Virginias players viewed a bye week as time to build on momentum, not to rest.The Cavaliers (2-3, 1-0 Atlantic Coast Conference), one of just two teams still unbeaten in league play in the Coastal Division, will look to extend their winning streak to three Saturday when they host Pittsburgh (4-2, 1-1).Were rolling right now, wide receiver David Eldridge said. Were looking pretty good.The Cavaliers ended a 17-game road losing streak in their last game, a 34-20 victory at Duke, and Panthers coach Pat Narduzzi expects first-year Virginia coach Bronco Mendenhall and his staff will have used the bye week to also install some new wrinkles on both sides of the ball.That will be the next challenge, Narduzzi said. They have had two weeks to prepare and get a great game plan going. We are under, I guess for compared to them, we are a short week for us. So well be moving around pretty quick.Pittsburgh, with the return of 2014 ACC Player of the Year James Conner from a bout with cancer, is second in the conference in rushing, averaging 244 yards per game. Virginia is 11th against the run, allowing 162 yards, but has increasingly played better defense as its players have adapted to Mendenhalls 3-4 scheme.Cavaliers safety Quin Blanding is eager to see how the defense stacks up against Conner and Co.To be a great safety, youve got to know how to tackle in the alley, tackle in space, one-on-one tackles, and youve also got to know how to play the ball in the air as well, he said. And so I think this game is going to really prepare me for both. They do a lot of play-action as well, but they also love to run the ball, and theres going to be a lot of times Im one-on-one with the fly guy, so Ive just got to show them my game.The Panthers won the last meeting, 26-19, last season at Pittsburgh.---Here are some other things to watch when Pittsburgh visits Virginia:ROLLING OUT: Virginia quarterback Kurt Benkert has thrown 13 touchdown passes, and some of his best throws have come after hes been flushed out of the pocket. With an 84-yard completion to Eldridge against Duke, he became the first quarterback in school history to have completions of 80 or more yards in consecutive games.HELPING HANDS: Conners return has given the Panthers an emotional boost, but Narduzzi hasnt asked him to be the workhorse he was before his illness. The Panthers will continue to use a rotation that includes Chawntez Moss and 2015 ACC Offensive Rookie of the Year Quadree Ollison., hoping to keep all three of them fresh.HOME COOKING: The game marks the start of a three-game homestand for Virginia, with visits by North Carolina an Louisville to follow. Its going to feel good, nose tackle Donte Wilkins said. What we want to do is just go one at a time, go 1-0 every week. Thats our game-plan right now for the team. Just 1-0 every week.BIG MAN IN THE MIDDLE: Shakir Sotos move from defensive end to defensive tackle has given Pitts run defense a significant boost. The senior was at his best in last weeks victory against Georgia Tech, recording a career-high eight tackles, including a stuff on fourth-and-1 late in the fourth quarter of Pitts 37-34 victory. The Panthers are 10th nationally, and second in the ACC, against the run, giving up 98.3 yards per game. Virginia is last in rushing in the ACC, averaging less than 120 yards, but fifth in passing at 291.4 yards per game.ROAD WORRIERS?: The road hasnt been kind to the Panthers so far this year. Pitt lost by a touchdown at Oklahoma State and on the final snap at North Carolina in consecutive weeks after blowing a fourth-quarter lead. The Panthers havent scored a touchdown on the road in the fourth quarter this season, getting outscored 21-3.---Online: The APs college football page: http://collegefootball.ap.org---Follow Hank on Twitter: www.twitter.com/hankkurzjr---AP sports Writer Will Graves contributed from Pittsburgh Cheap Authentic China Jerseys .

Francis told several hundred members of the European Olympic Committees that when sport "is considered only in economic terms and consequently for victory at every cost . Hawthorns Alastair Clarkson faces former right-hand man and Carlton mentor Brendon Bolton in an AFL coaching battle of wits on Saturday.But even before the Hawks landed in Launceston, Clarkson was already sick of the master and apprentice subplot.Were not really interested in all the excitement and romance ... hes got a job to do at Carlton. Ive got a job to do at Hawthorn, Clarkson said in Melbourne on Friday.Clarkson cares more about banking four premiership points and staying two games clear in top spot on the ladder.But the four-time premiership coach must also have grown tiresome of the subplot given so many proteges have become rivals.Bolton, Leon Cameron, Adam Simpson, Luke Beveridge and Damien Hardwick all learned their trade as Clarksons assistants.Its par for the course, whether its players or coaches (they switch clubs), Clarkson said.As good a mates as you might be, you dont usually converse too much in the week before the game or the week after.I havent spoken to `Dimma (Hardwick) since we played (last weekend).Well probably renew our friendship again next week. Thatll probably be the same with `Bolts the week after next.Bolton agreed.Well both be highly competitive on gameday then Im sure shake hands, he said.Im indebted to Clarko and the Hawthorn ffootball club.ddddddddddddBlues captain Marc Murphy, currently sidelined with an ankle injury, suggested on Thursday that Bolton had some inside information about the Hawks.Clarkson believes there are no secrets about Hawthorns approach.Theres 10 coaches at every team in the competition. They all do a very, very good job and they know what youre doing, Clarkson said.We dont expect `Bolts would know too much more than what Collingwood, West Coast or any other side would know about us.Its one thing to know what youre doing, its another thing to try and break it down.The Hawks, who have been hosting games at Aurora Stadium for 15 years, are shooting for a 19th straight win at their adopted home.Its been a win-win ... we play really well at that ground, Clarkson said.It was really important for our club, the financial stability of our club ... it has been really good for Tassie and really good for us.Clarkson, whose side is sitting pretty in their search for a fourth straight flag, highlighted Bryce Gibbs, Patrick Cripps and Matthew Kreuzer as Carltons dangermen.Their midfield is as challenging as any midfield in the competition, he said.
