The Iona Gaels face a daunting task, as they hit the road to challenge the second-ranked Kansas Jayhawks tonight. Watch all the action unfold live on TSN2 at 8pm et/5pm pt. Iona is 1-1 on the young season, the team opening with a 73-69 loss at Cleveland State on Nov. 9, but bouncing back with a 76-55 home victory over Wofford a week later. The Gaels are preparing for the rigors of Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference play, which for them begins at home against Marist on Dec. 4. Kansas is undefeated after two games, with its initial win coming at home over ULM, 80-63, and its second in a marquee matchup in Chicago against Duke last Tuesday, 94-83. The Jayhawks, who moved into the second spot in this weeks AP poll, have won 64 consecutive home games against non-conference foes, and the team is gearing up for what should be another highly competitive slate of Big 12 Conference bouts. KU begins league play at Oklahoma on Jan. 8, 2014. This game marks only the fourth all-time meeting between Iona and Kansas, with the Jayhawks winning two of the first three, the most recent of which took place in Kansas City back in 1988. Its only been two games, one of which resulted in a loss, but Iona is already establishing itself as a team that can boast some pretty potent scorers. Sean Armand is averaging 18.5 ppg, David Laury 17.0 ppg and Isaiah Williams 13.5 ppg, helping the squad put up 72.5 ppg despite shooting just 41.3 percent from the field. The Gaels defensive effort has been decent, with foes generating just 64 ppg in hitting their shots a mere 38.9 percent of the time. Laury led the team in the first game with 19 points, while Armand was high man in the win over Wofford with 20. In that latter contest, Williams added 19 points, and Laury finished with 15 for a club that struggled in the first half (.290 FG percentage), but turned it on after intermission (.680). Williams and Armand combined for eight 3-pointers. The Gaels easily won the rebounding battle (37-24), and used a 15-7 edge in points from the foul line to put the game away. Kansas has no shortage of talented players who can all but take over a game at the drop of the hat. Most of the spotlight has been turned on freshman sensation Andrew Wiggins, and he hasnt disappointed as he currently leads the team in scoring at 19.0 ppg. Wiggins is coming off a 22-point effort in the win over Duke, and he was also one of the top rebounders as well with eight caroms. Perry Ellis (18.0 ppg) actually paced the Jayhawks in the statement victory, scoring 24 points while also grabbing nine boards, and both Wayne Selden, Jr. (11.5 ppg) and Frank Mason made significant contributions as well, netting 15 points apiece. Kansas made good on 56.1 percent of its field goal attempts, but allowed the Blue Devils to connect on 51.7 percent of their total shots. A 39-24 edge in rebounding, along with a 27-16 advantage in points from the foul line played an integral role in the outcome for coach Bill Selfs club. Stitched Cincinnati Bengals Jerseys .

On a night they paid tribute to an alumnus killed while saving several lives during the September 11 attacks in New York in 2001, the Eagles churned out 452 rushing yards and scored 24 straight points at one stretch to record their first win over a top-25 foe since besting Florida State in 2009. Murphy, who managed just 54 passing yards on a 5-of-13 completion rate and was intercepted once, put the finishing touches on the upset by tearing off a 66- yard touchdown run that gave Boston College (2-1) a 37-24 lead with 3:30 remaining. Jon Hilliman had two of the Eagles five rushing touchdowns, while Boston Colleges fired-up defense sacked Cody Kessler five times and held USC to a mere 20 rushing yards. Kessler did throw for four touchdowns and completed 31-of-41 attempts for 317 yards, but was mostly held in check after the Trojans built a 17-6 lead less than a minute into the second quarter. Javorius Allen finished with 118 yards and a touchdown on nine catches for a USC (2-1) squad fresh off last weeks hard-earned win at defending Pac-12 champ Stanford. Nelson Agholor added 64 yards and a touchdown on nine grabs. The heavily favored Trojans appeared on their way to a rather effortless win after Allen took a screen pass 51 yards to the end zone to give his team a 17-6 advantage early in the second quarter. It would be the last big play produced by the USC offense for quite some time, however. The Trojans went three-and-out on their next four drives as Boston College closed out the first half with 14 unanswered points to forge ahead, with Hilliman starting the comeback with a 3-yard run that capped an 8-play, 75- yard march. The teams then traded punts until BCs Sherman Alston took a pitch on an end around and followed some strong downfield blocking en route to a momentum- shifting 54-yard touchdown that sent the Eagles ahead by a 20-17 count 1:27 prior to the intermission. Boston Colleges defense came up with another quick stop on USCs initial possession of the second half, inducing a punt that Alston took 22 yards into Trojans territory. The Eagles needed just five plays -- all runs -- to reach the end zone again, with Hilliman plowing in from a yard out for a 27-17 lead midway through the third quarter. USCs offense continued to spuutter, punting the ball away on its next three trips.dddddddddddd Murphy brooke loose for runs of 25 and 27 yards following the last of those punts, putting Joey Launceford in range for a 25-yard field goal that made it a 13-point game with 7:42 left. With the Trojans now nearing desperation mode, Kessler stepped up. The junior triggerman made good on 8-of-9 throws in engineering a 10-play, 75-yard jaunt that culminated in Agholors 10-yard touchdown reception that pulled USC within 30-24 with 4:32 to go. The Eagles, who donned their helmets, shoes and gloves with a red bandanna pattern in honor of Welles Crowther, a former BC lacrosse player and equities trader responsible for ushering several World Trade Center workers to safety before the South Tower collapsed, werent done fighting, however. Two plays after Agholors score, Murphy broke containment on a read option play and outraced the USC defense for a back-breaking 66-yard touchdown. Kesslers fourth TD strike of the day, a 14-yarder to Darreus Rogers, cut the lead to 37-31 with 1:18 left, but the Eagles recovered the ensuing onside kick attempt before running out the clock. Both defenses were strong early on, as the game began with a series of punts that resulted in the Trojans starting their third drive of the night at the BC 38. Kessler went 4-for-4 on a 6-play trek he ended with an 8-yard delivery to George Farmer that put USC up 7-0 just under nine minutes in. The Trojan defense then forced a third straight three-and-out, with J.R. Tavais sack of Murphy and Agholors 11-yard punt return setting up Andre Heidaris 52-yard field goal with 3:16 left in the opening quarter. Boston Colleges offense finally got untracked on its next possession, which Myles Willis began by ripping off a 52-yard run off left tackle to ignite a 7- play sequence that ended with Tyler Rouse scoring on an option pitch from Murphy on the first play of the second quarter. Launceford missed the extra point try. The 10-6 score lasted just 48 seconds, though, as Allen weaved his way down the right sideline while hauling in a short pass from Kessler on 3rd-and-12 to put USC back up by double digits.
