KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee and Texas enter their annual womens basketball matchup amid unusual circumstances.The 17th-ranked Longhorns (2-4) will remain below .500 whether it wins or loses Sundays matchup in Austin, Texas. Tennessee (4-3) has tumbled out of the Top 25 and would drop to .500 with a loss, which would mark the latest point in a season that the Lady Volunteers havent had a winning record since starting out 4-5 in 1981-82.Weve just got to have more of a sense of urgency, Tennessee coach Holly Warlick said of her team. I think the atmosphere and the tone in practice has been, `Lets go to work. This is a business. Youve got a job. Youve got to get it done. Both teams reached regional finals last year but havent been able to carry that momentum over thus far.Texas had to replace three players who started nearly every game for Texas last season in first-team all-Big 12 center Imani Boyette, Empress Davenport and Celina Rodrigo.The Longhorns record also is somewhat deceiving because all four of its losses have come against top-10 teams: No. 1 Connecticut, No. 5 Mississippi State, No. 6 South Carolina and No. 10 Stanford. Of those four losses, only the South Carolina game was on Texas home floor.There are teams across the country that have maybe played one high-level game, Texas coach Karen Aston said. We could easily have put ourselves in that situation, and we wouldnt have many losses and wed probably have a false confidence about ourselves because young players have to learn by trial and error.Texas instead has learned some tough lessons while averaging 17.3 turnovers per game.Tennessee is coming off an 88-66 loss to No. 3 Baylor that matched the Lady Vols most lopsided home defeat ever. Tennessee trailed that game by as many as 35 points.We started off kind of slow and got ourselves in a hole we couldnt get out of, Tennessee center Mercedes Russell said. We werent dictating. We were just letting them do whatever they wanted.Tennessee committed 15 turnovers against Baylor and had 21 more in a loss at Virginia Tech a week earlier. The Lady Vols have spent the last few days emphasizing the importance of playing with more energy than they showed against Baylor.The more we would turn the ball over or do things (wrong), the more kind of hesitant we got, Warlick said. When you get hesitant, you worry about how youre playing, and you dont have any energy and you dont have any effort.Both teams still have plenty of time to turn things around.Tennessee need only point to last year, when the Lady Vols had their most losses (14) in school history yet rallied late in the season to reach a regional final. And while Texas is only one defeat away from matching the loss total from last seasons 31-5 campaign, all those early lessons could pay dividends for the Longhorns as the season wears on.Im not displeased at all, Aston said. I would be displeased if in a month we dont look like weve made some improvement because of the situations weve been in.---Follow Steve Megargee at www.twitter.com/stevemegargee Sneakers Adidas Nmd Femme . -- An ugly goal by Nick Bonino helped the Anaheim Ducks overcome the defensive-minded Phoenix Coyotes on a night when their ragged power play continued to struggle.

Here are a few things to watch in the Southeastern Conference during college footballs opening weekend.GAME OF THE WEEK: No. 11 Mississippi vs. No. 4 Florida State in Orlando, Florida. The Rebels are involved in one of the nations premier games this week, facing the Seminoles on Monday night at the Citrus Bowl. Ole Miss returns QB Chad Kelly, who threw for more than 4,000 yards last season. Florida State will counter with redshirt freshman Deondre Francois, who will be making his first career start under center. Francois will have help on offense: RB Dalvin Cook returns after running for 1,691 yards last season.MATCHUP OF THE WEEK: UCLA offensive tackle Conor McDermott vs. Texas A&M defensive end Myles Garrett: McDermott, a fifth-year senior, earned second-team all-Pac-12 honors last season as part of an offensive line that yielded only 14 sacks. McDermott will have his hands full Saturday lining up against Garrett, arguably the nations premier pass rusher. Garrett recorded 11 + sacks as a freshman in 2014 and followed that up by delivering 12 + sacks and 19 + tackles for loss last season.NUMBERS GAME: The SEC owns a 496-110 record and an .818 winning percentage since 2006. Thats the highest nonconference winning percentage of any league during that stretch. ... No. 5 LSU owns an FBS record 52 consecutive regular-season nonconference victories heading into Saturdays game with Wisconsin. LSU hasnt lost a regular-season nonconference game since falling 26-8 to Virginia Tech in its 2002 opener. ... No. 9 Tennessee is in the topp 10 for the first time since it was ranked eighth on Oct.dddddddddddd 29, 2006. ... Missouris visit to West Virginia marks the first time the Tigers have opened the season with a true road game since a 40-10 loss at Texas in 1996. .... No. 25 Florida has the lowest preseason ranking ever of a defending SEC East champion. Missouri was ranked 24th to start each of the last two seasons as a defending East Division champion.LONG SHOT: Wisconsin vs. No. 5 LSU: LSU should be really good this season, but its still surprising to see Wisconsin as a 10-point underdog, especially when its essentially a home game for the Badgers at Lambeau Field. LSU has one of the nations best running backs in Leonard Fournette, but needs improvement from junior quarterback Brandon Harris, who threw for 2,165 yards and 13 touchdowns last season.IMPACT PERFORMER: Georgia quarterback Jacob Eason: This true freshman from Lake Stevens, Washington, is competing with graduate student Greyson Lambert for the right to start No. 18 Georgias season opener Saturday against No. 22 North Carolina in Atlanta. Eason, who enrolled at Georgia in time to participate in spring practice, went 19 of 29 for 244 yards and a touchdown in the Bulldogs spring game.---AP Sports Writers Steve Megargee in Knoxville, Tennessee, and David Brandt in Jackson, Mississippi, contributed to this story.---AP College Football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
