WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- With its losing skid at five and any hope for a bowl game eliminated, Purdue is seeking motivation with No. 6 Wisconsin coming to visit on Saturday and then a season-ending Nov. 26 date at rival Indiana.Interim head coach Gerad Parker has seen his team (3-7, 1-6 Big Ten) play well during the first half against Nebraska, Penn State, Minnesota and Northwestern, only to be outscored 114-17 the rest of the way against those teams.With lots of uncertainty about the programs future, primarily who will be coaching Purdue in 2017, it would be easy for some players and coaches to go through the motions these final two weeks.Parker believes theres plenty of reason to be motivated, starting with the Badgers (8-2, 5-2).This week is fully and completely about our seniors, Parker said Tuesday. The staff has continued to work our tails off. The players have as well, and this week is about our seniors playing their last game in Ross-Ade Stadium. Its a chance for those seniors to play an unbelievable football team in Wisconsin. Those guys want to go out the right way.Purdue has won only one Big Ten home game -- Nebraska in 2015 -- during the seniors careers and is 3-28 overall in conference play since 2013.Its been hard, Parker said, Sadly, the reason we are in this position is because of our past. Everything is contagious. Winning is contagious and losing is contagious. Ive wanted to approach this week by week.Senior wide receiver Bilal Marshall said the opportunity to stun a top 10 team in his final home game would wipe away some of the frustrations of a four-year career in which Purdue has gone 9-37.We have to stick together and not be selfish, Marshall said. For us seniors, its our last two weeks, and our last week in Ross-Ade against a big opponent and obviously, we havent seen the Old Oaken Bucket in forever. For our younger guys, we want to finish strong because no one knows whats going to happen after these last two weeks.Sophomore quarterback David Blough leads the Big Ten in passing yards per game at 292.1, but he has been intercepted 16 times, one of the reasons the Boilermakers are tied for 126th among the 128 FBS programs in turnover margin at minus-16. Bloughs three interceptions against Northwestern this past Saturday set up 17 Wildcats points in their 45-17 victory.We have been in position to succeed and have been coached well, but we havent executed, especially on my behalf, Blough said.Game notes Purdue ranks last in Big Ten scoring defense (38.4), last in total defense (466.9 yards), 13th in rushing defense (248.8 yards) and 11th in pass defense (218.1 yards) ... Parker indicated Tuesday that DT Lorenzo Neal, OT Mike Mendez and RB Richie Worship likely will miss the Wisconsin game because of injuries ... Purdue has not beaten Wisconsin in Ross-Ade Stadium since 1997 ... Purdue has not won a game in November since beating Indiana in 2012.---For more AP college football coverage: http://collegefootball.ap.org Hydro Flask 40 Oz Wide Mouth .

Theres nothing quite as gratifying as an overconfident bad guy getting his comeuppance in the most embarrassing way possible -- and this weeks edition of SmackDown Live delivered as AJ Styles lost to the unlikeliest of foes.Styles celebration of his championship quickly descended into insults and mockery as he used every trick in the book to get the San Jose crowd to turn against him. He could barely contain his glee as he repeated several tropes that good guys tend to rattle off, but Styles failed to mention his use of a chair to get the retain the WWE world championship at No Mercy.I am a winner, and winners find a way to win, Styles started, before repeating I beat Dean Ambrose and John Cena at the same time, over and over again. Rather than just walking away on that point, Styles tried to appear magnanimous in taking a match just two nights after retaining his title. The moment Ambrose came out it was clear that he wasnt the opponent Styles had in mind, but his appearance provided just enough misdirection to add to the moment that was about to unfold.Cue James Ellsworths music, or the lack thereof -- he of the early, memorable showdown against Braun Strowman, and the temporary tag-team partner for Styles almost a month back before The Miz so rudely interrupted. As Ellsworth sheepishly made his way to the ring, Ambrose showed that his sometimes corny, sometimes laser-sharp wit was on point with a few one-liners that foreshadowed how much hed add to the proceedings.As Styles so graciously put his arm around Ellsworth and went on about how SmackDown Live is the land of opportunity, Daniel Bryan made his lone entrance into the arena for the night and announced that Ambrose would be the guest referee -- but rather than retrieve a referees shirt, he simply took it directly off the official already in the ring and sent him off