AUSTIN, Texas -- Texas running back DOnta Forman is quietly having a big season.While the Longhorns three-game losing skid keeps raising the pressure on coach Charlie Strong, Foreman keeps pounding away at opposing defenses and racking up some of the best rushing numbers in the country.Foremans 148.8 yards per game ranks second nationally and hes averaging nearly seven yards per carry as Texas (2-3, 0-2) heads into a Saturday night matchup against Iowa State (1-5, 0-3). At his current pace, Foreman could rival Ricky Williams of 1997 when Williams ran for 1,800 yards on a 4-7 team the season before he won the Heisman Trophy.What no one realizes (is) how strong and how fast he is, Strong said. Its maybe a 1-yard gain, maybe a 2-yard gain and he just keeps grinding. And then all of a sudden its going to be a six yard pop and then a 20 yard pop.Foreman is a 250-pound battering ram whos fast enough to have eight touchdown runs of 19 yards or longer the last two seasons, including bursts of 93, 65 and 62 yards.Foreman ran for 159 yards and two scores in a loss to Oklahoma last week despite an abdominal muscle injury from a week earlier. He also missed Texas win over UTEP with a leg injury although Texas has said he could have played that game if needed.Sometimes we dont even block it the right way, he just finds a way where he can bounce back outside and drop his pads and just run through people, Strong said.Heres some things to watch for when Texas hosts Iowa State:FOURTH QUARTER FOLLIES: Iowa State is a rapidly improving team mostly because the Cyclones cant hold a lead in the fourth quarter. Iowa State has taken double-digit leads into the fourth quarter its last two games only to lose both .The Cyclones are averaging 39 points in their last three games and now face a Texas defense thats given up at least 45 four times this season.BIG-PLAY CYCLONE: Texas defenses have been allowing career games by big-play wide receivers all season and Iowa States Allen Lazard or Trever Ryen could be next. Those two caught three touchdown passes last week against Oklahoma State. At 6-foot-5, 223 pounds, Lazard is a handful for any defensive back to handle.STRONGS MUST WIN: Texas has never started 0-3 in the Big 12 and losing to an Iowa State program that has just two wins in the history of the series likely seals Strongs fate. Iowa State drubbed Texas 24-0 last season in Ames in arguably Strongs worst loss in the last three seasons.TEXAS PASS RUSH: Despite terrible problems in coverage, Texas had been good at getting pressure on quarterbacks until last week against Oklahoma, when they didnt have a sack until late in the fourth quarter. The Longhorns secondary needs all the help it can get, starting with the guys up front.WHERES JEFFERSON?: Texas is looking for big plays from Jefferson, who many regard among one of the Big 12s best defensive players. But while Jefferson ranks second on the team with 30 tackles, he has just one sack with no interceptions or forced fumbles through the first five games as the defense reels.

Cheap Jerseys Online .C. -- Todd Fiddler scored a hat trick, including the overtime goal, as the Prince George Cougars survived an 8-7 win against the Kamloops Blazers in Western Hockey League play Sunday. Soccer Jerseys China . -- If this was Aaron Gordons final home game at Arizona, and it almost certainly was, then he went out in style. Twelfth-ranked Saint Marys owns the highest ranking in school history this week, and the Gaels (5-0) might even climb into the top 10 next week if they win their game at Stanford on Wednesday (11 p.m. ET, Pac-12 Network).This might be the Gaels toughest game so far, partly because it will be on their opponents home court and partly because the Cardinal (6-1) played well in a recent tournament in Orlando, Fla.Although Stanford lost to Miami (Fla.) in its first game of the AdvoCare Invitational, it rebounded to beat Indiana State 65-62 and Seton Hall 66-52 in its next two games.First-year Stanford coach Jerod Haase was particularly pleased with the way his team responded after Seton Hall shot out to a 20-10 lead Sunday.They punched us in the mouth the first 10 minutes and we kind of stumbled back, Haase said, according to the Bay Area News Group. I challenged them. Im so proud of how they bounced back and contained it for the last 30 minutes.Guard Dorian Pickens was the Stanford star of the two tournament victories, hitting the game-winning 3-pointer against Indiana State and scoring 21 points in the win over Seton Hall.Dorian is so smooth, so confident, so fluid, Haase said.Pickens shoots 50.7 percent overall, 45.2 percent on 3-pointers and 84.6 percent from the foul line. He provides a challenge for Saint Marys backcourt of Joe Rahon and Emmett Naar, both of whom were all-West Coast Conference selections last season and played a solid game in the Gaels 76-63 victory over UAB in Las Vegas on Sunday.Our guards really did a good job of controlling the game, Saint Marys coach Randy Bennett said.Rahon and Naar had seven assists apiece in that game, and both played all 40 minutes.Naar also made 2 of 3 3-pointers and has hit 54.5 percent of his long-range shots this season. Stefan Gonzalez came off the bench to hit 4 of 6 3-point shots against UAB, improving his season success rate from beyond the arc to 55.6 percent.Got some big minutes ouut of Stef, Bennett said.dddddddddddd He hit some big shots for us.The Gaels are outstanding shooters, making 39.8 percent of their 3-point shots and 82.7 percent of their free throws, which ranks third in the country.Despite the strong play of Pickens, Naar and Rahon, the biggest scoring threats of both teams reside in the paint.Stanfords 6-foot-8 Reid Travis scored in double figures in all seven games and is averaging 17.4 points on 55.4 percent shooting while collecting 10.1 rebounds a game. The Gaels 6-11 Jock Landale averages 21.0 points (on 76.3 percent shooting) and 9.2 rebounds.The Cardinal have a second inside presence in Michael Humphrey, an athletic 6-9 post player who has not been as productive as expected. He averages just 7.9 points per game after scoring 10.3 points per game last season.Stanfords biggest improvement from last season may be at the defensive end. The Cardinal allowed their first seven opponents to shoot just 37 percent from the field after yielding 46 percent shooting during last seasons 15-15 campaign, which led to the firing of coach Johnny Dawkins.Bennett has a reputation for getting the most out of his team defensively, but he is not satisfied by what he is seeing so far. Saint Marys is allowing opponents to shoot 43.5 percent from the field.We had some good stretches tonight (defensively), Bennett said after the UAB game. We need more of them. We probably had 25 minutes of good defense; thats got to get closer to 37, 38 minutes, and I think thats where we were last year.Bennett hopes a healthy Dane Pineau will help. Pineau, a forward and a preseason all-conference selection, missed last weeks San Jose State game with back spasms and played only limited minutes in the other four games because of the back issue. He is expected to see more playing time against the Cardinal.
