HOUSTON -- Lamar Miller led the way when the Houston Texans finally got the ball moving late Sunday night.Now, he and the Texans just have to work on getting going before the games final minutes.Miller scored two touchdowns and his 10-yard catch-and-run TD in the fourth quarter helped Houston cut a 14-point deficit to tie the game and force overtime. The Texans got a field goal in OT to beat the Indianapolis Colts 26-23.Lamar was offensively one of the big differences in the game, coach Bill OBrien said. He just kept at it, hes a heck of a football player and he had a good night.Miller finished with a season-high 149 yards rushing and added 29 yards receiving.Houston (4-2) trailed 23-9 when he took a short pass from Brock Osweiler and cut one way before running into three defenders changing direction and evading four more Colts on his way to the end zone.I was just trying to make a play for this team, he said. I knew we were down two scores so once Brock got the ball in my hands, I was just trying to make a play.His first touchdown was a 1-yard run in the third quarter that was his first as a Texan.Osweiler threw another TD pass moments after Millers catch-and-run, and then Nick Novaks 33-yard field goal gave Houston the win in overtime.Millers teammates raved about his performance.Lamar ran his tail off tonight, left tackle Duane Brown said. We knew it wasnt going to be that easy early on, but we just wanted to keep chipping away at it, and eventually we could break open some big runs. We were able to that.Miller was especially effective after halftime when he piled up 83 yards rushing.We felt like he was the guy throughout the game that was probably playing the best on offense, so at halftime we said, `Look, weve got to keep finding ways to get this guy the ball, OBrien said.Some things we learned from Houstons overtime win against Indianapolis.CLOSE CALLS: Three of the four losses by Indianapolis (2-4) have come by four points or fewer, leaving coach Chuck Pagano looking for things his team can do to close out close games.Its right there, he said. You cannot leave points out on the field. Youve got to be able to score touchdowns, and you cant settle for field goals ... you cant have penalties, you cant have poor play.CLOWNEY KEEPS CONTRIBUTING: Houstons Jadeveon Clowney, who was the top overall pick in the 2014 draft, continues to contribute in his first healthy season after struggling to stay in the field in his first two years in the NFL. He finished with four tackles and two quarterback hits on Sunday in his sixth straight start after not playing more than four straight games in his first two seasons.Hes very disruptive, OBrien said. I really think that hes coming into his own. People ask me a lot about moving positions; he plays all over the front ... hes a very difficult guy to block.TOUGH LUCK: Colts quarterback Andrew Luck had 252 yards passing with a touchdown and ran for 53 yards and another score, but was unable to move the offense in overtime. Luck, who had been sacked an NFL-most 20 times entering Sundays game, was sacked three times against the Texans, including one by Benardrick McKinney to force a punt in overtime.If you have the opportunity in this league, you have to put people away, he said. Its too hard to win games when youre surviving your mistakes. We had our opportunities ... (the Texans) did what they needed to do to win a game -- we didnt.STRONG CATCH: Houston receiver Jaelen Strong didnt have a reception in regulation but had perhaps the biggest catch of the night when he hauled in a 36-yard reception in overtime that set up the winning field goal. Strong, who is in his second season, has had limited playing time this year with the emergence of rookie first-round pick Will Fuller. But with Fuller managing a hamstring injury, Strong came through with the big grab.He just kept fighting, Osweiler said. He kept doing his job, and Im so proud of his effort.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Christian Villanueva Jersey .

Greg Gard does not have rebuilding to tackle during his first full-time season as the head coach of the Wisconsin mens basketball team.Gard took over as interim head coach when Bo Ryan abruptly quit last season after 12 games. An assistant to Ryan for 14 years at Wisconsin, Gard had the interim tag stripped from his job title in March with a five-year contract.The ninth-ranked Badgers begin the regular season with a four-game home slate on Friday when they host Central Arkansas at the Kohl Center in Madison, Wis.Wisconsin returns its entire starting lineup and 99 percent of offense from a team that finished 22-13 overall and reached the NCAA Sweet 16.The roster boasts four starting seasons, including forward Nigel Hayes, who was named the Big Ten Conference preseason player of the year. Hayes averaged 15.7 points and 3.0 assists per game during his junior campaign.Gard said Hayes maturity, along with experience of other veterans, will be impactful to begin the season. Wisconsin lost its season opener in 2015-16, and six games in total before Ryans departure.They had to dig themselves from (out of) a hole and mature and grow, Gard said. They understood how important the process is and how the everyday of it goes.It helps when you have a mature group. When you have four seniors leading the way ... your best-coached teams are always your player-coached teams. This group has taken on a leadership and ownership of that locker room.The Badgers also will lean heavily on senior guard Bronson Koenig for his 3-point prowess, and redshirt sophomore forward Ethan Happ for attacking the boards. Koenig contributed 13.1 points per game and shot 39 perrcent from 3-point range as a junior, while Happ led the team in rebounding with 7.dddddddddddd9 rebounds per contest. Happ averaged 12.4 points and 1.8 steals per game.Senior guard Zak Showalter and senior forward Vitto Brown also bring a wealth of experience to Wisconsins starting lineup.The Badgers are fresh off a secret scrimmage at Northern Iowa on Nov. 5, which gave freshmen the opportunity to participate in a game-week preparation, complete with a scouting report on the Panthers. The event marked the second year that the two teams played a scrimmage that was closed to the media.Unlike Wisconsin, rebuilding is a priority for Central Arkansas.The Bears, members of the Southland Conference, posted a 7-21 overall record, an improvement from the 2014-15 season when Central Arkansas won just two games. Russ Pennell, a former Bears player, starts his third season at the coaching helm.The offense will run through Bears guard Jordan Howard, who averaged 20.2 points per game last season. Howard is joined by guard Derreck Brooks (12.1 ppg, 6.3 rpg) and Mathieu Kamba (10.5 ppg, 5.4 rpg).Pennell said he hopes to build depth and improvement on defense with more options off the bench, after four players redshirted last season. He said he likes the Bears competitiveness in practices.We can go different ways (with lineups) because most of our guys are multi-position, Pennell said. We can mix and match, and thats the thing I like. I just believe that we will be able to keep quality players on the floor the entire game. ' ' '
