STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- Coming off their biggest win under head coach James Franklin with some extra rest, Penn State players have had plenty of time to contemplate their looming game against No. 2 Ohio State.During the open weekend, they watched as Wisconsin nearly toppled the Buckeyes (6-0, 3-0 Big Ten) on Saturday. But the Nittany Lions will need to use their own approach to stop Ohio States fourth-ranked scoring offense backed by the third-ranked scoring defense in the nation.Wisconsin played them extremely well, Franklin said. But they are traditional pro-style, pound-you offense and then their defense is playing so well that it allows them to play that and not have to drop back and throw the ball and do things like that. Obviously thats a different style than were playing right now. So that film for our offense isnt overly valuable.Penn States offense has improved and the running game was explosive with 372 yards against Maryland, but Ohio State has been consistently great nearly all season. With quarterback J.T. Barrett leading the way, the Buckeyes are averaging more than 516 yards of offense, 300 yards on the ground.Its not a favorable matchup for the Nittany Lions who are still unsure if starting linebackers Jason Cabinda and Brandon Bell will play. Theyve missed the last five and four games, respectively, and as of Tuesday had not been cleared to practice. Franklin did say veteran players who require less practice can be cleared later in the week, however.We know they are important to this team, cornerback Grant Haley said. They have a lot of experience that they bring to the table.Getting Bell and Cabinda back would be big boosts. They both helped limit Ohio States offense the last time the teams met at Beaver Stadium. That 31-24 loss in double overtime was the closest Penn States come to beating Ohio State in the 11 years since the Nittany Lions last home win in the series. Penn State is 0-4 since they won a memorable game where fans stormed the field in 2005.Since that game, Penn State has gone 11-25 against Top 25 teams and 0-9 against top 5 teams. Four of those losses to top 5 teams have come to Ohio State.They know this is a big game, Franklin said. We dont need to tell them that. They understand how big this game is. They see it all over social media and everything else and walking around town and on campus and from their families and ticket requests and all those things. They get it.By Tuesday afternoon, students who camp outside their entrance to the stadium had tents set up nearly to the road, another indication of the games gravitas. It prompted Franklin to mention the games atmosphere and expressed his desire for fans to show up and be heard.Urban Meyer quipped earlier this week about the planned white-out, where everyone in the 106,572-seat complex wears white.We have another tough task, a team thats 4-0 at home, Meyer said. I called it -- the last two times, wish they saved the white outs for other games, but I guess they used it for our game. Its one of the top five atmospheres, again, in college football.Haley has felt the ground rumble with white-out crowds in the past. He and his teammates will try to maintain the pulse at their feet by slowing the Buckeyes rushing attack and disrupting Barretts time to extend plays with his feet.We need to make them a one-dimensional team, Haley said. We obviously need to stop the run, quarterback runs, especially. Jalen Hurd Super Bowl Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. Kendrick Bourne Super Bowl Jersey . Ibaka equaled a career high with 20 rebounds, adding four blocked shots and 15 points as the Thunder smothered the Milwaukee Bucks offence in a 92-79 victory Saturday night. https://www.49ersrookiestore.com/49ers-Deebo-Samuel-Jersey/ .

Colin Kaepernick Super Bowl Jersey . -- Kyrie Irvings last-minute 3-pointer helped seal another victory for Cleveland -- and the Cavaliers longest winning streak since LeBron James left. Kyle Juszczyk Super Bowl Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- It felt like those old college days for Jeremy Lamb.Starting in the same backcourt as Kemba Walker for the first time since Connecticut beat Butler in the 2011 NCAA championship game, Lamb turned in one of his best games since joining the NBA.Walker scored 28 points, Lamb added 18 points and a career-high 17 rebounds and the Charlotte Hornets snapped a four-game losing streak with a 107-102 victory over the New York Knicks on Saturday night.Its always good to play with Kemba, Lamb said. Hes a great leader and carried us tonight. We definitely needed that win tonight.Lamb got the first start since joining the Hornets last season because Nicolas Batum was out with an eye injury. He made the most of the opportunity, joining Russell Westbrook as the only guards this season with at least 15 rebounds in a game.Lamb had missed 10 games this season dealing with a hamstring injury, which coach Steve Clifford said made his performance all the more remarkable.He literally hasnt done anything with contact for close to a month, Clifford said. His game is based on skill. Hes a skill-based player and he showed that tonight. Hes always been a good offensive rebounder. Tonight he was both.Walker called Lambs effort incredible.We needed rebounding bad and the bigs did a great job of boxing their man out and he came out of nowhere to snatch every rebound, Walker said. He played awesome.The Hornets (9-7) avenged an overtime loss to the Knicks on Friday night at Madison Square Garden in which Carmelo Anthony hit the go-ahead jumper with 3.1 seconds left and finished with 35 points.Anthony didnt fare as well the second time around, limited to 18 points on 7-of-24 shooting. Kristaps Porzingis had 25 points and Derrick Rose added 18 points, eight assists and eight rebounds for the Knicks.The Knicks battled back from a 21-point, first-half deficit to take the lead briefly with 7:36 left in the game when Anthony drilled a turnaround jumper from the baseline.But the Hornets regained control behind Walker, who made an underhand layup and two free throws to put the Hornnets up 105-99 with 21 seconds left.dddddddddddd Justin Holidays 3-pointer cut the lead to three with 11.2 seconds left, but Lamb made two free throws to help seal the game.We have to get off to better starts, Knicks coach Jeff Hornacek said. That start, I think they had 24 points in the first six and a half minutes of the game. Thats kind of probably where the game was lost right there. We battled back, but it takes a lot of energy.TIP-INSKnicks: Porzingis has tallied 20-plus points in nine contests this season. ... Joakim Noah was held without a point in 13 minutes of action.Hornets: Forward Marvin Williams is expected to miss about a week after an MRI revealed a bone bruise in his left knee. ... Walker recorded his 13th game with 20-plus points this season. ... Marco Belinellis minutes were limited by a hamstring injury.CLIFFORDS COMMENTSClifford ripped into his players during a pregame press conference for a lack of hustle and his team seemed to get the message.Coach just really pushes us because he has high expectations for us, Lamb said. He just told (us) were better than how were playing and that if we played together and played like a team that nobody could beat us.SHOOT THE BALLHornacek was pleased that Brandon Jennings and Courtney Lee shot the ball more.Were trying to encourage them, `Hey, when you have the open shot, shoot it, Hornacek said. Both of them I think took a step forward at least with that tonight.FRANK THE TANKFrank Kaminsky added 14 points, including two clutch 3-pointers late in the fourth quarter as the Hornets snapped the Knicks three-game winning streak.POINT GUARDS UPAt one point, the Hornets had three point guards on the floor in Walker, Ramon Sessions and Brian Roberts to combat the Knicks small ball lineup.UP NEXTKnicks: New York returns home to host Oklahoma City on Monday night.Hornets: Charlotte heads out on the road to face Memphis on Monday night, a team it lost to earlier this season at home.
