to focus on football after offensive lineman Zac Antworten

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Kalani Sitake faced a difficult decision in his debut as BYUs coach. He could send out Rhett Almond to attempt a game-winning kick despite the sophomore missing a field and an extra point earlier in the game or turn to freshman Jake Oldroyd.Sitake went with the freshman, with an assist to special teams coach Ed Lamb, and it worked out perfectly for the Cougars.Oldroyd kicked a 33-yard field goal with 4 seconds left and Jamaal Williams ran for 162 yards, helping BYU rally to beat Arizona 18-16 on Saturday night.After the field goal and PAT we had earlier; I wouldnt say it was a good time to do it, but I felt comfortable with Jake being in that position, Sitake said.BYU sputtered at times, but pulled out a victory to start a brutal opening stretch of the season.Williams looked like he never left after sitting out last season due to personal reasons, carrying 29 times to spark BYUs offense.Taysom Hill was sharp after missing most of last season with a foot injury, hitting 21 of 29 passes for 202 yards and a touchdown.It still was tight.Arizonas Nick Wilson scored on a 49-yard run with 1:26 left and the Wildcats failed on the 2-point conversion, giving the Cougars a final chance at University of Phoenix Stadium.BYU started its final drive on its own 31 and quickly moved down the field to set up Oldroyds kick. The freshman split the uprights, raised his arms and ran toward BYUs sideline after hitting a winning kick in his first career game .We were calm the whole time, Hill said of the final drive. We knew we had a great opportunity.Arizona went through a difficult fall camp, trying to focus on football after offensive lineman Zach Hemmila was found dead in his apartment on Aug. 8. Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez joined Hemmilas family with athletic director Greg Byrne and offensive line coach Jim Michalczik for a pre-game ceremony that include a highlight video.The Wildcats had plenty of questions heading into the season, the big one being who will start at quarterback.Anu Solomon got the start after a tight battle with sophomore Brandon Dawkins that started in spring, but struggled against BYUs defensive pressure up front for most of the game.This one is on me, said Solomon, who threw for 213 yards on 20-of-30 passing. I have to play better.He wasnt alone.Wilson also scored on a 15-yard run in the fourth quarter and finished with 138 yards rushing, one of the few bright spots on Arizonas offense. The Wildcats finished with 328 total yards, 190 of that coming in the fourth quarter.You ask the same question four or five times, it eventually becomes like a lawyer, Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez said. Ask the same question four times, youre going to get the same I answer, I think. Maybe not.THE TAKEAWAYBYU: Williams was explosive at times and Hill was efficient in his return, coming through when the Cougars needed him to. Despite some breakdowns in the fourth quarter, BYUs defense was solid, holding Arizonas quick-hitting offense in check most of the night.Arizona: The offensive line, one of the teams most experienced groups, could not solve BYUs pressure until late. The defense, solid for most of the night, allowed the Cougars to quick-hit their way down the field to set up the winning kick. Arizona entered the season with plenty of questions and didnt get many answers.JONES INJUREDArizona suffered a big blow in the second quarter when spur linebacker Tellas Jones went down with an injury and did not return.The sophomore was one of the few known entities on Arizonas defense and was arguably its best player in the first half, ranging all over the field.We still had 11 guys out there, Rodriguez said. Tellas is a good player, but we still had 11 guys out there.QUOTABLEI was joking around afterward (Oldroyds kick) that there was so much conversation about my age and Im 26, I told the team Im too old for this, Im stressed, said Hill, who was granted a fifth year of eligibility after his injury last season.UP NEXTBYU: The Cougars continue a brutal start to the season at Utah next Saturday, followed by games against UCLA and West Virginia.Arizona: The Wildcats play their home opener against Grambling State next Saturday. Julio Teheran Jersey . The Clippers were angry about blowing a big lead; the Kings didnt like being in that kind of hole and nearly digging themselves out only to lose. Kurt Suzuki Jersey .S. Open champion Justin Rose birdied the first hole with a blind shot he hit to a foot of the pin, and he stayed in front Tuesday until he completed a 4-under 67 for a two-shot lead over Jason Dufner in PGA Grand Slam of Golf. http://www.thebravesteamshop.com/Braves-Ozzie-Albies-Kids-Jersey/ . Now tied for second in the league in shootout goals, the 24-year-old likes to see what the opposing goaltender has in store before he ultimately lands on a move. Babe Ruth Jersey .C. -- Kemba Walker and the Charlotte Bobcats got off to a fast start, and the Sacramento Kings were never quite able to catch up. Preston Tucker Jersey .J. -- Josh Cribbs was in the Pro Bowl in February and out of a job six months later. ZAGREB, Croatia -- Croatia needs one more point to win its second Davis Cup title after winning the doubles against Argentina in straight sets on Saturday.Marin Cilic and Ivan Dodig defeated Juan Martin del Potro and Leonardo Mayer 7-6 (2), 7-6 (4), 6-3 for a 2-1 lead over Argentina in the final.Cilic can secure the decisive point for Croatia against del Potro in the first reverse singles on Sunday. If del Potro wins, Croatias Ivo Karlovic and Argentinas Federico Delbonis will decide the final.We will push to the end, Dodig, the hero of the doubles victory, said. Nothing will stop us now.Cilic said he expects a victory against del Potro in a matchup of former U.S. Open champions, although it wont be easy.Mentally, its easier for me because we have won today, Cilic said. Our matches were always tight and some small details could decide.Del Potro said he and Cilic are good friends on the tour, but tomorrow will be a different situation.He is playing really good this year. He will be playing at home and it will be difficult, del Potro said.Croatias only previous Davis Cup title was in 2005.Argentina is the only team in the Davis Cups 116-year historyy to have reached four previous finals and not won.ddddddddddddOn Saturday, the Croats dominated tiebreakers in the first two sets with Dodig making some spectacular shots and Cilic holding his serve at key points.The crucial break came in the sixth game of the third set on Mayers serve when the Argentine netted a seemingly routine forehand after making a string of mistakes in previous exchanges. The Croatian duo converted the second of three opportunities.The second set tiebreak was crucial, Cilic said.Cilic closed out the match with a big first serve that Mayer could only send long. The Croats threw their arms in the air and got big hugs from the bench.In the opening singles on Friday, Cilic defeated Delbonis, and del Potro beat Karlovic.Diego Maradona led thousands of visiting fans with chants and frantically waved a scarf with the Argentine flag from his executive booth at Arena Zagreb. He was wearing a black band on his arm to mourn the death of Cuban leader Fidel Castro.He was like my second father, Maradona said. ' ' '
