Here are some things to watch when the Big 12 Conference wraps its regular season in Week 14, when the other Power Five conferences play their championship games:GAME OF THE WEEKNo. 11 Oklahoma State (9-2, 7-1 Big 12, No. 10 CFP) at No. 7 Oklahoma (9-2, 8-0 Big 12, No. 9 CFP). A year before the league reinstates its title game, the Bedlam rivalry serves as a de facto Big 12 championship game for the second year in a row. Neither team has lost since September. The winner will be the Big 12 champion and head to the Sugar Bowl to face an SEC team. The Sooners are going for their 10th Big 12 title while trying to become the first team to go undefeated in league play since going to a round-robin schedule in 2011. Oklahoma has an eight-game winning streak; the Cowboys have won seven in a row.BEST MATCHUPTCU coach and Kansas State alum Gary Patterson vs. the Wildcats. While Patterson sets a TCU record when he coaches his 202nd game, K-State coach Bill Snyder goes for his 201st victory. In Big 12 games this season, Kansas State is averaging 30.6 points a game, and TCU 30.5. On defense, Pattersons squad allows 27.9 points per game, and the Wildcats give up 27.2 a game. TCU (6-5, 4-4 Big 12) got bowl eligible with its win last week over Texas. The Wildcats (7-4, 5-3) will finish no lower than fourth in the Big 12 after being a preseason pick for eighth.INSIDE THE NUMBERSSnyder (200 wins), Oklahomas Bob Stoops (188) and Patterson (149) are 1-2-3 among active FBS coaches for wins at their current schools. ... Baylor (6-5, 3-5) got bowl eligible with its 6-0 start, but goes to West Virginia with a five-game losing streak, the Bears longest since dropping nine in a row -- the last eight games of the 2007 season and then the 2008 opener. ... Texas junior running back DOnta Foreman will finish his college career with a school-record 13 consecutive 100-yard games. Foreman said hes skipping his senior season after rushing for 2,028 yards and 15 TDs this year.LONG SHOTThe Big 12 getting into the four-team College Football Playoff since Oklahoma is ninth and Oklahoma State 10th in the latest CFP rankings. Defending national champion Alabama and Ohio State, which won first CFP title two seasons ago, are 1-2 and seem almost certain locks for the field. Also ranked ahead of the Big 12 teams are potential ACC champion Clemson, and the four teams that will play in the Big Ten and Pac-12 championship games.IMPACT PERFORMERMartell Pettaway was going to redshirt at West Virginia (9-2, 6-2) -- until the 11th game this season. With injuries to other running backs, the freshman made his Mountaineers debut with 181 yards on 30 carries last week at Iowa State.---Compiled by AP Sports Writer Stephen Hawkins in Fort Worth, Texas.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 Taven Bryan Jersey . The Browns coaching search remains incomplete. Womens Jaguars Jerseys . The Canadian squad, skipped by Jennifer Jones of Winnipeg, got on the board first with two in the second end, and followed that with two more apiece in the fourth and sixth ends. http://www.officialjaguarsnflauthenticshop.com/will-richardson-stitched-jersey/ . On Mar. 16, coming off a "fight of the year" performance at UFC 154 the previous November, St-Pierre faced Nick Diaz at UFC 158 in what would be his eighth defence of the welterweight title. Using his superior athleticism, St-Pierre cruised to a five round, unanimous decision victory setting up a much-anticipated title defence against number one contender Johny Hendricks. Leon Jacobs Jersey .ca. Kerry, Just watched the shootout in the Coyotes/Leafs game and I have to ask, why was the James van Riemsdyk goal allowed to count? All of the video replays we were shown on TV were inconclusive about whether the puck had entirely crossed the line or not. Cheap Jaguars Jerseys . Barcelona also left injured defenders Carles Puyol, Javier Mascherano and Jordi Alba out of its squad for the trip to Glasgow. That means that Marc Bartra will probably start again in the centre of the defence alongside Gerard Pique. This story is part of ESPN The Magazines Oct. 31 NBA Preview Issue.

This year, however, was a reminder of how far the Jazz have to go: They finished third in the Northwest Division, missed the playoffs for the fourth straight year and fell three spots in these rankings.Whats goodThe Jazz continue to be one of the more affordable franchises in the country (19th in sports in these standings). The average cost of a game at Vivint Smart Home Arena is $66.02, the ninth-lowest among NBA venues and $15 less than the league-wide average. Team ownership (ranked No. 22 overall) isnt falling into the tank-and-pray trap, either, despite Utahs inability to sneak into the playoffs the past three seasons. CEO Gail Miller announced $110 million in renovations to the arena that will be completed before the 2017-18 season, and the Jazz gave a lengthy extension to coach Quin Snyder, one of the best in the business since he arrived in Utah.Whats badThe Jazz are in an unenviable position, both in their division and in their conference, which might explain a 103rd-place title track rankingg.dddddddddddd Only seven NBA teams scored worse when fans were asked if their teams would win a title in their lifetimes (even the Knicks scored better than the Jazz). That said, this season, the team has enough talent that it might be able to turn in its first playoff appearance since the 2011-12 season. Four Jazz players are among the top 100 in the NBA in player efficiency rating, and Dante Exums return might be an X factor for Utah. Still, the team has gone nearly a decade without a conference finals appearance, and this isnt likely the year it will break that streak.Whats newRemember that whole renovation thing? Well, in the meantime, Smart Home Arena remains a quarter-century-old building that has had very little done to it, other than some cosmetic and tech improvements. That pushed Utah down 20 spots in stadium experience this year, into not only the bottom half of the NBA in this metric but also the bottom half across sports. Construction on the arena is scheduled to begin when the 2016-17 season ends and finish before the start of 2017-18. Thats a tight window for completion, but if Utah can get it done, its ranking might wind up as rejuvenated as its arena.Next: Portland Trail Blazers?| Full rankings Cheap Jerseys Store Discount NFL Jerseys Wholesale Authentic Jerseys Cheap Jerseys 2018 Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
