Air Jordan 5 Wholesale .San Diego State is now back in the rankings at No. 24 and will seek a better result when it travels to play Wyoming in Mountain West play on Saturday (3:30 p.m., CBS Sports Network).The earlier ranking marked the first time the Aztecs had been nationally ranked since 1995. Living up to the billing proved difficult as South Alabama rolled to a 42-24 win over San Diego State.The Aztecs quickly fell out of the rankings and have since responded with six consecutive victories. This time, the players feel more comfortable having nationally ranked tagged to their program.That was just a tough game. We had some bad luck in that one, senior defensive end Kyle Kelley said of the South Alabama loss at Tuesdays press conference. We dont take into account the rankings that much. Were just worried about the (Wyoming) game itself. I dont really care if we are ranked right now. It all depends if we are ranked at the end of the year. Thats my main goal.San Diego State (9-1, 6-0) has already clinched the Pacific Division of the Mountain West and will play in the conference title game. Continue to win and the Aztecs will have a chance at landing a spot in the Cotton Bowl.Aztecs coach Rocky Long said those goals mean more to him than being ranked.Our team wants to win the conference championship, Long said. Im sure they are happy that we are back in the Top 25, even though I told them that it doesnt matter until the end of the season.Our motivation is that we want to win the rest of the games because there are a lot of good things that can happen after the season if we can win them all. We might get to play in a New Years Day bowl game, wed be the conference champions. There are incentives out there.Wyoming has its own dose of incentive this week as it continues pursuit of winning the conferences Mountain Division.The Cowboys (7-3, 5-1) are tied for first place with Boise State and New Mexico but hurt their chances with last Saturdays 69-66 triple-overtime loss to UNLV.It was a game that came down to a play here or there, Wyoming coach Craig Bohl said. There certainly were a lot of plays in the ballgame -- some really good and some not so good.I think its important that we move forward and hang together as a football team. And as coaches, there are a lot of things that weve got to clean up within a short week.One area in which the Cowboys will need to be strong is defending the run as San Diego State rushed for a school-record 474 yards in last Saturdays 46-16 victory over Nevada.Aztecs senior running back Donnel Pumphrey leads the nation with 1,779 rushing yards and moved into fourth place in FBS history with 6,051 yards.Pumphrey needs 32 yards to move past third-place Tony Dorsett (Pittsburgh) and is also moving within range of second-place Ricky Williams (6,279) of Texas and record-holder Ron Dayne (6,397) of Wisconsin.He also is tied for ninth on the all-time rushing touchdowns list with 59.Pumphrey rushed for 198 yards in the victory over Nevada and wasnt even the leading rusher on his team. Junior Rashaad Penny topped him by rushing for a career-best 208 yards.Wyoming also features a standout back in junior Brian Hill, who ranks third in the nation with 1,417 yards. Hill stands third in Mountain West history with 3,844 career rushing yards but could find running room to be a challenge against the Aztecs, who rank second nationally in rushing defense (86.4 yards per game).Cowboys sophomore quarterback Josh Allen passed for a career-best 334 yards and four touchdowns in the loss to UNLV -- which was the third-highest scoring game in FBS history. Allen has passed for 2,218 yards and 21 touchdowns against 10 interceptions.Senior wideout Tanner Gentry is also having solid season with 53 receptions for 962 yards and a conference-leading 11 touchdowns.Sophomore free safety Andrew Wingard leads the Wyoming defense with 99 tackles. Sophomore strong safety Marcus Epps, sophomore cornerback Antonio Hull and redshirt freshman weakside linebacker Logan Wilson share the team leadership with three interceptions apiece.Standout San Diego State senior cornerback Damontae Kazee has five interceptions this season and holds the school career mark of 15.The Aztecs rushed for 293 yards while rolling to a 38-3 victory over Wyoming last season.

