(STATS) -- The top candidates for national offensive and defensive player of the year headline the 2016 STATS FCS All-America Team, announced Tuesday.Quarterbacks Jeremiah Briscoe of Sam Houston State and Gage Gubrud of Eastern Washington and Eagles wide receiver Cooper Kupp, who have been invited to the announcement of the STATS FCS Walter Payton Award, along with Missouri State linebacker Dylan Cole and defensive ends P.J. Hall of Sam Houston State and Karter Schult of Northern Iowa, the three at the announcement of the STATS FCS Buck Buchanan Award, are part of the All-America team that features 100 players from 60 schools across all 13 FCS conferences.CAA Football has the most All-Americans with 16, one more than the Missouri Valley Football Conference, which had the most first-team selections with seven, and the Southern (12) and the Big Sky (11) conferences also reached double figures. Charleston Southern, James Madison and North Dakota State had the high among schools with four selections each.The first-team quarterback honors between Briscoe and Gubrud will be determined by the Payton Award voting, whose top three will be revealed January 6 at the STATS FCS Awards Banquet in Frisco, Texas.Briscoe, a redshirt junior, set the FCS single-season record with 57 touchdown passes and threw for 4,602 yards for Sam Houston, which was the only unbeaten FCS team in the regular season. Gubrud, a redshirt sophomore, set the FCS record with 5,160 passing yards and threw 48 touchdowns. He led the nation with 5,766 total yards, just 33 shy of Steve McNairs FCS record at Alcorn State in 1994.Nobody knows the All-America first team quite like Kupp, who made it for the fourth time. The fifth-year senior caught 117 passes for 1,700 yards and 17 touchdowns, scored two other TDs and threw for two more in another dominant season for Eastern Washington.His biggest attribute is his consistency, and that he continues to find ways to produce when everybodys eyes are on him, Eagles coach Beau Baldwin said.Plus, he has the guts and the toughness not to be worried about any moment -- he just goes out and gets it done.Cole will head to the announcement of the Buck Buchanan Award, also January 6 at the national banquet, with an FCS-high 142 tackles. Schult had 17 sacks -- the Division I high -- and 24 tackles for loss, while Hall had 24 1/2 tackles for loss and 11 sacks.The rest of the first-team offense was running backs Tarik Cohen of North Carolina A&T and Chase Edmonds of Fordham, fullback Joe Protheroe of Cal Poly, wide receiver Karel Hamilton of Samford, tight end Dallas Goedert of South Dakota State, and offensive linemen Julien Davenport of Bucknell, Casey Dunn of Jacksonville State, Zack Johnson of North Dakota State, Mitch Kirsch of James Madison and Brandon Parker of North Carolina A&T.On defense, the other first-team selections were defensive linemen Keionta Davis of Chattanooga and Tanoh Kpassagnon of Villanova, linebackers Folarin Orimolade of Dartmouth, Christian Kuntz of Duquesne and Brett Taylor of Western Illinois, and defensive backs Dee Delaney of The Citadel, Lorenzo Jerome of Saint Francis, Donald Payne of Stetson and Cole Reyes of North Dakota.The first-team special teams selections were kicker David Marvin of Wofford, punter Miles Bergner of South Dakota, long snapper Joshua Appel of Indiana State, kick returner Darius Hammond of Charleston Southern, punt returner Rashad Davis of James Madison and all-purpose selection John Lovett of Princeton.The offensive players of the year in eight conferences and defensive players of the year in 12 conferences made the All-America team.---=2016 STATS FCS ALL-AMERICA TEAM=FIRST TEAMOFFENSE*-To be determined by STATS FCS Walter Payton Award results*QB -- Jeremiah Briscoe, junior, 6-3, 220, Sam Houston State, or Gage Gubrud, sophomore, 6-2, 195, Eastern WashingtonRB -- Tarik Cohen, senior, 5-6, 173, North Carolina A&TRB -- Chase Edmonds, junior, 5-9, 196, FordhamFB -- Joe Protheroe, junior, 6-0, 225, Cal PolyWR -- Karel Hamilton, senior, 6-1, 202, SamfordWR -- Cooper Kupp, senior, 6-2, 215, Eastern WashingtonTE -- Dallas Goedert, junior, 6-5, 250, South Dakota StateOL -- Julien Davenport, senior, 6-7, 315, BucknellOL -- Casey Dunn, senior, 6-3, 290, Jacksonville StateOL -- Zack Johnson, senior, 6-4, 329, North Dakota StateOL -- Mitch Kirsch, senior, 6-6, 290, James MadisonOL -- Brandon Parker, junior, 6-7, 299, North Carolina A&TDEFENSEDL -- Keionta Davis, senior, 6-4, 270, ChattanoogaDL -- P.J.

