Richmond have emerged from a week of turmoil to score a pressure-relieving 15-point win over Collingwood at the MCG.The Pies looked set to break Tiger hearts when they edged in front late in the final term on Friday night, but Damien Hardwicks embattled side dug deep to score a gutsy 14.8 (92) to 11.11 (77) victory in front of 49,122 fans.The Tigers were beaten from pillar to post in the media after their 88-point drubbing by Greater Western Sydney in round 19, and the calls for change appeared set to intensify when they conceded the first four goals of the game.Collingwood smashed Richmond 13-3 in clearances in the first quarter to lead by 14 points at the first break, and another week of yellow-and-black headlines loomed.But they showed the sort of spirit they have too often lacked this season to eke out a six-point lead at halftime that became a 12-point advantage at the final break.Pies skipper Scott Pendlebury looked set to drag his side over line when he kicked the first goal of the last quarter, but he limped out of the game soon after with an ankle injury that proved costly.A goal to James Aish put Collingwood back in front with less than 10 minutes left, but Dustin Martin, who finished with a game-high 34 possessions, was important as the Tigers held their nerve to kick the last three goals to secure the much-needed win.

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- South Carolina has won four of its past five games in a second-half revival of its season. Left guard Zack Bailey doesnt see why that has to end against No. 4 Clemson.Theyre just another team, thats all it is, Bailey said Tuesday. Anyone can be beaten at any time.Topping the Tigers (10-1, No. 4 CFP) seems like a tall order, even for the resurgent Gamecocks (6-5) who took down then 18th-ranked Tennessee last month in doubling their win total from a year ago. But Its not, Bailey said, not as long as the young Gamecocks dont let the moment -- along with the frenzied, sold-out crowd at Death Valley -- rattle them.Weve just got to be mentally focused, thats the biggest thing, he said. Know our assignments and do our job.Clemson has certainly opened the door at times this year for less-talented teams to hang in games at Memorial Stadium.Troy scored two touchdowns in the fourth quarter of Clemsons 30-24 victory in September. A month later, North Carolina State missed a last-second, 33-yard field goal for the win before the Tigers won in overtime. And then two weeks ago, it was Pitts Chris Blewitt with a 48-yard field goal at the end to lift the Panthers to a 43-42 upset at Clemson for its lone loss this year.In some of their past games, there are teams that have walked in there under those same circumstances and theyve put it to them, Bailey said.First-year coach Will Muschamp has put focus on the Clemson rivalry all year, continually reminding players to win the state.Its not going to take a flawless effort; its not going to take anything spectacular. We just need to go play well, Muschamp said.South Carolina charge began last month with the team 2-4 and struggling mightily on offense. Gamecocks first-year coach Will Muschamp put quarterback Jake Bentley -- coaches planned for the freshman to redshirt -- into the lineup and the spark was immediate.Bentley threw two touchdown passes (the Gamecocks had only two scoring throws its first six gaames) in a 34-28 win over UMass, then led a 24-21 upset of then 18th-ranked Tennessee.dddddddddddd The teams only defeat in that stretch was in their only road game under Bentley, a 20-7 defeat two weeks back at No. 13 Florida.The quarterbacks teammates say Bentley, a freshman who Muschamp has not yet allowed to speak with the media, wont be fazed by the frenetic atmosphere.Hes 18 years old, but walks in there with the confidence of a fifth-year senior, tight end Hayden Hurst said. I dont expect anything different out of Jake.Bentley left high school a year early to enroll at South Carolina this summer. Hell turn 18 on Wednesday.Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said Bentley is not your typical freshman.Bentleys father, Bobby, is the running backs coach at South Carolina. He was also a coach at Byrnes High that won four state championships and produced South Carolina record-setter, ex-tailback Marcus Lattimore.Jake Bentley has two brothers whove played college football. Chad Dodd was a former Rutgers starting quarterback while Shuler Bentley is a QB at Old Dominion.He is obviously well-groomed to be a very successful college quarterback, Swinney said.Jake Bentleys been helped by other rising young players on South Carolinas offense. Freshman Rico Dowdle has surpassed 100 yards rushing in three of the past four games, going for 226 yards in last weeks win over Western Carolina. Sophomore Deebo Samuel tops receivers with 41 catches, all but 10 of those coming with Bentley at quarterback, for 579 yards.Samuel, who had a 100-yard kickoff return touchdown in last weeks win over Western Carolina, said his focus is on continuing the streak and spoiling Clemsons chances of returning to the playoffs.Were going out there with a little more energy trying to ruin their season, Samuel said.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
