Texas Longhorns in a non-conference battle at Frank Erwin

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. Vapormax Uomo Scontate . -- Penn State coach Patrick Chambers didnt think it was the matchup or the fact that it was Senior Night that allowed his Nittany Lions to beat Ohio State again. No, it was something more basic. "I think we were mad," Chambers said, emphasizing that his team had been thumped by Iowa and Nebraska in its previous two games. "It just happened to be Ohio State tonight. We came out and played desperate and with a sense of urgency. And we played angry." D.J. Newbill scored 23 points, Tim Frazier added 16 and Penn State held off a late rally by No. 22 Ohio State for a 65-63 victory Thursday. The Buckeyes (22-7, 9-7 Big Ten) had a chance to win at the end. Coming out of a timeout with 6.8 seconds left, Lenzelle Smith Jr.s 3-pointer rimmed out. The Nittany Lions (14-14, 5-10) grabbed the rebound and time expired. Ohio State was led by LaQuinton Ross, who scored 19 points. Aaron Craft, plagued by foul trouble most of the game, added 10. "It was one of those games where two guys pound the ball off the backboard and it bounces out and they make a 3 on us," Ohio State coach Thad Matta said. "Little things like that is kind of the way the game went." Penn State swept the season series. The Nittany Lions upset then-No. 23 Ohio State 71-70 in overtime on Jan. 29 in Columbus. Nittany Lions forward Donovan Jack made a turnaround jumper, was fouled and hit the free throw to give Penn State a 60-55 lead with 1:59 to go. Ross and Craft each made a pair of free throws, sandwiched around two by Frazier, to pull the Buckeyes to 62-59 with just more than a minute to go. Frazier pushed Penn States lead to five with 39.4 seconds left with a pair of free throws. After Ross made two more free throws, Shannon Scott stole the inbounds pass and passed to Trey McDonald for a layup that cut it to 64-63. Penn State missed two free throws on the ensuing possession, but Smiths shot caromed off the rim and over the backboard, giving the Nittany Lions the ball back with under 10 seconds left. Frazier was fouled and made one of two at the line, setting up Smiths last-second attempt from 3-point range. "When we executed what we were supposed to do, it was amazing what happened. We didnt have the flow that we normally do," Matta said. "That was the difference. We talked about it and talked about it. We couldnt get it to where we needed it." Frazier, a senior point guard, was recognized before the game as part of Senior Night festivities. He is one of 10 finalists for the Senior CLASS Award, given annually to a student-athlete with notable achievements in four areas of excellence: community, classroom, character and competition. Frazier will leave Penn State as the schools career leader in assists. Frazier acknowledged that his uneven play early was due to the emotions and nerves of the night. "It was very emotional. I was basically trying to hold back tears in the beginning. Obviously you tell at the beginning of the game I had so many emotions running through me. Turnovers left and right. Airballs," he said. Chambers was happy to see a player who has meant so much to the program get a win on such a special night. "Hes an amazing kid. A man now. Hes a man," Chambers said. "Its Senior Night. Youve got family there. Youve got one game left in this building. Youve been here five years. Youve invested time and energy. He puts so much into this program. You cant blame the guy for being jacked up. I was happy to see us get a win for him."

Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos have put up 40-plus points in their first two games and made offence look easy. As Pryor heads into his fourth NFL start when the Raiders play at Denver tonight, Pryor knows the temptation will be to put more on his shoulders, to try to match the Broncos score for score all by himself -- to try to out-Peyton Peyton. You can see all the action on TSN beginning at 8:30pm et/5:30pm pt. Coverage begins with Monday Night Countdown at 6:30pm et/3:30pm pt. In his short time in the league, Pryor has already figured out thats no way to approach this game. "When you do that, youll come up short because Peyton is a great quarterback," the third-year veteran said. "It reminds me of Tiger Woods, when his competitors were kind of going against him and they kind of folded because they pressed. Ive got to stay away from doing that." If the Raiders (1-1) are going to have any chance, it figures to come on the strength of their league-leading rushing offence (198.5 yards per game) and a defence that finished Week 2 tied for the NFL lead in sacks with nine. Pryor, who won the starting job over off-season pickup Matt Flynn, had 162 yards rushing in the first two games -- most among quarterbacks in a league featuring Michael Vick, Colin Kaepernick and RG3 -- though he insists running is only a last option. "I know if I have pressure and guys get in, thats when I think about running," said Pryor, a third-round selection in the 2011 supplemental draft, who goes down in history as the last pick made by Al Davis. "Im not going to take hits, but if I have a pocket thats open and I know that I can set there and go through all my progressions, Im going to do it. But if I cant, of course, Im going to use my God-given ability." Mannings God-given ability, of course, is throwing the football. Last week, he joined Brett Favre and Dan Marino as only the third NFL quarterbacks to surpass the 60,000-yard mark for his career. The Broncos headed into Week 3 with 90 points, 24 more than second-ranked Green Bay. They havve started 30 drives, 11 resulting in touchdowns and two more producing field goals. Air Max 97 Scontate. Manning has opened the season with nine touchdowns and no interceptions, -- the first quarterback to do that. These performances have come against Baltimore and the New York Giants, the last two teams to win the Super Bowl. At times, Denver has made it look ridiculously easy. Manning assures it is not. "It is work out there," he said. "We have prepared hard for these last two weeks." This will be the 106th episode of an AFC West rivalry that dates back to 1960, the beginning of the AFL. As the years have passed, the rivalry has taken on less meaning to the players, beyond the fact that its a divisional game. Is it easier preparing for a team you know better? "For the record, nothing about this is easy," coach John Fox said. "Its all hard. Youve got a lot of competitive people out there. Its our most important game of the year because its a division game." Scouting the Raiders will not be as easy as pulling up last years game tape. Pryor started only the last game of 2012. The defence, which allowed 63 points to the Broncos last year, has been completely revamped, with nine new starters to open the season. A 10th, Brandian Ross, will start at strong safety Monday in place of injured Tyvon Branch. Other new faces include veteran safety Charles Woodson, who picked Oakland over Denver during free agency last off-season, and cornerback Tracy Porter, who had a bad season in Denver, then signed with the Raiders. Their task: Slow down a Denver offence that has looked unstoppable, which, in turn, would make things more manageable for Pryor and running back Darren McFadden, who leads the league with 223 yards from scrimmage. "I hope we dont have to score 40 points and that well be able to play some good defence," Raiders coach Dennis Allen said. "But well have to adjust however the game plays out. Obviously, were going to have to score some points to win because this is a high-powered offence and theyre probably executing as good as Ive seen any offence execute." ' ' '