LOUIS -- Cardinals cleanup hitter Allen Craig says hes recovered from a foot injury and ready to be put on St. CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs have featured one of the best lineups in baseball this season.Lately, however, the Cubs have sputtered at the plate. The team has lost three of its past four games against right-handed starters Zach Davies, Junior Guerra, Miguel Gonzalez and James Shields.Cubs manager Joe Maddon wants to see the slump come to a stop when his players welcome the Chicago White Sox to Wrigley Field on Wednesday night. The Cubs dropped the first two games of the annual crosstown battle Monday and Tuesday on the South Side before the series shifted north.I think theyre taking advantage of our youth, Maddon said of opposing pitchers after Tuesdays 3-0 loss to the White Sox. Primarily, we have to not expand the strike zone. Weve been expanding a little bit against these guys. Weve got to keep them in the zone, and obviously when they make a mistake, its got to be hit hard and kept fair. We have not done that. We fought back a couple games ... but overall, the starting pitching the last four games has forced us out of our game plan.Despite a recent blip, the Cubs (59-40) possess the best record in the National League. A star-studded roster became even deeper this week as the team acquired left-handed closer Aroldis Chapman from the New York Yankees. Chapman joined the Cubs on Tuesday and could make his team debut at Wrigley Field.Meanwhile, the White Sox (50-50) have climbed back to .500 thanks to a four-game winning streak that included three straight walk-off victories against the Detroit Tigers and Cubs. The White Sox won two of three games at Wrigley Field last season and are 27-25 all-time at the Friendly Confines.Cubs right-hander Jason Hammel (9-5, 3.35 ERA) will look to win his third straight outing when he takes the mound against the White Sox. The 6-foot-6, 225-pound hurler is 2-0 with a 2.45 ERA in two starts since the All-Star break. He is 4-1 with a 2.70 ERA in eight starts this season aat Wrigley Field.dddddddddddd.Hammel, 33, has not faced the White Sox as a member of the Cubs. He is 1-2 with a 4.01 ERA in nine games (four starts) against the South Siders, whom he last faced in 2013 with the Baltimore Orioles.Right-hander Anthony Ranaudo (1-0, 17.18 ERA) is set to make his team debut with the White Sox. The 26-year-old opened the season with the Texas Rangers before he was traded to Chicago on May 12 for right-handed pitching prospect Matt Ball. The White Sox recalled him from Triple-A Charlotte on Sunday to fill the roster spot created by Chris Sales five-day suspension for destroying team equipment.Although Ranaudo always has tantalized scouts -- then-Boston Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein selected him in the supplemental first round (39th overall) in 2010 -- he has yet to excel in the majors. Ranaudo is 5-4 with a 6.33 ERA in 13 career games (nine starts). In two relief appearances with Texas earlier this season, he allowed seven runs in 3 2/3 innings. He walked eight and struck out two.At the plate, White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu has started to heat up after a slow start to the season. Abreu has reached base in 43 of his past 46 games. He is hitting .276 with 11 home runs and 56 RBI, but he has gone a career-high 26 consecutive games without going deep.Abreu clubbed 36 home runs in 2014 and 30 home runs last season. This season, he is on pace to hit 17.You can see that there is probably some frustration with the homers and the expectations he puts on himself, White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. Right now, I think hes a lot better off at the plate just mechanically, mentally, all that stuff that goes into it. Hes just a better hitter right now. You go through periods where you dont swing it very well, but right now hes in a pretty good spot.
