NORMAN, Okla. -- A year ago, Texas coach Charlie Strong strengthened his shaky job status with an upset win over Oklahoma.He could use another one in this years edition of the Red River Rivalry against the 20th-ranked Sooners Saturday in Dallas.Strongs Longhorns (2-2, 0-1 Big 12) opened this season with a win over Notre Dame that energized their demanding fans. But allowing 50 and 49 points in losses to California and Oklahoma State prompted a comment from athletic director Mike Perrin, and changes followed. Strong, a former defensive coordinator, took the defensive controls from Vance Bedford this week in hopes that a personal touch can sway the teams fortunes.I dont think its desperate measures, Strong said. Talking to defensive staff, they understand what we need to get done. Ive done it before. I see where I can help. Sometimes you need new energy and eyes.Oklahomas season hasnt been a picnic either. The Sooners (2-2, 1-0) entered the season ranked No. 3 and with hopes of competing for a national title after reaching the College Football Playoff last season, but that goal faded after losses to Houston and Ohio State.All is not lost. The Sooners won their conference opener at No. 21 TCU last Saturday , and a victory over the Longhorns would give the Sooners wins over two of the Big 12s most talented teams in their bid for another league title.With all the disappointment each team already has encountered, and the heat rising for Strong and Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops, neither can afford to lose to their top rival.From an emotional standpoint, this is a street fight, Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield said. Thats absolutely what this is. Theres no hiding that. This is the biggest rivalry in college football. You get in that tunnel and theres nothing nice to be said. They dont like us and we dont like them.Here are some things to watch heading into this years matchup.TEXAS NO STEPTexas running back Chris Warren III is out indefinitely after injuring his right knee Saturday against Oklahoma State. Warren missed the second half against Oklahoma State after rushing for 106 yards on 10 carries in the first half. Leading rusher DOnta Foreman left the Oklahoma State game in the third quarter with an abdominal injury after churning out 148 yards rushing and two touchdowns. Strong said he expects Foreman to play Saturday.MIXON IT UPOklahomas Joe Mixon can be found all over the field. The sophomore running back ranks fourth nationally in all-purpose yards with 191.5 per game. He has 340 yards rushing, 242 on kickoff returns, 162 receiving and 22 on punt returns. He returned a kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown against Ohio State.EVANS RETIRESOklahoma linebacker Tay Evans has retired from football after dealing with concussions. It was difficult news for his teammates to hear.The guy had been starting, and really had an incredible future, but we want the best for him moving forward in his life first and foremost, Stoops said.It will worth watching to see how Oklahomas already struggling defense handles losing a significant player. Emmanuel Beal, who had eight tackles against TCU last Saturday, is expected to fill the slot.SWOOPING INReserve quarterback Tyrone Swoopes is handling business for Texas in short yardage and red zone situations. He has five multi-touchdown rushing games in his past 13 outings, and had two scores last Saturday against Oklahoma State.FAVORITE TARGET?Mayfield has been searching for someone to replace Sterling Shepards production from last season for the Sooners. Dede Westbrook showed he might be the guy with seven catches for 158 yards and two touchdowns last week against TCU. He had touchdowns receptions of 67 and 40 yards against the Horned Frogs. He has recovered from an unspecified injury that cost him some of his speed earlier in the season.You talk about the explosive part of his game, which is what makes him so special, Mayfield said. I mean, hes got such unique speed and top level speed. When hes able to use it, he benefits from it.---Follow Cliff Brunt on Twitter (at)CliffBruntAP Wholesale Jerseys Sale . Radwanska, making her debut in the Seoul tournament, hit eight aces in a match that lasted 1 hour, 4 minutes at Olympic Park tennis stadium.

