Ohio State, Louisville and Miami were the first three teams to score 70 or more points in a game.Yes, Louisvilles Lamar Jackson was amazing in accounting for a school-record eight touchdowns against second-year FBS team Charlotte, and Miami beat FCS Florida A&M in every way imaginable.Ohio State, though, had the most dominant outing of college footballs opening weekend.The Buckeyes 77-10 rout of Bowling Green was their largest margin of victory over an FBS opponent since a 72-0 win over Pittsburgh in 1996 and the most points theyve scored since an 83-21 hammering of Iowa in 1950.The dismantling of BG was more remarkable than that long-ago win over Iowa. The Hawkeyes made it easy for the Buckeyes back in 50, fumbling on their first play and totaling 12 turnovers. Bowling Green committed three turnovers Saturday, and Ohio State had eight touchdown drives of at least 65 yards.Some more notable statistical feats from Week 1:GRAND GRAD TRANSFERSHigh-profile graduate transfer quarterbacks Trevor Knight, Dakota Prukop and Davis Webb had big openers.Knight threw for 239 yards and a touchdown and ran for two more scores, including one in overtime, to lead Texas A&M to its victory over UCLA. Prukop passed for 271 yards and three TDs in Oregons win over UC Davis. Webb was 38 of 54 for 441 yards and four TDs in Californias victory over Hawaii in Australia.On the defensive side, Illinois grad transfer linebacker Hardy Nickerson had a team-leading 11 tackles against Kent State and, going back to his time at Cal, has nine straight games with 10 or more stops.TAKE THAT, BIG BROTHERFlorida State freshman Ricky Aguayo set the school record for field goals with six against Mississippi on Monday night in his first college game.Thats one more than his brother, Roberto, ever kicked in a game for the Seminoles. Roberto Aguayo finished his FSU career in 2015, leaving as a two-time Associated Press All-American and 2013 Lou Groza Award winner as the nations top kicker.GO-GO LOBOSAfter breaking a nation-leading 11 plays of 60 yards or longer last season, New Mexico had four in its opener against South Dakota. The Lobos, with 615 total yards against the Coyotes, have gone over 500 in three straight games. Their 428 rushing yards tie them with Utah State for No. 1 nationally.STREAKING SAN DIEGO STATEWith its 31-0 win over New Hampshire, San Diego State was among five teams to post shutouts, all against FCS opponents. The Aztecs won their 11th game in a row and are on their longest streak since a 21-gamer from 1968-70. Only Alabama, at 13 games, has a longer active streak.SOMEONE HAD TO WINDivision III Southern Virginias 28-18 road win over Earlham (Indiana) ended a stretch in which the Knights had lost 11 in a row and 19 of their last 20. While going 0-10 last season, the Knights gave up an average of 50 points and lost one game 91-7. Earlham now has lost 24 in a row, the longest current skid in Division III, according to D3sports.com.---Online: AP college football website: http://collegefootball.ap.org Ashley Young Jersey . The CFLs leading rusher kept adding to his gaudy numbers this season and scored the winning touchdown with just over two minutes to play. The New Westminster, B.C., native plowed three yards into the end zone for the last score of a heated, see-saw battle between the two teams with the best records in the CFL. Paul Pogba Jersey . And follow TSN.ca right through Deadline Day for all the updates. From Pierre LeBrun While Anaheim GM Bob Murray said earlier this season he was not going to trade Jonas Hiller despite the fact hes an unrestricted free agent on July 1, some sources have told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun that Murray might be willing to move another goalie. http://www.manunitedfcpro.com/Kids-Joel-Castro-Pereira-Jersey/ . -- On the field, it was business as usual for Jameis Winston and No. Jesse Lingard Jersey . John Tavares, Thomas Vanek and Kyle Okposo were also being counted on to slow down sizzling Rangers forward Rick Nash. That plan didnt go so well early. Ander Herrera Jersey . -- PGA TOUR Canada member Steve Saunders took a three-stroke lead Saturday in the Web. Zimbabwe coach Heath Streak lost his gruntle. While Zimbabwe was able to take heart from the way they resisted defeat during the Test series, Streak opened the press conference after his sides eight-wicket thrashing in the tri-series opener by admitting: I wont have too many positives today.Streak seemed particularly vexed by the white flag Zimbabwe raised through their body language. Your positivity and your mental outlook is affected by your body language and how youre thinking, Streak said. Yes, you may not feel youve got enough runs on the board but it doesnt stop you going out there and being positive and aggressive and supporting your team-mates. Diving around and getting energy going. You dont need talent to do that. Those are things that anyone can do.Its something we talk about a lot, the scoreboard not impacting on your actions and your outlook on what youre trying to achieve out there. But often it does and for people outside - media, supporters - they see that probably more than the players do inside. Its certainly something that Im putting a high priority on addressing.Though Zimbabwes 154 was woefully under par, the tri-series opener really seemed to turn on the first ball of Zimbabwes bowling effort. Tinashe Panyangara, returning to the side after overcoming a back injury that kept him out of the squad since June, produced a delivery that curled away to take Dhananjaya de Silvas outside edge. Almost immediately, however, Umpire Tiffin called a no-ball, and just as quickly Zimbabwes vim disappeared. The free-hit was clumped to midwicket, and the floodgates opened. Despite helpful conditions, the bowlers could make nothing more of the game.De Silva, Man of the Match for his unbeaten 78, admitted his dismissal at that stage could very much have made a difference to the result. The ball was seaming around and if I had got out at that time, maybe three or more wickets would have fallen, de Silva said. De Silva, who struck a fifty and a ton in the Tests, suggested Sri Lanka too was surprised by the depths of Zimbabwes batting woes. Some guys just threw their wicckets away.dddddddddddd They could have achieved 200 or 220 and that would have given them a good chance to come back into the game.No need to tell Streak that. Certainly we had the tougher side of the batting, but when you look back, bar Chari no one really got a ball that they can say was an unplayable delivery, Streak said. Yes, conditions were in their favour, but there were not enough people coming in and saying they got out to a good ball.Despite batting on a green pitch and under gloomy skies in the morning that aided swing, Streak refused to blame the conditions - or the toss - for his teams collapse. Having had late rain yesterday, the covers came off late, and we had a bit of drizzle [this morning]. Losing the toss wasnt great, but it also wasnt any excuse for how we performed.The toss has always been in the game of cricket and thats not something you can guarantee. If you can only win cricket matches when you win the toss then theres a serious issue to address. For me, today there was an advantage to the toss that would have made it 60-40 in favour of whoever wins the toss, but there are still no excuses for a batting performance like that. PJ Moor and some of the lower order guys like Cremer and Tiripano showed that when you applied yourself there were runs to be scored.Still, Zimbabwe has three more games to play, and those will be in Bulawayo - Streaks hometown and conditions he is familiar with. I said to the guys the only positive for me is that weve got three more games, Streak said.There werent really many other positives. The reality is that we have to bat, bowl and field better than we did today otherwise were not going to feature in this series. Its certainly within their own hands. Theres also lots of work for me and the coaching staff to do, but we talk about people taking responsibility and when you say that generally youre looking at your senior players to do that. Theyre going to have to start putting their hands up.
