Some things to watch in the Big Ten on Saturday:GAME OF THE WEEKNo. 7 Nebraska at No. 11 Wisconsin. The Cornhuskers have won 10 of their last 11 and are 7-0 for the first time since 2001. With a win, theyll remain in control of the Big Ten West and change the opinion of those whove been unimpressed with their body of work against a light schedule. Nebraska has lost four of the last five meetings with the Badgers, and Camp Randall Stadium has been the Huskers house of horrors. Theyve been outscored 107-41 in their last two visits. Mike Riley lost 35-0 in Madison in his last trip there, with Oregon State in 2011, and now he returns for the biggest game since he took over the Huskers last year. With two Big Ten losses, the Badgers are in desperation mode. Even though their defense has been hampered by injuries , coordinator Justin Wilcoxs unit is one of the best in the country.BEST MATCHUPNo. 2 Michigan at Michigan State. Never mind that Michigan State has lost five straight for the first time since 1991. Mark Dantonio cant stand living in the Wolverines shadow, so even though the Spartans arent playing for much this season and are 23 +-point underdogs, dont be surprised if they push Michigan. No doubt, Jim Harbaugh and his Wolverines have payback on their minds. Theyve dropped three straight to the Spartans and last year they lost 27-23 at the Big House on the last play when Jalen Watts-Jackson ran back Michigans botched punt attempt for a touchdown.INSIDE THE NUMBERSWisconsins Corey Clement, with 164 yards against Ohio State and 134 against Iowa last week, is coming off his first back-to-back 100-yard games since 2013. ... Minnesota has allowed only one touchdown (to Rutgers) in the first half of its four conference games. ... Illinois Hardy Nickerson leads the Big Ten with 10.3 tackles a game. ... Michigan has lost four straight in the series with Michigan State on only four occasions since the teams began playing in 1898. ... Penn State heads to Purdue on a seven-game losing skid in true road games. ... Indiana is averaging 290 yards passing to rank second in the Big Ten. Its opponent, Maryland, has allowed just one team to pass for more than 200.LONG SHOTNorthwestern is a 26 +-point underdog at No. 6 Ohio State. During the Wildcats three-game win streak, Clayton Thorson has thrown for nine touchdowns against one interception and Austin Carr has been the Big Tens hottest receiver. But theyve lost 29 of their last 30 against Ohio State, and the Buckeyes are in a foul mood after losing at Penn State. Urban Meyer has lost back-to-back games only four times in his 15 seasons as a head coach. Each of his three national championship teams (2006, 2008 Florida and 2014 Ohio State) has overcome a regular-season loss to win out.PLAYERS TO WATCHWisconsin QBs Alex Hornibrook and Bart Houston both are in coach Paul Chrysts plans against Nebraska. Hornibrook is the better passer, particularly on deep balls, and will remain the starter. Houston was the starter in the three nonconference games but didnt play in the Badgers first four conference games. He got in for two series last week against Iowa, went 4 for 6 for 59 yards and a touchdown, and gave the Badgers a running threat.---Online:AP college football website: http://collegefootball.ap.org http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Bengals-William-Jackson-Jersey/ . Anthony Davis had 31 points and 17 rebounds in his seventh straight game with more than 20 points, but that was only enough to keep the Pelicans competitive into the final minutes. Andrew Bogut had 10 points and 15 rebounds for Golden State, which rebounded from a loss a night earlier in Oklahoma City and snapped a two-game skid. http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Bengals-Nick-Vigil-Jersey/ .

