

With the game tied at 24, UConn ripped off a quick 6-0 spurt to build up a 30-24 edge.

 

A layup by Hayes gave the Huskies their largest lead of the half at 40-28, and they led 40-33 at the break.

 

Rayvonte Rice led the Bulldogs (12-9, 5-5) with 23 points and 11 rebounds and Ben Simons contributed 18 points. Kurt Alexander donated 16 points for Drake, which has lost two consecutive games.

 

Creighton, though, kept the Bulldogs at bay, and a McDermott layup with three minutes left gave Creighton a 71-63 lead.

Problem with Bears?

Chicago, IL - New Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler and star linebacker Brian Urlacher shot down reports of a rift, saying they're simply not true.

"There's nothing between us," Cutler said Thursday, when he reported to training camp. "I just want to put that to rest. There never has been anything between us."

Urlacher added: "I never said what I was quoted as saying and that's it. I have a lot of respect for Jay. I think Jay knows that."
Former Bears receiver Bobby Wade caused a stir when he told Minneapolis radio station KFAN-AM that Urlacher used a profanity while questioning Cutler's manhood during a conversation in Las Vegas last weekend. Wade, who now plays for the Vikings, said Urlacher used a profane version of the word "wimp" during the interview that had to be edited out.
go radio station WSCR-AM also reported that Urlacher had to be restrained from confronting Cutler during organized team activities.
"I wouldn't go face-to-face with Brian, anyway," Cutler said. "No, that's never happened. I've hung out with Brian away from the facility numerous times and we've always gotten along."
Urlacher, noting he was limited by a groin injury, denied the reports in an interview with the Chicago Tribune and did it again when he reported to camp.
"I didn't practice this summer, so I don't know how I would fight the guy if I didn't practice," Urlacher said. "We have no problems. I'm excited about football starting. I'm excited to have him as our quarterback."
Why would Wade say that?
"I don't know," Urlacher said. "Maybe he's jealous because we have a good quarterback now."
Cutler said the first he heard of any friction was when he got a call from Urlacher to clear the air. Urlacher, however, said he had already taken several calls from teammates wondering if the reports were true when Cutler phoned.
"He called me and I said, What's up (expletive), what are you doing?'" a grinning Urlacher said, uttering the same word he allegedly used with Wade. "It's so dumb to me that this even got to this point, but it did and then here we are."
better place after going 9-7 and missing the playoffs for the second straight year. They have a franchise quarterback for the first time in decades after acquiring Cutler in an offseason trade with Denver. But there are questions about his attitude following a fallout with Broncos management and new coach Josh McDaniels.
His critics include former Bears coach Mike Ditka and former Indianapolis and Tampa Bay coach Tony Dungy, one of Smith's mentors. Smith, however, said Cutler has been a model teammate so far while denying any animosity with Urlacher.
"There's no issue with Jay and Brian, except Brian and Jay are both excited about being teammates for our club this year," coach Lovie Smith said. "No more than that. We can't spend a whole lot of time on something that isn't true. I have talked to the players. Whenever something comes out, you have to address it, but it's a non-issue."
In some ways, Cutler is getting a second chance in Chicago, an opportunity to repair his reputation.
Smith said another quarterback - Michael Vick - deserves one, although he doesn't see it happening with the Bears, who lack an experienced backup. The former Atlanta Falcons star, who served a 23-month sentence for running a dogfighting ring, said Thursday he is getting close to signing with a pro football team.
"A second chance, like everyone in society who has paid their debt to society," Smith said. "He deserves a second chance. As far as we're concerned, we like this team that we have right now."
Particularly the new quarterback.
"Me and Brian have been on a good relationship since I've been here, and I expect it to continue that way," Cutler said.