on his way.Ambrose was in his glory as the special guest referee, running with the opportunity. He put on the referees shirt and started tucking it into his jeans, in which hed somehow managed to wedge about a dozen different items that a confused Styles held for him before coming to his senses and dumped on the outside of the ring.He did everything he could to stretch his influence as referee to the limit, doing a full pat down of Styles to see if he had any foreign objects on him that took an uncomfortable amount of time. Once the in-ring action finally started, Ambrose continued to abuse his privileges. As Styles locked in the calf crusher, Ambrose turned his back and answered a phone call as Ellsworth tapped out, he tripped a running Styles and even held back his arm enforcing a rarely observed law, stopping Styles from using a closed fist only for Ellsworth to do the same thing moments later. There were autographs signed in the crowd, popcorn was eaten and beverages were consumed, all to avoid counting pinfalls and giving Styles the cheap victory he so craved.A scary moment came toward the tail end of the match, as Ellsworth was nearly seriously injured as he took a Styles Clash. The unnatural positioning in the move, which requires the wrestler taking the move to lean their head back rather than the instinctual decision to tuck their head, had previously caused serious neck injuries for guys like Yoshi Tatsu and Roderick Strong outside of the WWE, but Styles thankfully realized what was happening and landed so as not to leave Ellsworth the same fate.Ambrose completely refused to finish the count at this point and hit Styles with a Dirty Deeds, taking some time before draping Ellsworth on top of a prone Styles for a close two-count. It seemed like a temporary embarrassment for the champion, who would certainly find a way to squeeze out a victory as he tends to do -- only Ambrose did it again to cement the unlikeliest of victories for Ellsworth over the WWE world champion.SmackDown Live is clicking along on all cylinders to such an extent that the show was able to pay off a seemingly low-stakes story with a long-term payoff. Ellsworth was destroyed by Strowman, made a surprise appearance on SmackDown and, months later, not only got a shot at the world champion, but got a pinfall victory over him in the middle of the ring. It helps advance the heat and hatred between Ambrose and Styles, though its unclear if and how John Cena will play a part.For now, we have the perfect start to a long pay-per-view layoff for the SmackDown roster. With six weeks of shows to fill before Survivor Series, SmackDown took an unlikely protagonist and thrust him into the spotlight while still advancing the primary story they wanted to tell. Next week will further pay off this story as Bryan, who admitted, I am a huge James Ellsworth fan on Talking Smack, has lined up a championship match for the 14-year independent veteran.For Ellsworth, an independent wrestling promoter in Maryland whose previous high-water mark in terms of notoriety was his appearance in mid-to-upper-tier independent company CZW, its the opportunity of a lifetime. For fans, its another chance to watch something fresh and entertaining on Tuesdays.With rumors of his demise greatly exaggerated, Doph Ziggler opened SmackDown as a conquering champion, thanking fans for their support and admitting hed even doubted himself at times on his way to victory at No Mercy. He wasnt given long to gloat about his Intercontinental title win, though.The Miz and Maryse walked out dressed in all black, another fitting touch to a story that continues to surprise in its versatility and creativity. The pair stood silently and bowed their heads in silence -- mourning the death of the Intercontinental championship.I was the one who brought the prestige back to that title, said Miz who, for the last 188 days at least, was right. If you think this is the end of this story, you are delusional. This is just Act Two -- tthis is the part of the movie where the hero is in peril and has to overcome unbeatable odds.dddddddddddd I am that hero. Its the Empire Strikes Back.All great stories have the same ending -- the hero gets the gold and the girl.Like most great evil geniuses, The Miz doesnt view himself as the villain in his story -- hes the protagonist and the conquering hero. Miz showed just how on point his timing is when, after Ziggler showed a video clip of the end of their No Mercy match where Miz appeared to cry, he allowed the moment to breathe as the crowd chanted you were crying.Hed had enough and called out the Spirit Squad, who have made the unlikeliest of returns to regular action in the past few weeks, playing a big part in this rivalry. As action seemingly went to commercial break, we got another in a growing line of SmackDown Live innovations -- action during the commercial