Oklahoma City to Phoenix

Current records: Oklahoma City 11-19; Phoenix 25-5

What there is to know

The Oklahoma City Thunder could have tired legs after a game yesterday as they head to the road against the Phoenix Suns at 9 p.m. ET on December 23 at the Footprint Center. If the contest looks like Phoenix’s 123-120 victory when they last met in May, the scorer will be very busy.

The Thunder were expected to lose to the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday, but instead they received a cute Christmas stocking. The stars were shining for Oklahoma City in a 108-94 victory over Denver. It was another big night for Oklahoma City shooting guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who clocked a triple-double with 27 points, 12 dimes and 11 rebounds. This is Gilgeous-Alexander’s first triple-double of the season.

Meanwhile, the stars were shining for Phoenix in a 108-90 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday. The Suns’ success was led by the efforts of shooter Devin Booker, who shot 6 for 11 from beyond the arc and finished with 24 points, seven assists and nine boards, and center Deandre Ayton, who has dropped a double-double on 19 points and 11 boards. It’s been four straight games in which Ayton has taken at least ten rebounds.

The Thunder need to know they’re going to fight an uphill battle given the 15-point gap they face. They are currently four-to-four ATS in their most recent games, however, a trend that punters might want to consider.

Oklahoma City is now 11-19 while Phoenix is ​​25-5. A few offensive numbers to keep in mind before kick-off: Oklahoma City are stumbling into the game with the fewest points per game in the league, accumulating just 99.5 points on average. The Suns’ offense has more to brag about, as they rank first in the league when it comes to field goal percentage, at 47.70% this season. The cards are therefore definitely stacked in their favor.

through 3 quarters

The Oregon State Beavers were expected to take an “L” in this one, but so far that doesn’t play out in the script. After three quarters, it increasingly looks like their powerful offense is too much for the USC Trojans as the Beavers lead 35-17. Oregon State capitalized on the performance of QB Chance Nolan, who had four touchdowns and 213 yards on 17 attempts in addition to picking up 47 rushing yards.

Oregon State and USC entered this game with wins in previous games. We’ll see if the state of Oregon can maintain its lead to secure another victory and undo the positive energy from USC.

Current records: Oregon State 2-1; USC 2-1

What there is to know

The USC Trojans and Oregon State Beavers will face off in a Pac-12 showdown at 10:30 p.m. ET on September 25 at United Airlines Field in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. After these two teams get rid of their previous opponents, one of them is about to suffer a disheartening setback.

USC won their game against the Washington State Cougars last week by a concluding score of 45-14. The fight was almost over by the end of the third, by which time the Trojans had established a 35-14 advantage. WR Drake London was the offensive star of the game for USC, catching 13 passes for two touchdowns and 170 yards.

The USC defense was also there, as it tallied two interceptions and two fumbles. The choices came courtesy of S Calen Bullock and CB Jayden Williams.

Meanwhile, Oregon State kept their clean sheet against the Idaho Vandals last week and reduced Game 42 to zero. The game was pretty much decided at half-time, when the score was already 28 to zero.

USC are the favorites in this one, with an expected margin of victory of 11 points. They’ve been consistent cash generators against the spread when favored (2-0), so they could be worth a quick bet.

The victories brought the two teams to an identical 2-1. A pair of defensive numbers to keep in mind before kick-off: The Trojans enter the competition with the 169th most passing yards allowed per game in the country, after allowing 240.7 on average . The Beavers have had their own passing struggles as they are 187th worst in the country in passing yards allowed per game, averaging 254.3. It’s possible that one of those Achilles’ heels will end up tripping the losing team.

Many say the New England Patriots have started to change their season. They beat the New York Jets well last weekend, but the Jets stink and their quarterback missed most of the game, and it was at home, and they had faced them earlier in the season. . So, was this a real turning point?

This was not the case. I answered the question for you. Week 8 against the Los Angeles Chargers is the game most will judge the Patriots in. Los Angeles is under a new lease of life, with a talented team, a great young quarterback, and this game is on the road. Can New England continue to roll on this new positive dynamic?

Due to a plethora of injuries from their opponent this week, the Denver Broncos are just slight underdogs compared to the Cleveland Browns here Thursday night despite a three-game slippage and some pretty bad football played by the Oranges and the blues lately.

Game preview

After spending most of Sunday and Monday in a fit of rage over how badly the Broncos played the Las Vegas Raiders at home, I didn’t even start to really dig into this game until Tuesday and what I found once I did inexplicably gave me some hope that this team can once again move things in the right direction.