Discount NFL Jerseys .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable. http://www.nfljerseyschinacheap.com/ . The Vancouver coach and an announced sellout crowd of 18,910 watched in dismay as the Canucks lost 7-4 to the New York Islanders on Monday night by squandering a 3-0 lead in the third period. Cheap Jerseys China .C. -- Kemba Walker and the Charlotte Bobcats got off to a fast start, and the Sacramento Kings were never quite able to catch up. Football Jerseys From China . 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. And, just like that, there are only four races remaining in the Sprint Cup Series season. Lets cherish our time together.Previewing Talladega, I talked often about setting your daily fantasy lineup just based on drivers starting further back in the field. With wrecks making finishing position more volatile than ever, the relatively meaninglessness of practice/qualifying speeds and how evenly spread fastest laps are through the field, its worth playing for start/finish differential points, and take the possibility of negative points out of the picture.Was it the smart play? The top three starters in Sundays race, Martin Truex Jr., Brad Keselowski and Matt Kenseth, all put up negative points.Meanwhile, the top six points earners all started 16th or worse, with five of those starting outside the top 20. They included Brian Scott, who cost just $5,100 on DraftKings.But now were done with restrictor-plate racing for the season. Lets shelve that line of thinking until next Februarys Daytona 500.This week, were racing at Martinsville, the polar opposite of Talladega. While Dega is the longest track and one of the highest-bank with a relatively low number laps run (188), Martinsville is the shortest and flattest, and will run 500 laps.And youre going to see some crazy fastest laps and laps led numbers here. Passing is tough, and because of the close quarters, starting position comes into play, since the drivers starting at the back will be nearly a lap down when the race starts.So this all starts with the polesitter. Going back to 2005, the driver starting first has led 110 laps per race. Thats 55 points there right off the start.But those are just averages. Its your best bet, but consider this: Over the last three seasons, theres been six instances of a driver putting up at least 100 fantasy points in a Martinsville race. The best start among those drivers was fourth, by Jimmie Johnson in 2014.The other five started seventh, 13th, 15th, 17th and 23rd. So there is mid-pack value to be had here. But you want to chase those laps led because there is usually a huge points day to be had here for a driver. In the spring Martinsville race, Kyle Busch won while leading 352 laps and running 81 fastest laps. Thats 180.5 points.Here are my picks to get you started this week. But check back again after qualifying for my final picks and fades.Im starting mmy team with:Kevin Harvick hasnt won at Martinsville since the 2011 spring race.dddddddddddd Later that year was also his last top-five finish at the track. So why do I like a driver who hasnt had a top-five finish at Martinsville in the last nine races? Consistency.Over the last three Martinsville race, Harvick has led at least 38 laps in all three, with more than 50 fastest laps in each. He leads all drivers with 63.7 fastest laps per race over the last two seasons at Martinsville.Keep an eye on these four:Kyle Busch: Busch was dominant here in the spring race, leading 352 laps as referenced above. But he falls out of my top spot because he hasnt consistently been collecting bonus points for fastest laps and laps led, despite a string of top-15 finishes. In his previous six Martinsville races, Busch failed to lead three times and never reached 30 fastest laps.Jeff Gordon: Gordon hasnt been overly impressive since returning part-time to fill in for Dale Earnhardt Jr., but he is coming off 10th-place finish in his last start. Gordon has always been great at Martinsville, putting up more than 20 fastest laps in 18 of his last 19 Martinsville starts with an average finish of fifth in that span.Kasey Kahne: Im looking for Kahne to continue his recent resurgence, especially given his strength on shorter, flatter tracks this season (Martinsville, New Hampshire, Richmond and Phoenix). In three of the last four races on such tracks, Kahne has finished with more than 40 DraftKings points and ranked among the top eight drivers. He was ninth and 11th in the two Martinsville races last year before finishing 22nd earlier this season.AJ Allmendinger: The Dinger is a road course ace, but the tight turns and hard braking needed at Martinsville syncs up well with those skills. Allmendinger finished runner-up at Martinsville earlier this season, his fourth finish of 11th or better in the last five Martinsville races. Hes also hit double digits in fastest laps in four of the last five Martinsville races, which isnt bad considering his price tag.Thats all I have for you this week. If you cant get yourself a Martinsville hot dog, prepare your own favorite hot dog. But please dont put ketchup on it. Our friendship depends on it.