break.Perhaps inspired by soccer-style advertisements designed to allow action to continue, a small window in the corner of the screen showed the broadcast as if it was continuing (without commentary) as the normal commercial window played alongside it. At several other points in the broadcast this innovation was brought back to give the full experience of the match that fans at home otherwise wouldnt have seen.It could have simply been an experiment, or it could be a new approach, but unlike the many ways the second screen experience the WWE tried to use a few years ago failed, this idea keeps fans from fast forwarding while giving them something of value -- and keeps eyes on advertisers, to boot.There was just enough offense from the Spirit Squad to make them believable, but Ziggler eventually Killed Kenny with a superkick, as Mauro Ranallo so eloquently described it. Miz wasted little time sliding into the ring to beat down Ziggler and hit a Skull-crushing Finale. Just as it seemed like the three-on-one beatdown was getting legs, Heath Slater and Rhyno got a massive reaction for running out to save Ziggler (and somewhere Teddy Long cried out straight up tag team match), seemingly setting up a six-man match for next week.Everythings going to get worse until I get it back, Miz shouted ominously as he exited with his posse. While everything was going great in the previous month by giving each story the time to breathe within its own enclosed environment, the WWE picked a great time to start intertwining its stories and breathed new life into certain elements.Its hard to overstate the value that Luke Harper has, both in his own right and when it comes to Bray Wyatt. Frankly, he talks better and works better than Rowan. Involving Kane again and putting the tag team match between the Wyatts and Kane and Randy Orton in the main event slot seemed to be negatives at the outset, but those decisions paid off as the rebuilding and rehabilitation of the supernatural mythos of Wyatt continues, step by step.By having him make Kane disappear, memories of the aborted storyline involving the Undertaker and The Wyatts quickly come to mind -- reinforcing that Wyatt is a true force to be reckoned with, rather than a punching bag who pulls off an occasional magic trick.It was another victory in the ring for Wyatt, and there was another big step on Talking Smack. As Bryan walked off with Ellsworth, the conquering hero, and Young started her signoff, she was quickly interrupted by the Wyatts signature entrance. Young quickly fled after Wyatt and Harper appeared, leaving Wyatt to do what he does best -- spin a tale. Its incredible to see the difference in the punch his words pack when, rather than trying to balance out another tough loss with words, Wyatt can carry on on the strength of a pair of big wins at No Mercy and on SmackDown.My brother is back, and we are whole again, said Wyatt. Weve both come to the realization that SmackDown is for the taking, and I think the people that have seen this this week, they understand that they are not safe... The Wyatts are back, and this is our home now.Hits and missesBryan and Shane McMahon made a brief backstage appearance in which they laid down the gauntlet -- they want three traditional Survivor Series matches between Raw and SmackDown on the upcoming co-branded pay-per-view. Thats a five-on-five mens match, a five-on-five womens match and a five tag-team-on-five-tag-team match.I love going back to tradition, but there are some obvious questions that have to be answered before I feel completely comfortable with it. Whats the format for the tag team survivor match? How strong are the competitors in each match going to be? Are there going to be long-term consequences from the results? Regardless, its good to see they wont be just throwing a token match on there to carry the traditional show on in name only.Carmella blindsided Nikki Bella yet again. Youd think shed take a hint one of these days and watch her back. Nikki Bella provided the distraction and Carmella got rolled up. As seen on Talking Smack, this pair is head for a No DQ match somewhere in the near-future. Meanwhile, Naomi got her second big win in three nights, and set herself up for another match with Alexa Bliss, the No. 1 contender, next week.Jimmy Uso and Chad Gable showed the other half of the singles matchup between Jey Uso and Jason Jordan that happened just before No Mercy. It looks like, for the time being, this feud is going to go on separately from the SmackDown tag-team championships, and that might end up being a pretty good path to follow. Jey helping his brother to cheat and pick up the victory was a nice balance in the early stages of this rivalry.Where was Curt Hawkins for his promised debut match? He was thinking up more ways to rip off Chuck Norris, apparently. cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
