NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Vanderbilt Commodores need two victories in their final two games to become bowl eligible for the first time since 2013. With both games at home, they know exactly what they cant do.Start slowly.The Commodores fell behind 19-0 last week at Missouri and wound up losing 26-17 . That dropped Vanderbilt to 4-6 overall and 1-5 in the Southeastern Conference, and coach Derek Mason said Tuesday he believes his team got a great reminder that they arent built to spot opponents a lead.We have to play with a better sense of urgency in these ballgames, Mason said. Every ballgame that weve played in has come down to a possession or two. When you have ballgames that are that tight you have to make sure that the football is good and youre executing well that you look to finish.The Commodores have been so close with each of their SEC losses with the game at Missouri coming by their largest margin. They answered with 17 points as Kyle Shurmur threw for 252 yards, his second-best performance this season. But Shurmur also was intercepted twice, and it just wasnt enough.Vanderbilts APR is so good that the Commodores could be a possible bowl pick if they could reach five victories. Bowl eligibility isnt a topic Mason is addressing with his Commodores, focusing instead on just trying to win Saturday night when they host Mississippi (5-5, 2-4). Vanderbilt wraps up the regular season Nov. 26 hosting in-state rival Tennessee.Even splitting these final games would put Mason his best record yet at Vandy. Mason isnt changing his approach.Weve got to stay in the here and now, Mason said. For these guys, social medias out there. They know whats at stake. I just try to talk about the mundane thing of doing the every day things that it takes to win. So thats putting good work on top of good work stacking good practices on top of good practices and getting ready to play a good Ole Miss football team.Ole Miss is coming off a big 29-28 upset at then-No. 8 Texas A&M in freshman quarterback Shea Pattersons debut. The Rebels have scored first in nine of their 10 games, and Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze has not lost to Mason each of the past two seasons.But the Rebels only won 27-16 at Oxford last season, and Freeze has seen enough of Mason to respect the coach in beating Vandy each of the past two seasons.Hes given us problems every year, Freeze said of Mason. Hes very good. Hes a very good defensive coach, and his kids play fundamentally extremely well. They play in the right spots. Theyre fundamentally sound. So, youve got to be careful against them not to get one play behind in the calls. Every call you have, we need to have answers for what we do.The one answer Vanderbilt defensive lineman Adam Butler is sure of is that the Commodores have no excuse not to be ready for kickoff.That cant happen these next two games, Butler said. These next two games we have to be ready and make sure were ready and come out with that good start.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org Nike Air Force Ελλαδα .Y. -- Sabres defenceman Tyler Myers had no intention of changing his hard-hitting style before taking part in a disciplinary hearing for his illegal check to New Jersey forward Dainius Zubrus head.

Nike Air Force 1 Low Φθηνα .com) - The Montreal Canadiens embark on their first road trip of the season as they head out west to battle the Calgary Flames on Wednesday night. Missy Franklin and Ryan Lochte will be busy in the pool at the Rio Olympics. Just not as busy as they wanted to be.The two popular stars from the U.S. swimming team four years ago in London have just three individual events between them in Rio, hardly the frenetic schedule theyve grown accustomed to over the years.Four years ago, Franklin swam four individual events and three relays, while Lochte had four individual events, plus two relays. Together, they won 10 medals.This time, neither will defend their Olympic titles in two events. Franklin failed to qualify for the 100-meter backstroke at the recent U.S. trials, while Lochte, bothered by a groin injury, didnt make the team in the 400 individual medley.The perpetually upbeat Franklin put a positive spin on her reduced schedule that will give her more time in the stands cheering on her teammates.Im still a second-time Olympian, I get to go to Rio, I get to be a part of this team, she said.Franklins seventh-place finish in the 100 back at trials had her in the unusual position of publicly working through major disappointment.You have this idea in your head that everyones careers are perfect all the time, and as soon as yours starts to waver a little bit you start wondering, `Oh my goodness, why is this happening? she said. You sort of start to realize no one has the perfect career, no one makes every team in every event that they want to.At 17, Franklin was one of the biggest stars at the London Olympics, competing in seven events and winning four gold medals and a bronze. Away from the pool, she didnt cash in right away since she wanted to compete collegiately.After two years at California, Franklin turned pro last year, setting up major endorsement deals heading into Rio. Shes found it challenging balancing training with accommodating sponsors demands for photo shoots, commercials and appearances.Its fun, absolutely, but that doesnt mean its not hard, she said. Its definitely more to juggle than what I had to in 2012. I definitely have some days when I wake up and Im more tired than normal.Also making it difficult is Franklins inclination to please others, sometimes at her expense. Shes had to learn to say no and not feel guilty.She will literally look at somebody and say, `Have you had enough pictures? Im going to start my practice now, her coach Todd Schmitz said.dddddddddddd. I stand there and go, `Good, yes. Ive always told her I will be the bad guy every single time, but I cant always be there.Schmitz will be part of Franklins support team in Rio, although not as a member of the U.S. coaching staff as he was four years ago.But, while Franklin has more money in her pocket, its been a struggle to regain the form that made her the worlds most dominant female swimmer -- a title ceded to fellow American Katie Ledecky.One of the things Ive been trying to do this whole year is not compare myself to where I was in 2012, said Franklin, who returned home to Colorado to train with Schmitz. I came in here to be the best of who I am right now, not who I was four years ago.Franklin will try to better her fourth-place finish from London when she competes in the 200 freestyle and defends her gold in the 200 backstroke in Rio, while Lochte swims the 200 IM, where hes medaled in three straight Olympics. Both qualified to swim on the womens and mens 800 free relay.Lochte turns 32 on Aug. 3, two days before the games open. He has 11 career medals going into his fourth Olympics.Its a lot harder because Im older, he said. I cant put my body through certain practices or sets that I used to be able to do.In London, Lochte won the 400 IM on the first day of the eight-day competition, and then made what he called his biggest mistake of the games.I didnt do the right recovery process after that win because I was just like, `Screw this, Im happy, he recalled. I think that kind of hurt me throughout the meet. Now that Ive gotten more mature, Im listening to my body more.Hes also listening to coach Dave Marsh, who will oversee the U.S. womens team in Rio. After London, Lochte relocated his training base to Charlotte, North Carolina, and cut back his partying lifestyle in favor of more time in the pool.When hes in the water working hard, hes probably his most happy, Marsh said.After Rio, Franklin will return to college. Lochte is likely to keep swimming, as long as hes still having fun.I said the day you finish is the day youre going to meet up with a girl and have grandchildren, his mother Ike Lochte said. He just laughs at me. ' ' '
