BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Starting guard Jacob Bailey understands how big this weekend could be for the Indiana Hoosiers.They havent started 2-1 in Big Ten play since 2007, havent won back-to-back home conference games since 2006 and havent beaten two ranked teams in the same season since 2004.Bailey, an Indianapolis native, wants to help change all that Saturday against No. 10 Nebraska (5-0, 2-0) .Thats obviously in the back of our heads a little bit, but thats not our goal, the fifth-year senior said when asked about pulling a second upset in three weeks. Our goal is to win one game at a time. It just so happens the next game is against Nebraska and its a highly-ranked team.After ending a seven-year bowl drought last season, the Hoosiers (3-2, 1-1) are three wins away from becoming bowl eligible for a second straight season. It would be the first time in a quarter-century Indiana has achieved that feat. After upsetting No. 17 Michigan State in overtime two weeks ago and giving No. 2 Ohio State its first serious challenge before falling 38-17 last weekend in Columbus, the Hoosiers certainly look like they will be in the mix Saturday.I knew that I wanted to be a part of an Indiana program that kind of turned this program around, Bailey said. Were not there yet. We still have a ways to go. But I think definitely, in the last five years, youve seen constant and consistent improvement. Thats really been our mantra since I got here.Theres no doubt the Hoosiers are playing better.In Wilsons first five seasons, the Hoosiers allowed 40 or more points in 28 games including five times last season. This year, under new defensive coordinator Tom Allen, the Hoosiers still havent allowed 40 and despite giving up 290 yards rushing to the Buckeyes, trailed by only one score in the third quarter.The Hoosiers even deferred after winning the coin toss, quite a change for a team that has built its reputation on scoring points and winning shootouts. Thats not necessarily the case anymore.I think thats already being spread around, linebacker Tegray Scales said after his third straight game with 10 or more tackles.But the high-scoring Cornhuskers pose a different kind of challenge for a revamped defense that has primarily used its nickel package as the base defense. Nebraska brings the nations No. 23 rushing offense (234.2 yards).Wilson has seen all this before.He matched wits with Nebraska multiple times in his last previous stop, at Oklahoma, and still believes Nebraska is one of the nations premier programs, and he hopes that a big, boisterous crowd will give the Hoosiers a boost as they try to pull off another signature win.Bailey cant wait.Thats every week playing in the Big Ten East, he said when asked about playing a third consecutive ranked foe. With this team on the rise, playing another team thats probably going to be top 10 in the country, its a great opportunity to see where were at.Note: Wilson continues to say All-American guard Dan Feeney (concussion) is making progress and could return this week. Feeney has already missed three games.---Online:APs college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org Cheap Jordan Retro 12 .com) - The Edmonton Oilers and Vancouver Canucks both take aim at their first wins of the season on Saturday, as the Canucks open their home slate at Rogers Arena.

VIENNA -- Andy Murray closed in on the No. 1 ranking by winning his third straight ATP title at the Erste Bank Open on Sunday.The Scot can overtake Novak Djokovic atop the ATP rankings next week if he wins the Paris Masters and the Serb doesnt reach the final.I get a step closer with every win but its still a long way from here, Murray said. From two to one seems a small jump in a way but its the hardest one to make. To go from 100 to 50 is more spots but is a lot easier.In Sundays final, Murray defeated Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-3, 7-6 (6) for his personal-best seventh title of the season, and 42nd overall. Djokovic has also won seven events this year.I was thinking more about how you are going to win the match rather than what it would mean if you did win it. But obviously its nice to win my seventh tournament, Murray said. A lot of them have come in the last few months. After the Australian Open I struggled a little bit for a couple of months but the last few months have been very good.Murray extended his unbeaten streak to 15 matches after also winning in Beijing and Shanghai.I think I played my best tennis of the tournament today. Thats pleasing, obviously, as you want to improve as an event goes on, he said.The 15th-ranked Tsonga, who was the 2011 champion, appeared in his first final of the season, which has been marred by adductor and left knee injuries.ddddddddddddt was a positive week for me. It was very good to be in the final, Tsonga said. I played good tennis. It was nice to play five matches in a row. It hasnt happened many times these last couple of months.Murray advanced to the final after defending champion David Ferrer pulled out with a left leg injury, while Tsonga saved a match point in his 2 1/2-hour semifinal against Ivo Karlovic on Saturday.Murray, who also won in Vienna on his only previous visit in 2014, dominated Sundays final from the start. He raced into a 3-0 lead by taking 14 of the first 19 points of the match.He avoided break points in his games, and missed a set point on the Frenchmans serve at 5-2 but clinched the opening set the next game with his second ace.Murray conceded just two points on his way to a 2-0 lead in the second set but started to struggle with his first serve as his percentage dropped to 18 halfway through the second set.He hit a forehand long on the only break point for Tsonga to help the Frenchman level at 4-4.Murray missed his first match point in the tiebreaker as he netted a forehand return, but closed out the win on his second chance with an ace.
