NEW ORLEANS -- Allenzae Staggers set New Orleans Bowl records with 11 catches for 230 yards and also scored a touchdown to help Southern Mississippi beat Louisiana-Lafayette 28-21 on Saturday night.Nick Mullens, the Southern Miss all-time leader in yards passing and passing touchdowns, finished his distinguished career by throwing for 346 yards and two TDs.One of Mullens TD tosses was a 6-yarder to running back Ito Smith, who also rushed for 138 yards and two scores.However, Mullens turnovers helped the Ragin Cajuns keep the game competitive despite the Golden Eagles (7-6) outgaining ULL (6-7) 481 yards to 252.Mullens second-quarter fumble and fourth-quarter interception both led to Cajuns touchdowns, the latter on a short run by ULL quarterback Anthony Jennings that trimmed Southern Miss lead to 28-21 with 5:10 to go.ULL got the ball back once more, starting on its own 18-yard line with 2:02 to go, but Jennings overthrew a fourth-down pass as he rolled right.Jennings scored twice on runs for the Ragin Cajuns, who often struggled to move the ball through the air. A transfer who once started for LSU, Jennings completed 8 of 20 passes for 95 yards. He was intercepted once -- by Tarvarius Moore on the Southern Miss goal line -- and sacked six times, including three times by JaBoore Pool.REGROUPINGThe Cajuns composure was tested early. Mullens completed his first three passes for 127 yards and a touchdown to Smith, who also rushed for the games opening TD as the Golden Eagles took a 14-0 lead inside the first 8 minutes.But ULL methodically pulled itself back into the game, starting when Jennings led a nine-play, 66-yard drive capped by his 4-yard TD to make it 14-7. In the second quarter, Tremaine Lightfoots sack and strip of Mullens was scooped and returned 15 yards by Otha Peters to the Southern Miss 29, setting up a tying 12-yard TD run by reserve QB Dion Ray, who periodically ran plays out of a wildcat formation.TAKING THEIR TIMEAs the first half ended, Mullens rushed the Southern Miss offense to the line of scrimmage to try to spike the ball and stop the clock so the Golden Eagles could try a 45-yard field goal. The clock read zero after his spike, but officials ordered 1 second put back on the clock. Louisiana-Lafayette then used both of its remaining timeouts in an effort to disrupt kicker Parker Shaunfields rhythm. After the second timeout, officials decided to review the previous play and ruled that time had expired after all, ending the half in a 14-all tie.UP NEXTSouthern Miss: The first order of business is to find a replacement for Mullens, who leaves the Golden Eagles as the programs career leader in yards passing (11,994) and TD passes (87). Complicating that transition at QB is the departure of three-year starting center Cameron Tom and starting guards Oliver Bates and Brandon Farmer.Louisiana-Lafayette: The Cajuns are expected to apply to the NCAA for another year of eligibility for Jennings, but prospects for approval appear slim. The next QB could come from the junior college ranks. The offense also loses Elijah McGuire, who ranks second all-time in rushing for ULL, and top receiver Al Riles.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 Vapormax Mens Clearance .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.

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica -- Looking a bit shocked, Jurgen Klinsmann called it a bitter moment four times in 14 minutes and also a bitter pill to swallow during his post-match news conference. He described the 4-0 wipeout in a World Cup qualifier against Costa Rica as the defeat that hurts most during his five-year tenure as U.S. coach.Time for a new leader?Outside the room, U.S. Soccer Federation President Sunil Gulati expressed patience.We dont make any decisions right after games, Gulati said. Well think about what happened today and talk with Jurgen and look at the situation.The U.S. is 0-2 in the final round of World Cup qualifying for the first time following a 2-1 home loss to Mexico last week and its ninth straight defeat in a qualifier at Costa Rica. Given a rare opportunity to coach a national team for a second World Cup cycle, Klinsmann is under renewed scrutiny by critics who claim his reign has gone stale.I obviously understand that when you lose two games and especially two World Cup qualifiers right after each other, that there will be a lot of your comments, he told reporters after the match. That is just part of the job.A World Cup champion with West Germany in 1990 and the coach who led Germany to the 2006 semifinals at home, Klinsmann replaced Bob Bradley after a poor U.S. performance in the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup, where Mexico beat the Americans 4-2 in the final.Klinsmann coached the U.S to the 2013 Gold Cup title and the second round of the 2014 World Cup, where the Americans lost to Belgium in extra time, but the U.S. was upset by Jamaica in the 2015 Gold Cup semifinals and lost a playoff to Mexico for a Confederations Cup berth, sparking skepticism of personnel decisions and tactics.Play improved again at this years Copa America, where victories over Paraguay and Ecuador advanced the U.S. to the semifinals -- and a 4-0 loss to Lionel Messi and Argentina.Then came the start of the hexagonal, as the final round of the North and Central American and Caribbean region is known, and it could not have gone much worse.When you lose 4-nil, there are issues, absolutely, Klinsmann said.Soccer powers traditionally have little tolerance for defeat.When Mexico lost a World Cup qualifier at home against Honduras in September 2013, coach Jose Manuel De la Torre was fired about 4 1/2 hours after the final whistle and replaced by Luis Fernando Tena. When El TTri lost a few days later in the United States, Tena was replaced within 48 hours by Victor Manuel Vucetich.dddddddddddd Two games later, Vucetich was supplanted by Miguel Herrera.Obviously, its not a good start to the hex and today in particular was not a good performance, Gulati said.Because the top three nations qualify and the No. 4 team advances to a playoff against Asias fifth-place finisher, there is much room for error. That wont quiet fans who have four months to vent before qualifying resumes with a home game against Honduras on March 24 and a match at Panama four days later.This is definitely a moment to reflect about what happened the last 10 days and to probably open up a lot of discussions with the players, with the team, Klinsmann said.He also was criticized in March 2013 after the Americans opened the hex with a 2-1 loss at Honduras. They rebounded the following month to beat Costa Rica 1-0 in a Colorado snow storm and tie 0-0 at Mexico, and they went on to clinch a World Cup berth in the eighth match of the 10-game round. After qualifying and before the World Cup, Klinsmann shifted Mart?n Vasquez out of his assistants role and brought in former Germany coach Berti Vogts as a technical adviser.The U.S. has shifted coaches during qualifying just once in the modern era. Bob Gansler, then coach at Wisconsin-Milwaukee, took over from Lothar Osiander in January 1989 when the USSF transformed the position to a fulltime job, and Ganslers team qualified for the 1990 World Cup -- the first for the U.S. in 40 years.Gulati, the USSF president for the past decade, moves methodically, consulting his board and advisers.Was the result embarrassing? Yes. But Im not embarrassed by our team. Im very disappointed, obviously.Most of the players wont gather again until March 20, just ahead of the Honduras match. The margin for error has narrowed, especially with Mexico, Costa Rica and Panama opening with road wins.Theres going to need to be some urgency, U.S. captain Michael Bradley said. Were going to have to look collectively real hard in the mirror at ourselves and understand its not been a good start. But the reality of this hexagonal format is that nothing is lost yet, not even close. So anybody who thinks that is sorely mistaken. ' ' '