The Browns are a good football team, but also fickle. It is then that they are in good health. In this game, they won’t have their starting quarterback, both their starting running backs and a starting wide receiver or two. It is absolutely a winnable game for Denver.

Having said that, they really have to execute a game plan. Granted, the offensive game plan seems to be hampered by Pat Shurmur’s inability to adjust to what works in the game, but players can still make it work if they just start hitting the pieces they want. have been missing lately. weeks. If they can regain control of the clock, they will also help the defense get back on track.

There are a lot of ifs, but if the Broncos can’t win this game, they won’t have many wins left in 2021. Win this game and maybe they can turn it around.

Here is how to watch.

The game

In Game 5 of the NFL Super Wild Card Weekend for the 2021 season, the second-seeded Kansas City Chiefs host the seventh-seeded Pittsburgh Steelers at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday night football. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:15 p.m. Arrowhead time. The game will air on NBC — locally on KSHB/41.

Three weeks ago, the Steelers came to Kansas City and fell to the Chiefs 36-10. The victory pushed the Chiefs’ record to 11-4, winning the AFC West (and at least one playoff home game) for a record sixth consecutive season. The Steelers, however, fell to 7-7-1. In Pittsburgh, there was real concern that in what is widely considered quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s final season before retirement, the team would miss the playoffs.

Over the next two weeks, the Chiefs suffered a narrow loss to the Cincinnati Bengals – who all but eliminated their chance for the AFC’s No. 1 seed – and beat the Denver Broncos to end the season at 12. -5. Meanwhile, the Steelers were minding business in the AFC North, beating the Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens in the final two weeks of the regular season – and in Week 18 grabbed the last AFC ticket to the dance when the Indianapolis Colts improbably lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Las Vegas Raiders beat the Los Angeles Chargers.

But what happened in the final two weeks of the regular season isn’t the only thing that’s changed since Week 16. When the two teams last met, each was without their usual key player contributions. both in attack and defense.

Both teams were missing their starting tight ends. Pittsburgh rookie Pat Freiermuth was on the league’s concussion protocol, while future Kansas City Hall of Famer Travis Kelce was dropped from the team’s Reserve/COVID roster. Both teams had big stars playing but were severely limited. Steelers rusher TJ Watt was nursing badly bruised ribs, while Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill was just off the COVID roster. Kansas City rookie linebacker Nick Bolton was still on the COVID roster — and Pittsburgh wide JuJu Smith-Schuster was on injured reserve with what was initially believed to be a late-season shoulder injury. season.

All of these players will be available for Sunday night’s game. Meanwhile, Chiefs starting running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire – who was injured in the Week 16 contest – has been told outside. But Steelers starter Najee Harris – listed as questionable on Friday’s final injury report — was removed from Saturday’s report and will play in Kansas City.

So while the Chiefs are favored by 12.5 points in this game – and could win it by that much, thus advancing to face the Buffalo Bills at Arrowhead next weekend – it is also possible that the Steelers are not. as overwhelmed as they were three weeks ago. . With a win, Pittsburgh would face the Tennessee Titans in Nashville, extending Roethlisberger’s career by at least one more game.

through 3 quarters

The Chicago Bulls are on the road but don’t look worse for wear and tear. Three quarters and their attack really knew how to impose its will, dominating the Los Angeles Lakers 96-73 in three quarters.

Chicago is led by small forward DeMar DeRozan, who so far has 38 points and four assists. One thing to watch out for is the dire plight of Derrick Jones Jr., who is currently five years old.

Los Angeles leaned on forward Anthony Davis, who has 20 points with six boards, and point guard Russell Westbrook, who has 21 points and seven assists in addition to six rebounds.

If the contest was over now, that would be the Bulls’ biggest margin of victory to date this season.

through 3 quarters

Six behind at the end of the last quarter, the Dallas Mavericks have now taken the lead. It’s anyone’s game after three quarters, but Dallas leads the Los Angeles Clippers 80-76.

The Mavericks were led by playmaker Luka Doncic, who so far has 26 points and seven assists in addition to five rebounds. A double-double would be Doncic’s fourth in a row. Doncic has to be careful though, as he’s having big problems with four. Shooting goaltender Tim Hardaway Jr. is also struggling with four fouls.

Playmaker Reggie Jackson has led the way so far for Los Angeles, with 26 points and five boards.

The Clippers haven’t lost 86% of the games they’ve been late in before the final period this season, so a win here would be refreshing.
