COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Saturday morning, Missouri coach Barry Odom woke up to a text message informing him of something he did not know; since 1957, only one Missouri coach-Bob Stull in 1989-won in their home debut.Make that two.Drew Lock tied a school-record with five touchdown passes as Missouri ran away with its home opener, defeating Eastern Michigan 61-21 Saturday.Odom, who was a linebacker for Missouri from 1996-99, discussed the surreal nature of earning his first home win as coach of his alma mater.It got to me a little bit tonight. Id be lying if I said it didnt...I feel the responsibility to do it right, because there are so many people that have worked so hard to put this program where it is.Lock completed 24 of 37 pass attempts for 450 yards, only 30 yards shy of the school record.He did some really good things tonight, Odom said of Lock. He is doing a great job of running our offense, and things are slowing down tremendously for him. I think he will continue to grow by learning from his mistakes, while learning from the good things he does as well.The Tigers (1-1) amassed 647 yards of total offense, the most since Sept. 17, 2011. Running backs Demarea Crockett and Ish Witter combined for 25 rushes, 129 yards and two touchdowns.Ray Wingo led Missouri in receiving yards with 125 on just three catches, one of which was a 52-yard touchdown midway through the third quarter. Johnathon Johnson caught five passes for 115 yards and a touchdown, and Emmanuel Hall had three catches for 90 yards.Their passing attack proved to be too strong, said Eastern Michigan coach Chris Creighton, who is now 4-22 in three seasons with the school. The long balls, and even just the quick game, would eat up yards. They did a really good job of that.We just got run by on some of those long balls, and some well-placed balls, and some speed and size at receiver that we just werent able to combat.On the final play of the first quarter, Johnson bobbled a high-arcing punt near midfield, but recovered and took it 54 yards for a touchdown. He finished with 210 all-purpose yards.It was scramble mode, Johnson said of the circus play. I had to pick it back up. I knew I had muffed it, so I was just trying to get it back up, and I just cut it across the field.Odom said hes seen this type of playmaking ability from Johnson before.The things he did on the field tonight, he does in practice on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Its important to him that he is a total package player, having the ability to not only play out wide, but to return punts and block. He is only going to get better.Eastern Michigan quarterback Todd Porter was 23 of 45 for 287 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions. He also rushed 13 times for 46 yards and one touchdown.The Eagles (1-1) struggled offensively, especially in the first half. Their first seven drives consisted of five punts, an interception and a 1-yard touchdown run. They converted 11 of 21 third down attempts and were 0 for 1 on fourth down.Missouri cornerback Aarion Penton broke up three passes, made two tackles and had an interception, but left the game with a sprained shoulder and did not return.Eastern Michigan cornerback Juan Giraldo was ejected early in the fourth quarter for a targeting hit on Missouri receiver Keyon Dilosa.TAKEAWAYSMissouri: In a 26-11 loss at West Virginia last week, Missouris offense ran 100 plays, more than any team in the nation. That tempo slowed somewhat Saturday, as the Tigers ran 78 plays. However, they nearly doubled their average yards per play, from 4.6 against West Virginia to 8.3 against the Eagles, and scored the most points since a 62-10 win against Southeast Louisiana Sept. 1, 2012.Eastern Michigan: Starting running back Shaq Vann was limited to just one carry for 10 yards. Vann injured his shoulder early in the first quarter and did not return. Ian Eriksen became the Eagles primary ball carrier with Vann on the sidelines, rushing 23 times for 90 yards and a touchdown.UP NEXTMissouri: The Tigers host Georgia (2-0) next Saturday night. The Bulldogs defeated Missouri 10-9 last season in Athens.Eastern Michigan: The Eagles travel to UNC Charlotte (1-1) next Saturday in the first meeting between the schools. The 49ers football program began in 2013. Golden State Warriors Jerseys . The defence is doing its part, too. Drew Brees threw a pair of touchdown passes in the first half and the guys on the other side made sure that was enough, sending the Saints to a 17-13 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday night. Patrick McCaw Jersey . The 31-year-old Spain midfielder hasnt played since Madrid lost in the Copa del Rey final to Atletico Madrid in May due to back and foot injuries. http://www.cheapwarriorsjerseysauthentic.com/ .

The parade and rally were held to celebrate the Saskatchewan Roughriders 45-23 win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Sunday in the CFLs championship game. RIO DE JANEIRO -- Switzerlands Fabian Cancellara announced last winter that he will be retiring at the end of this cycling season. After he won the gold medal in the mens time trial Wednesday at age 35 and Kristin Armstrong won the womens time trial just one day short of her 43rd birthday, he was asked whether he might reconsider retiring.No, he swiftly replied. Definitely not.If youre 35 or 43 or whatever your age, its everyones choice, he continued. I knew it was going to be a special year when I said I would retire at the end of the season.Cancellara said he was uncertain whether he will ride in another race again this year, but if not, he went out in special fashion. Riding a difficult course in windy, drizzly conditions, the man known as Spartacus won with a time of 1 hour, 12.15 seconds that was 15 seconds faster than silver medalist Tom Dumoulin of the Netherlands. Tour de France champ Chris Froome took bronze.That guy came by me pretty fast, American Taylor Phinney said of Cancellara. Hes somebody I always looked up. Talk about somebody who believes in himself and has put in a great career. So Im happy for him. Hopefully this can be a nice cherry on top of a big career.Cancellara, who has been racing professionally for 16 years, is one of the sports top and most famous cyclists. A great rider in the Classics, he also has worn the yellow jersey in the Tour de France 29 times while winning seven stages there. He won a gold medal in the time trial at the 2008 Olympics as well.Im just grateful I came out here and I was healthy and I came through, Cancellara said. Im just super proud. Reaching this today means a lot for me. This is sports highest event that the world presents. And when you win a gold medal in your retirement year? I think Im just proud.This wont give me any doubts about my retirement.Phinney finished 22nd, five minutes and nine seconds behind Cancellara, while fellow U.dddddddddddd.S. rider Brent Bookwalter was 23rd. The son of Olympic medalists David Phinney and Connie Carpenter-Phinney, Taylor Phinneys career took a gruesome hit two years ago when he suffered a severe leg fracture.Phinney was disappointed by his finish and frustrated with the steep climbing on the course -- It was definitely a bitch -- but says he feels better where he is now after recovering from his broken leg.I have the motivation, I have the determination, he said. Considering the last couple years I have to be happy. Happy with where my heads at, happy with where my bodys at. He said riding Wednesday was a step up, albeit not a step as quite as I had dreamed.At 26, Phinney is a much younger athlete than Cancellara or Armstrong, but he will be 30 when the 2020 Olympics are held, and he looks to perform better there. Considering how well the older cyclists did Wednesday, he has plenty of motivation.Im motivated to do what I can over the next four years and continue to grow, he said. Honestly, I was in a head space even a couple months ago where I was really down on this sport. And being able to train for this has really turned my head around and gotten me to a point where I understand what Im doing here. And thats all you can really hope for.Cancellara, however, will not be competing against him. Hell just be looking back at everything he has accomplished, including Wednesdays gold medal ride.It was a perfect day, Cancellara said. A perfect day to make history and make another hook you can put on the side and look back on everything you did. ... Reaching this makes me proud and super happy and thankful for this day.
