ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- Tim Williams scored a career-high 31 points and had 11 rebounds in New Mexicos 95-79 defeat of Houston Baptist on Monday night.Williams hit all but one of his 11 shots from the field and went 11-for-12 from the line while collecting his second double-double of the season for New Mexico (2-0). New Mexico outrebounded the Huskies 38-24.I thought Tim Williams was terrific, New Mexico coach Craig Neal said.Houston Baptist coach Ron Cottrell agreed.We thought that was going to be a matchup issue for us at the four, Cottrell said. We went to zone pretty quick, realizing that was going to be matchup issue throughout. We tried to cover that up going zone. Early on he had 10 quick points. In our man-to-man, we werent able to control him. Hes a load. Hes a heck of a player. Big, physical, really aggressive. I wouldnt want to go against him anymore.Jalen Harris added 13 points for the Lobos.New Mexico never trailed and it was briefly tied at 2. The Lobos gained control with a 14-2 run midway through the first half, building a double-digit lead that it retained for the rest of the game.Colter Lasher led Houston Baptist with 19 points. Four other Houston Baptist players also reached double figures.KEY STAT: The Lobos shot 72 percent (18 for 25) in the first half and 50 percent (10 for 20) in the second half.I thought our guys came out and played very tentative there at the beginning of the game, Cottrell said. I dont think we played up to our capability and we really let them take it straight at us. We had a nice discussion at the half about coming out and playing more aggressive and not just rolling over.KEY STAT II: The Lobos outscored the Houston Baptist 35-12 from the foul line and three Huskies players fouled out: Josh Ibarra, Braxton Bonds and Cody Stetler.We have to play inside out, if we do that well get people in foul trouble, well be able to get to the line, Neal said. When we start getting jump-shot happy, we wont be able to get to the line.UP NEXT: New Mexico is at home Friday against rival New Mexico State in the first of its two meetings. The Lobos have dominated the series of late, winning five of six games since Neal took the New Mexico helm. Buy Nike Air Max Plus Australia . McCarthy, a player who played some games in the second tier for Wigan at the start of this season, would go on to shine inside Evertons midfield, outplaying the man he was brought in to replace, on one of the grandest stages in English football. On Saturday, it was fitting that Manchester Uniteds most recent dagger into the chest was delivered by Frenchman Yohan Cabaye, a wonderfully gifted central midfielder who put on an outstanding effort for Newcastle at Old Trafford.

In taking its goal tally to 99 in all competitions already this season, City delivered another demonstration of its lethal firepower at Etihad Stadium to set up a fourth-round match at home to another second-tier team -- Watford.

The giant slalom world champion slipped during her first run in the morning, landing on her back and then twisting forward before getting her leg caught in the protective material on the side of the slope. Air Max Plus For Sale Cheap .Y. -- Injured Buffalo Sabres forward Marcus Foligno did not practice with the team Monday and head coach Ron Rolston said its unlikely hell play in Wednesdays season opener in Detroit. The Indianapolis Colts hope Andrew Luck can return from a concussion and signs are pointing he will play Monday night against the New York Jets.Regardless of who the quarterback is, Indianapolis knows there is little margin of error and the visit to MetLife Stadium represents a must-win situation.The good news for the Colts is Luck participated in Wednesdays practice with no restrictions and said he felt great.Luck suffered a concussion when the Titans 314-pound defensive tackle Austin Johnson landed on top of him in a Nov. 20 game after recording a sack -- one of the 36 opponents have recorded against him this season.At 5-6, the Colts are just behind the Houston Texans (6-5) and Tennessee Titans (6-6) in a competitive AFC South race. The Colts own the head-to-head tiebreaker with the Titans but lost in overtime to Houston, which they visit next week.To have opportunities to go out and try to win a football game and get a little closer to your goal, yeah, thats absolutely special, Luck said. Its all about focus on this game because if you dont take care of business this week its a moot point.Well I think the margin for error is obviously shrinking, but I think that, you know, were still in the hunt, Indianapolis general manager Ryan Grigson said. Theres, again, if you look through all the records in the league right now, I mean, the league, the way its set up, its beyond parity.Of course those things might become irrelevant for the Colts if they lose to the Jets. It remains likely Luck could start but as of Wednesday, he was still in the concussion protocol and if he misses more time down the stretch it will be the second straight season the Colts were without Luck late in the season.Yeah, you want to have all your guys out there and certainly Andrew is a guy you want to have on the field, Indianapolis coach Chuck Pagano said Wednesday. I think everybody is excited about that. Whatever happens, this team will deal with it. It doesnt matter. They will respond to whatever the circumstances are, whatever the adversity is just like they did last year to find a way to win games and sometimes you have to do it without the guy and that is not the case right now hopefully.Last season, Luck missed nine games with rib injuries. The Colts were 4-5 when he was lost for the season, won the first two games without him but had an inopportune three-game losing streak and wound up 8-8.The Colts are in their current predicament because of a 1/3 start that featured close defeats to the Detroit Lions and Jacksonville Jaguars.Indianapolis has won four of its last six games but its first game without Luck did not go well.In the 28-7 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Nov.dddddddddddd 24, Scott Tolzien was 22 of 36 for 205 yards.T.Y. Hilton was limited to three catches for 54 yards before bruising his lower back. Hilton practiced Wednesday after sitting out Monday and seems likely to play.Like the Colts, the Jets quarterback situation is driving headlines but it has nothing to do with health. Fans are clamoring for Bryce Petty to start but Jets coach Todd Bowles said Ryan Fitzpatrick will start despite a 3-8 record.Fitzpatrick has struggled most of this season by throwing 13 interceptions in 10 games. Fitzpatrick has completed 57.6 percent of his passes, down from his 59.6 percent completion rate last season when he had 31 touchdown passes and only 15 interceptions.Petty started Nov. 13 and threw for 163 yards in New Yorks 9-6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Fitzpatrick returned to the starting job and completed 22 of 32 passes with two touchdowns in Sundays 22-17 loss to the New England Patriots when the team opted for a conservative game plan on dump offs and short passes.Its not about Bryce and its not about Fitz, its about our team trying to win ball games, Jets coach Todd Bowles said Monday. Right now, Fitz is our starter. He gives us a good chance to win.Last week, Tom Brady was listed as questionable with a knee injury against the Jets. While Lucks return is not official, the Jets are preparing to face him.I thought hed play, Bowles said. They hadnt played since Thursday so they had a lot of days off for him to get ready to play. The challenge of facing him -- hes another great quarterback.Hes big, hes tall (and) he can run with the football, very intelligent, throws a great deep ball, can scramble and get out of the grass because of his size. You think you can run him down but hes pretty quick and pretty nimble for a big guy and hes always looking downfield to throw the ball so we have our hands full.The Jets have done well in two wins against Luck. In those meetings, Luck has completed 43 of 81 passes for 530 yards with one touchdown, five interceptions. He also has been sacked four times and has a career 52.0 passer rating against New York.Last season, New York recorded a 20-7 victory in Indianapolis by forcing five turnovers in a Monday night game. Cornerback Darrelle Revis had an interception and recovered two fumbles but this year Revis has continued a slide that began late last season and included him allowing two touchdowns and four completions for 41 yards last week according to Pro Football Focus.
