Some things to watch in the Big Ten on Saturday:GAME OF THE WEEKNo. 7 Nebraska at No. 11 Wisconsin. The Cornhuskers have won 10 of their last 11 and are 7-0 for the first time since 2001. With a win, theyll remain in control of the Big Ten West and change the opinion of those whove been unimpressed with their body of work against a light schedule. Nebraska has lost four of the last five meetings with the Badgers, and Camp Randall Stadium has been the Huskers house of horrors. Theyve been outscored 107-41 in their last two visits. Mike Riley lost 35-0 in Madison in his last trip there, with Oregon State in 2011, and now he returns for the biggest game since he took over the Huskers last year. With two Big Ten losses, the Badgers are in desperation mode. Even though their defense has been hampered by injuries , coordinator Justin Wilcoxs unit is one of the best in the country.BEST MATCHUPNo. 2 Michigan at Michigan State. Never mind that Michigan State has lost five straight for the first time since 1991. Mark Dantonio cant stand living in the Wolverines shadow, so even though the Spartans arent playing for much this season and are 23 +-point underdogs, dont be surprised if they push Michigan. No doubt, Jim Harbaugh and his Wolverines have payback on their minds. Theyve dropped three straight to the Spartans and last year they lost 27-23 at the Big House on the last play when Jalen Watts-Jackson ran back Michigans botched punt attempt for a touchdown.INSIDE THE NUMBERSWisconsins Corey Clement, with 164 yards against Ohio State and 134 against Iowa last week, is coming off his first back-to-back 100-yard games since 2013. ... Minnesota has allowed only one touchdown (to Rutgers) in the first half of its four conference games. ... Illinois Hardy Nickerson leads the Big Ten with 10.3 tackles a game. ... Michigan has lost four straight in the series with Michigan State on only four occasions since the teams began playing in 1898. ... Penn State heads to Purdue on a seven-game losing skid in true road games. ... Indiana is averaging 290 yards passing to rank second in the Big Ten. Its opponent, Maryland, has allowed just one team to pass for more than 200.LONG SHOTNorthwestern is a 26 +-point underdog at No. 6 Ohio State. During the Wildcats three-game win streak, Clayton Thorson has thrown for nine touchdowns against one interception and Austin Carr has been the Big Tens hottest receiver. But theyve lost 29 of their last 30 against Ohio State, and the Buckeyes are in a foul mood after losing at Penn State. Urban Meyer has lost back-to-back games only four times in his 15 seasons as a head coach. Each of his three national championship teams (2006, 2008 Florida and 2014 Ohio State) has overcome a regular-season loss to win out.PLAYERS TO WATCHWisconsin QBs Alex Hornibrook and Bart Houston both are in coach Paul Chrysts plans against Nebraska. Hornibrook is the better passer, particularly on deep balls, and will remain the starter. Houston was the starter in the three nonconference games but didnt play in the Badgers first four conference games. He got in for two series last week against Iowa, went 4 for 6 for 59 yards and a touchdown, and gave the Badgers a running threat.---Online:AP college football website: http://collegefootball.ap.org Adidas NMD R2 Cheap .

The Pirates entered Sundays game with a 9-47 record at Miller Park since 2007. A 5-4 victory gave Pittsburgh its first series win against the Brewers in Milwaukee since June of last year. The Pirates took two of three in the weekend set. "We are getting a little bit better," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. "We did some good things today, and we probably complicated the game for ourselves a couple different times as well. But we were able to play through it. We got on top and we stayed on top. It was a good way to finish the series and to win the series." Wandy Rodriguez won his fourth consecutive start, Pedro Alvarez had a two-run double and the Pirates built an early four-run lead before holding off the Brewers. The Pirates have won 13 of 15 and are a season high 12 games over .500. Rodriguez (6-2) gave up three earned runs on seven hits in five innings to earn the victory. He struck out four and didnt walk a batter. Jason Grilli pitched a scoreless ninth for his major league-leading 20th save. Hurdle said Rodriguez struggled with his command throughout most of the game but managed to preserve a lead. "It wasnt his best stuff," Hurdle said. "The only easy inning he had was the first. We had a chance to get out of the fifth inning with him not giving up any runs, but that didnt happen. It was a battle out there today for us. (Rodriguez) wasnt sharp but he got the job done. We will take that and move on." Strong pitching and timely hitting have fueled the Pirates recent run of success. "Weve been doing a really good job together as a team," Rodriguez said through a translator. Pittsburgh got to Milwaukee starter Yovani Gallardo for a run in the second on Jordy Mercers two-out triple, which scored Michael McKenry, who walked. Pittsburgh extended the lead in the third. Starling Marte led off with a double and later scored on a sacrifice fly by Garrrett Jones.dddddddddddd A two-out double by Alvarez plated two more runs, giving Pittsburgh a 4-0 lead. Gallardo (3-5) laboured through just four innings. He gave up four earned runs and five hits while striking out seven and walking two. "Its definitely frustrating. I dont know how to explain it, really," Gallardo said. "Its just one of those weird days. You go out there and have pretty good command of all of your pitches but obviously the results arent there." Gallardo threw 94 pitches over four innings. "There were a lot of pitches," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said. "But I thought his stuff was good. Good live fastball. I thought he was down in the zone with it, but he threw a lot of pitches. They fouled a lot of balls off. Its just surprising when I think he has good stuff and he struggles to get through four innings." The Brewers rallied in the fifth. Rickie Weeks had a lead-off single. After Rodriguez retired the next two batters, Norichika Aoki singled up the middle and Jean Segura reached on an infield hit, loading the bases. Ryan Braun followed with a three-run double, cutting the Pirates lead to 4-3. The Pirates added a run in the sixth on Martes sacrifice fly. Milwaukee again cut the lead to a single run in the eighth when Jeff Bianchi belted a one-out triple and scored on a Carlos Gomezs sacrifice fly. Mercer had three hits and a stolen base for the Pirates. Notes: The Brewers on Sunday selected the contract of right-handed pitcher Donovan Hand from Triple-A Nashville. Hand pitched two innings in his major league debut. Hand filled the roster spot of closer Jim Henderson, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list Saturday with a right hamstring strain. Hands parents and brother drove from Alabama to attend the game. "My dad has dreamed of this for all his life. He wouldnt miss it for the world." . Pittsburghs Andrew McCutchen, who had two hits Sunday, has hit safely in 13 of his last 14 games at Miller Park. ' ' '