For those heading to the Olympic golf tournament -- at least the highest-ranked players -- it is five big events in a nine-week stretch on three continents.Throw in those who went to the Canadian Open and its four different countries. Then just two weeks later, the FedExCup playoffs begin, with four tournaments during five weeks followed by the Ryder Cup.But for several top players, all of a sudden the schedule is not so daunting. Jason Day, Dustin Johnson, Jordan Spieth and Rory McIlroy are all skipping the Olympics. Suddenly they have a three-week break prior to the playoffs beginning, as do those who didnt qualify and arent in need of PGA Tour starts to improve their position.It was never the intention of the PGA Tour schedule-makers to have it work out this way. In fact, the schedule has been the source of much consternation as it relates to the Olympics.Now, however, there are no excuses, at least not for those skipping Rio. The FedEx run is still daunting, but not nearly so bad now, certainly not to the level that typically sees players dragging and everyone discussing how to improve the system.2.?Second-guessingThe PGA of America understandably took a few hits over the weekend, first for failing to recognize that a bad weather forecast was going to impact the third round of the PGA Championship and then for taking the unusual step of playing preferred lies for the final round.On the one hand, the PGA said it felt players should go off the first tee and in twosomes whenever possible -- hence little thought was given to going off in threesomes Saturday to try and beat the weather.?But then the PGA did what is believed to have never been done in a major -- lift, clean and place.All that said, the PGA took shots when it was the only organization to really sacrifice for the Olympics. Long before golf was awarded a spot in the Olympics, the PGA of America had picked Baltusrol, as it wanted to celebrate the organizations 100th anniversary near where it all began in New York.The PGA moved up two weeks into an unenviable spot just two weeks after The Open. It was awkward, not ideal for players or fans, and then it resulted in an unlucky weather week. No other golf organization gave up so much to make the Olympics happen. The Masters and U.S. Open didnt have to do much, really.But what if the PGA Tour had moved the Bridgestone to the week prior to the U.S. Open? What if The Open had moved up just one week -- it would have been the same week as Wimbledon -- giving two weeks between it and the PGA?What if the PGA Tour had not scheduled a tournament, the John Deere, the same week as the Olympic tournament? None of it would have been easy. But it might have made things a lot smoother for those involved.3.?Phil getting awayPhil Mickelson has maintained that he wanted to play in the Olympics -- and he would have been in Rio if the deadline for qualifying had been pushed back to after The Open. You know, one of the biggest tournaments in golf.Lefty wont be in Rio, but he will take advantage of the break and said he plans to play in all four FedExCup playoff events -- he didnt qualify for the Tour Championship in each of the past two years.I have not had had three weeks in the summer for over two decades, and Ill take thhese three weeks off and be fresh and ready heading into the FedExCup, Mickelson said.
Cheap Air Jordan 5. Ill take probably the first week off and then really start to get ready. Thats a good stretch of golf those four playoff events and the Ryder Cup. Im looking forward to those five events. This is the first time where Im excited to play all four FedExCup events. Usually I only play three. Ill be fresh and excited to go out in the Ryder Cup, too.At No. 6 in the FedExCup standings, Mickelson is a virtual lock to make it to Atlanta regardless of how he fares in the first three playoff events.4.?Wheres The Beef?Andrew Beef Johnston has proven to be quite a character, and seems to enjoy the attention that is coming his way. The Englishman who won on the European Tour this year and had a top-10 at The Open was a big hit with fans in New Jersey and seemed to enjoy every selfie he took.But he figures not to be back in the U.S. for the rest of this year. Johnston, in fact, turned down sponsor exemptions to the John Deere Classic and Wyndham Championship, electing instead to head home and prepare for the Race to Dubai on the European Tour.5.?Beemer from the galleryIt was a fun, surprising week at the PGA Championship for 2002 champion Rich Beem. He had not played in an official tournament anywhere since a year prior, when he missed the cut at the PGA played at Whistling Straits. He had spent a good part of this year rehabbing a shoulder problem while working full time for Sky Sports in the U.K. And then he chipped in on the final hole and celebrated -- he tied for 71st.6.?Showing respectDuring the third round of the PGA Championship, Padraig Harringtons ball came to rest a yard past a plaque that sits in the fairway at Baltusrols 18th hole. It commemorates the 1-iron shot Jack Nicklaus hit from that spot in the 1967 U.S. Open played at Baltusrol, setting up a birdie that set the tournament scoring record at that time.Harrington said he had 235 yards to the flag from his position and used a 2-hybrid, which is like a 3-iron. Putting it like this, we (he and caddie Ronan Flood) discussed it after I hit my shot, Harrington said. How impressive hitting a 1-iron up the hill would have been in those days. It was seriously impressive. I was happy we have hybrids these days.7.?Olympic prepThere are six players in this weeks Travelers Championship field who are headed to the Olympic golf tournament next week, including three Americans: Bubba Watson, Patrick Reed and Matt Kuchar. The other U.S. player is Rickie Fowler.All four happen to be on the bubble for the U.S. Ryder Cup team, in spots 9 through 12. The top 8 through the Barclays will automatically make the team. The others in the Travelers field who are headed to Rio are Germanys Alex Cejka, Denmarks Soren Kjeldsen and Irelands Padraig Harrington.8.?The aggregate major championIf you added up the scorers from all 16 majors championship rounds this year, Jason Day performed the best -- by 12 shots. Day, the No. 1-ranked player in the world, finished a total of 9 under par for those 16 rounds, followed by Jordan Spieth at +3. Emiliano Grillo was next at +10.The only major champion this year to make the cut in all four majors was Masters champ Danny Willett, who finished +16. The others to make the cut in all four were Kevin Na, Lee Westwood, Rafael Cabrera-Bello, Martin Kaymer, Bill Haas, Adam Scott, Bubba Watson, Harris English, Justin Thomas and Kevin Kisner.9.?Four majors, four new champions ' ' '