Anthony Calvillo, through 20 CFL seasons, was frequently invincible and largely stoic in the heat of competition. But underneath the professional exterior he was, and is, compellingly human. http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Bengals-Cedric-Peerman-Jersey/ . Reassurance came from Paul Tesori, his caddie and close friend whose newborn son is in intensive care in a Florida hospital. "Paul sent me a text this morning, just told me he loved me and wanted to go out and fight as hard as I would any other day," Simpson said Sunday after doing just that. ATLANTA -- Marlins manager Don Mattingly nearly sent Jose Fernandez back to the hotel early so he could get extra rest for his start on Saturday.Instead, the Miami ace stuck around for some theatrics with his bat.Making the first pinch-hit appearance of his career, Fernandez drove in the go-ahead run with a two-run double in the 12th inning, helping the Marlins beat the Atlanta Braves 7-5 on Friday night.Thats always been like a dream, play the outfield or get to pinch hit like that, Fernandez said. When it actually happened, it was like, `Oh my God, were really doing this. My heart rate started, (but) the main goal was just try to hit a ground ball somewhere and get a run and go home.The dramatic moment overshadowed the meltdown of closer A.J. Ramos, who blew a rare save in the ninth for Miami. Ramos had converted 33 straight saves, one short of the franchise record, before Tyler Flowers led off with his sixth homer to force a 5-5 tie.He battled back after that, Mattingly said. Hes always that guy you know isnt going to panic. You could tell it didnt rattle him. He stayed in control and ended up getting us out of that jam.Fernandez, one of baseballs most dynamic starters, began the game with a .222 batting average in 27 at-bats. With the pitchers spot due up in the 12th and no position players available, Fernandez batted for reliever Nick Wittgren (3-1) and delivered the big hit.The game was going at a real fast pace, Fernandez said. I said, `Im going stay and watch the game with the guys and be with them. I may put my cleats on just in case. Its a long shot. Warmed up for like 20 minutes. `Im not going to hit anyway, but Im still going to warm up. Before the game, Mattingly said that Ramos would remain the closer after the team traded for Fernando Rodney. Rodney did his job, facing four batters in a scoreless eighth, but Ramos wasnt as lucky.Rodney, whose 253 career saves rank fifth on the active list, converted all 17 of his chances this year for the Padres, but Mattingly said the plan was for him to work primarily as a setup man with Miami.The Marlins snapped a three-game skid and improved to 3-7 against Atlanta, the NLs worst team.Casey Kelly (0-3), the sixth Atlanta pitcher, took the loss.Marcell Ozuna went 4 for 6, homered and drove in three runs for Miami. Martin Prado, Christian Yelich and Ozuna each had a two-out hit in the sseventh when Miami scored twice to take a 5-4 lead.ddddddddddddraves ace Julio Teheran began the night having pitched 23 consecutive scoreless innings, but his career-best streak ended quickly when Miami took a 3-0 lead in the first on Derek Dietrichs leadoff homer and Ozunas 17th homer, a two-run shot.Teheran avoided trouble in the second when he struck out Yelich to strand the bases loaded, but Yelich chased him in the seventh with an RBI single that made it 3-all.Teheran allowed 11 hits and five runs and struck out six in 6 2/3 innings. His ERA rose .26 points to 2.72.Atlanta cut the lead to 3-2 in the second on Erick Aybars RBI single and Teherans groundout.Ozunas RBI single in the seventh came off Chris Withrow for the go-ahead run.In his previous 12 starts, Teheran was just 3-5 despite a 1.61 ERA and a .160 opponents batting average.It was a battle, Teheran said. It was kind of a different game. Youre not going to feel the same way every game. You try to, but sometimes its not going to happen.Marlins starter Justin Nicolino gave up seven hits, four runs, one walk and struck out one in five innings. The left-hander blew a 3-0 lead when Chase dArnaud hit his first career homer, a two-run shot, to put the Braves up 4-0 in the fifth.Recalled before the game from Triple-A New Orleans, Nicolino has an 8.22 ERA over his last three starts.KER-PLUNK AGAINDietrich was hit by a pitch in the second, marking the third time this series and 16th this season, most in the majors. Even the visiting dugout at Turner Field hasnt been a safe place Dietrich, who was hit in the head by Yelichs foul liner on May 29. Carlos Delgado set the Marlins single-season record after getting hit by 17 pitches in 2005.TRAINERS ROOMAtlanta CF Ender Inciarte strained his right groin and had to leave the game in the sixth inning.TRANSACTION WIRELHP Jo-Jo Reyes was designated for assignment with Rodneys arrival. The Marlins optioned RHP Brian Ellington to New Orleans to make room for Nicolino.UP NEXTMarlins: RHP Fernandez (10-3) has a 2.15 ERA and a 4-1 in seven career starts against Atlanta.Braves: RHP Lucas Harrell (0-0) will make his first start since 2014 with Houston. He went 2-1 with a 2.81 ERA in nine appearances at Triple-A Gwinnett.
