Austin, TX (SportsNetwork.
Thiago Silva Paris Saint-Germain Jersey .com) - Anthony Brown scored a season-high 25 points, including the go-ahead layup with 1:08 remaining in overtime, as Stanford upset No. 9 Texas, 74-71, at the Erwin Center. Chasson Randle added 22 points and combined with Brown to go 7-of-12 from 3- point range to help the Cardinal snap a 15-game win streak for the Longhorns on their home court. Stanford (7-3) shot 43.3 percent from the field, the highest percentage by any Texas opponent this season, and received a career-best 14 rebounds from freshman Reid Travis to earn their first true road win of the season. I thought those guys were tougher. From start to finish, Texas head coach Rick Barnes said of Stanford. Javan Felix finished with 19 points for Texas (10-2), but missed a contested 3-point try with time winding down in overtime that sealed the outcome. Jonathan Holmes and Kendal Yancy each had 14 points in the loss. Felixs baseline jumper with a defender in his face with 1:30 left in overtime gave Texas a 71-70 edge, but Brown drove hard to the rim on the ensuing possession and got a one-hander to fall to put the Cardinal back on top in a game in which neither team could separate from the other. I wanted to be aggressive, Brown said. I wanted to have no regrets. Felix then was short on a 3-pointer and the Longhorns couldnt corral the rebound, with Randle knocking down a stepback jumper on the other end to send Stanford ahead 74-71 with just 10.1 seconds showing. I wanted to create some space, Randle said. I knew if I got that, I was going to get the shot. Following a pair of timeouts, Felix and Demarcus Holland both were off the mark from long distance and the Cardinals Rosco Allen corralled the rebound on the second miss. A back-and-forth second half that had 12 lead changes was knotted at 62-62 entering the final minute. Randle buried a jumper off a screen with 56 seconds to go to break the tie, but Brown was called for a critical charge on Stanfords next trip down the court. Holmes then got the ball out of timeout and swished home an 18-footer with 25.3 seconds left that ultimately forced extra time when the Cardinals Robert Cartwrights floater at the buzzer bounced off the rim. Stanford struggled early on against the Longhorns tight defense, but Brown caught fire late in the first half to put his team in front. The senior book-ended an 8-0 run with a pair of 3-pointers, the last giving the Cardinal a 26-24 edge with 3:11 left in the period. Felix answered with a three of his own, and the teams were deadlocked at 31-31 at the break after Allen made a layup just prior to the buzzer. The teams then traded points all throughout the second half, with Stanford taking its largest lead of the night when Allen drained an open three with 4:46 remaining to make the score 60-56. Felix answered with back-to-back baskets to bring Texas back even with two minutes left.

Neymar Paris Saint-Germain Jersey . As analysts we do the same thing, so here are some observations from week one. First there were two major upsets. I should say, major upsets in the eyes of the fans and prognosticators.
Colin Dagba Jersey .C. -- Jackson Whistle made 26 saves for his first shutout of the season as the Kelowna Rockets blanked the visiting Lethbridge Hurricanes 5-0 on Saturday in Western Hockey League action.AUSTIN, Texas - Race by race and point by point, Lewis Hamilton is tightening his grip on the Formula One world championship and squeezing out Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg.But not so far as to eliminate his rival as a title threat. Not yet.Hamilton won the U.S. Grand Prix on Sunday, moving 24 points clear of Rosberg with just two races left. It was Hamiltons second win in Texas in three years, his 10th on the season and fifth in a row.This whole season has been incredible, Hamilton said after playfully taking former world champion Mario Andrettis black Stetson cowboy hat on the winners podium. I pushed as hard as I could.Mercedes had another 1-2 finish in a dominating season that has pushed Hamilton and Rosberg well clear of the pack in the title chase. Red Bulls Daniel Ricciardo was third for his eighth podium finish on the season.Rosberg could still find a way to steal the title from Hamilton. Formula One moves to Brazil next weekend and the final race in Abu Dhabi will be worth double points in a rule change this season.Full attack, Rosberg said. Well try to be on the pole and win (in Brazil). Theres a lot of points to be had.Hamilton said aggressive driving got him this far and he wont try to dial it back over the final two races.Were hunting for those points. So far, Ive done what Ive needed to do. I should continue to do the same, Hamilton said.Hamiltons victory also was career win No. 32, which passed Nigel Mansell for the most Formula One victories by a British driver. Hamilton won the world title in 2008 with McLaren.The Mercedes drivers have waged a season-long duel for the title, a tense back-and-forth that has strained their long friendship, and Sundays race was more of the same.Rosberg started from pole position and Hamilton chased him for 23 laps, steadily keeping up the pressure and slowing gaining on him. Hamilton finally made his move on lap 24, squeezing inside Rosbergs left on the tight 12th turn out of the long straightaway.It was the same spot and a similar move to Hamiltons pass of Red Bulls Sebastian Vettel that propelled him to the victory here in 2012.There wasnt a place in the race where I didnt think I would catchh him, Hamilton said.
Kylian Mbappe Paris Saint-Germain Jersey. Its such a great feeling to have a race like that.Dropped into second, Rosberg couldnt keep up and Hamilton put more time between their cars with every lap. Hamilton had the more muscular car through the weeks practice sessions, but lost the pole position because of braking problems that dogged his session.After taking the lead, Hamilton quickly built a gap of more than 2.5 seconds. Rosberg tried to claw back but didnt have enough race left to do it. By the final laps, the biggest challenge for Hamilton was not getting caught up or wrecked by other drivers battling for final position.I knew there was a chance he would try. I went halfway defensive, on the pass, Rosberg said. Later I started to find better rhythm, but it was just way too late.Vettel, the defending race and world champion, started from pit lane after incurring a penalty for using his sixth engine of the season. He fought all the way back to finish seventh.Vettel has been surpassed within Red Bull this season by Ricciardo, who has won three times. Vettel is leaving Red Bull at the end of the season, but has yet to confirm where hell drive in 2015.Ricciardo was pleased to get another podium finish.As we know Mercedes is a bit out of reach so third, I think third is the best we could do today, Ricciardo said.The race started with just 18 cars, the smallest field in nearly a decade after financial problems forced teams Marussia and Caterham to drop out.Saturdays practice and qualifying was dominated by speculation that three more struggling teams, Lotus, Sauber and Sahara Force India, could stage a protest by either boycotting the race or pulling out after one lap. Neither threat materialized.The race went under safety car on the first lap when Force Indias Sergio Perez collided with Saubers Adrian Sutil, knocking both drivers out. The crash was a major blow for Sauber, which hoped to capitalize on Sutils first top-10 qualifying position of the season.He completely hit me. He ruined the race and I had to stop. My car was completely broken, Sutil said.Force India then lost its second car when Nico Hulkenberg retired in the 17th lap. ' ' '
