LANDOVER, Md. -- Dana Holgorsen could sense it on the sideline when West Virginia built a two-score lead early in the fourth quarter against BYU. The Mountaineers were feeling too good.I said we can get excited about being up 16 points if you want to but this thing aint over, Holgorsen said.He was right.Taysom Hill and BYU rallied, but Maurice Fleming ended the Cougars last threat with an interception near his own goal line and the Mountaineers hung on 35-32 on Saturday.Skyler Howard passed for 332 yards and Rasul Douglas returned an interception 54 yards for a score for West Virginia (3-0), which will head into Big 12 play unbeaten.Its encouraging to be able to address some of these things when youre 3-0 as opposed to losing a game like this and trying to address them after that, Holgorsen said.West Virginia grabbed a 35-19 lead with 11:27 left in the fourth when Howard hit Daikiel Shorts for a 9-yard score.We have to be one of those teams thats constantly on the gas pedal and we let up, West Virginia tackle Kyle Bosch said.The Cougars scored two touchdowns in less than four minutes to cut their deficit to three with 5:55 remaining. They got one last chance to put together a game-winning drive after a miscommunication between Howard and center Tyler Orlosky led to a West Virginia fumble near BYUs goal line.Hill drove BYU to the West Virginia 28, but his final pass was tipped away from a receiver by West Virginias Nana Kyeremeh and intercepted by Fleming to seal it.Weve been talking about that all week in practice, Fleming said. We get a lot of tipped balls. We just got to get our hands on them.BYU (1-3) has lost three straight by a total of seven points to Power Five teams after opening the season with a two-point win on a last-second field goal against Arizona.I just know we havent played our best game yet, BYU coach Kalani Sitake said. Im waiting for that to happen.THE TAKEAWAYBYU: Three interceptions stand out for Hill, especially the forced throw under pressure that turned into a pick-six, but this was his best performance of the season (241 yards passing, 101 rushing). He looked more like his pre-injury self when he leaped into and off of a couple of defenders during a third-quarter run. After two straight games where the offense struggled, there had been some fans clamoring for Tanner Mangum, the sophomore who filled in admirably when Hill was injured last year.Hill got banged up and went to the locker room briefly Saturday in the second half, but did not miss a play.West Virginia: The season started with some uncertainty as to what the future holds at WVU for coach Dana Holgorsen. A perfect start is a nice way to turn down the heat. And in whats looking like a wide-open Big 12, the Mountaineers are good enough offensively to at least be in the mix of contenders.MAKING A CASEBYU was one of 11 teams Big 12 officials met with earlier this month in Dallas as they consider whether to expand the 10-team league. The Cougars performance on the field against West Virginia is not likely to sway things. If nothing else, their fans did a nice job of showing off the schools national reach. The lower level of FedEx Field, home of the Washington Redskins, behind the BYU bench was well stocked with the white and blue of the Cougars -- despite being 2,000 miles away from their campus in Provo, Utah for the neutral site game.The Big 12 is all about offense and the Cougars did their best to keep up. Jamaal Williams had 169 yards and two touchdowns on 24 carries, but he had a key turnover, too. Williams lost a fumble that led to a West Virginia touchdown.I feel like we just beat ourselves, Williams said.UP NEXTBYU: On Friday night, the Cougars play a team from outside the Power Five for the first time but Toledo coming to Provo is no break. The Rockets are 3-0 and coming off an open date.West Virginia: The Mountaineers start Big 12 play with Kansas State on Oct. 1.---Follow Ralph D.

In taking its goal tally to 99 in all competitions already this season, City delivered another demonstration of its lethal firepower at Etihad Stadium to set up a fourth-round match at home to another second-tier team -- Watford. CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- North Carolina wont have a difficult time finding motivation this season.The memories of losing in the NCAA championship game on a last-second 3-pointer to Villanova still sting more than six months later. It was the crushing final play in a 33-win season that saw the Tar Heels go from a preseason No. 1-ranked team questioned about its toughness to a group that matured enough to sweep the Atlantic Coast Conference regular-season and tournament titles before reaching the Final Four.There are enough veteran returnees for UNC to have the potential to do it again, driven by the memory of coming so oh-so-close to cutting down the nets in April.Every time I turn around and look up at the banners, where the national championship banners are, junior Joel Berry II said, sometimes it hurts me that we dont have the 2016 national championship up there. So its just motivation to me.Some Tar Heels, including Hall of Fame coach Roy Williams, still havent watched film from the loss.I thought we had a great, great year but its just like somebody pulls your heart out and taunts you by shaking it in front of you, Williams said. But youve got to get over it.The Tar Heels (33-7, 14-4 ACC) have some big holes with the losses of four-year starter Marcus Paige -- the guy UNC looked for when it needed a big shot -- and Associated Press all-American Brice Johnson inside. But they return six of their top eight scorers while adding a top-10 recruiting class.Berry is the top returning scorer (12.8 points), while fellow junior Justin Jackson (12.2) and senior big man Kennedy Meeks are returning starters. The Tar Heels also return ACC sixth man of the Isaiah Hicks, now likely to earn a promotion into the starting lineup.On the bench, senior Nate Britt provides backcourt depth along with junior Theo Pinson -- out indefinitely with a broken bone in his right foot -- and sophomore wing Kenny Williams III.The Tar Heels also will get help up front from McDonalds All-American Tony Bradley Jr., who headlines a wing-heavy recruiting class.---Some other things to know about the Tar Heels thiss season:PINSONS INJURY: Pinsons injury during a recent practice, announced Friday, has the potential to be a big blow.dddddddddddd The versatile swingman is the teams top defender, a good passer and a leader with a knack for keeping up team morale .BERRY IN CHARGE?: Berry looks like the top candidate to take Paiges role as the guy to entrust with taking the big shot. He was the teams best outside shooter (38 percent from 3-point range) and led the team in assists, steals and free-throw percentage. And in a sign that Berry could be ready for a leap, he upped his game by averaging 13.7 points and shooting 50 percent in six NCAA Tournament games -- ending with 20 points against Villanova.HICKS FOUL TROUBLE: Keeping Hicks on the floor last season was a challenge, including twice in the final 10 games when he picked up four or five fouls in fewer than 10 minutes. The 6-foot-9 forward brings scoring and rebounding, and he was the teams defensive player of the game eight times -- third most on the team behind Paige and Berry. The Tar Heels need him out there this year with fewer frontcourt options.JACKSONS GROWTH: Jackson has good size on the perimeter and has been a complimentary scorer through his first two seasons. The Tar Heels need him to become a consistent scorer now in a leading role, especially when it comes to improving his 29-percent shooting from behind the arc last year. Hes an unselfish player and has occasionally seemed content to blend into the background, but the Tar Heels are tougher to stop when hes playing assertively .THE ROOKIES: The 6-foot-10 Bradley, a native of Bartow, Florida, will have a shot at immediate minutes for a team with only Meeks and Hicks returning to the frontcourt. The rest of that recruiting class brings depth on the wing with Brandon Robinson, Seventh Woods and Shea Rush.---Follow Aaron Beard on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/aaronbeardap and the APs college basketball site at http://collegebasketball.ap.org Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys cheap jerseys Cheap Jersyes Cheap Basketball Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys cheap jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys ' ' '
