CAVALIERS DON'T GET ENOUGH RESPECT ... NOT SO CACH ELLIOTT

You might have noticed Virginia worked its way into the  Associated Press Top 25 – barely – this week … thanks to some  curious goings on in Ann Arbor Mich., where the home team  edged heavy dog Western Michigan 13-12 on a last-play Hail  Mary … even though the clock clearly ran out on the previous  snap. And, while the NCAA refused to overturn the result, the  Wolverines were made to pay, nevertheless, by the wire-service  voters who dropped them from No.16 to nowhere to be found. Don’t be surprised if UVA, 2-0 after Friday night’s 59-3 home  rout of second-tier Norfolk State, finishes among the top 10.  For the second straight season, coach  TONY ELLIOTT’S   Cavaliers have used the transfer portal well … most notably at  quarterback where  BEAU PRIBULA  came from Missouri to  replace last year’s one-and-done  CHANDLER MORRIS  who  led them to a school-record 11 wins (3 losses) and runner-up for...

IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A LOSS FOR MICHIGAN

  OF ALL COLLEGE THINGS:   ---- THE LAUGHTER you hear comes from SEC Haters of the  World now that new LSU football coach  LANE KIFFIN  has  brought such chaos that the league has scheduled a meeting  Thursday with the possible outcome removal of the school from  the conference … unlikely though it may seem.

Kiffin, meanwhile, decided he knew better and said he would  use a couple of former team members … who were placed on  the roster but did not appear in the season-opening 51-10 rout  of Clemson. Now, despite the presidential ruling, Kiffin  contin...

IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED ,,,, ARSENAL TRIED AGAIN ,,, TO PERECTION

  NOTHING BUT SOCCER … (world class variety) ... … . At first, he appeared stunned, head in hands ... after a player who  was on the bench, with little chance of getting on the field, only  minutes earlier had replaced a questionably-injured teammate and  scored (for the first time in nine years) the game-tying goal on virtually  the last play to give the home team at least a sense of success …  which, until the final minutes, seemed outrageous, at best. Then, as he  walked off the pitch, Manchester United coach  MICHAEL  CARRICK’s expression changed to one of dark, if not desperate,  determination. And ManU fans could only hope [cliché alert]  heads  will roll  as a result. Once again his defense let him down. Both Everton goals were set up  directly by weak, errant attempts to clear … the second (by veteran   NOUSSAIR MAHARRAMI   going directly to recent addition   AINSLEY MAITLAND-NILES   ,29, w...
