SEATTLE -- Adoree Jackson sprinted into the purple end zone, planted his feet and flipped backward , perfectly sticking the landing. Cheap Warriors Jerseys .Southern California celebrated its biggest victory of the season with style and flash Saturday night.Sam Darnold threw for 287 yards and two touchdowns and USC upset No. 4 Washington 26-13 on Saturday night, snapping the Huskies 12-game winning streak and damaging their College Football Playoff hopes.Darnold was outstanding against one of the top defenses in the Pac-12, showing why USC has surged since he became the starter. Darnolds lofted pass over linebacker D.J. Beavers and into the arms of tight end Daniel Imatorbhebhe for an 8-yard touchdown strike in the opening moments of the fourth quarter gave USC an 11-point lead that Washington (9-1, 6-1 Pac-12, No. 4 CFP) couldnt overcome.To play that game, at this age, in that atmosphere? Unbelievable, USC coach Clay Helton said.Ronald Jones II added 93 yards rushing and a touchdown. USC (7-3, 6-2, No. 20 CFP) won its sixth straight and should get back into the AP Top 25 while keeping alive its hopes of winning the Pac-12 South.Washington coach Chris Petersen cautioned all week that USC was back to looking like the most talented team in the Pac-12 and he was proved correct. Darnold flustered Washingtons defense by keeping plays alive with his feet and found gaps in the Huskies secondary that have been difficult for others to find.If guys are looking down the horizon, youre going to get hit right between the eyes, Petersen said. Theres too many good players and coaches in this league. ... I think we played a good team tonight.Darreus Rogers had six catches for 84 yards and a touchdown, while Imatorbhebhe added five catches for 78 yards. Washington lost starting middle linebacker Azeem Victor in the second quarter to a lower right leg injury that required an air cast and a cart to take the Huskies leading tackler off the field. His absence was felt in the pass game where USC exploited the middle of the field.When you have great players in front of you ... its your job to get them the ball and find the open guy. I thought I did that pretty well tonight, Darnold said.Washington quarterback Jake Browning was 17 of 36 for 259 yards, including a 70-yard TD pass to John Ross where he shook Jackson at the line of scrimmage. Ross finished with eight catches for 154 yards, but the Huskies were held to 17 yards rushing after coming into the week as the Pac-12 leader averaging 231 yards per game.Heres where we find out if were the front-runners that are only playing well when things are going well or are we going to respond and bounce back stronger? Browning said. That will be interesting to see what kind of team are we.When USC went ahead 10-3 on Rogers 13-yard TD catch it was the first time Washington trailed at home since the first quarter of last Novembers Apple Cup against Washington State. The 17-6 halftime lead for the Trojans marked Washingtons first halftime deficit in more than a calendar year. The Huskies last trailed at the break on Nov. 7, 2015, against Utah, a game they lost 34-23.It was the drive just before halftime that put USC in control. Taking over at the 18 with 2:27 left in the half, Darnold completed 4 of 7 passes for 75 yards and capped the drive with Jones 4-yard TD run and an 11-point lead at the break.USC also got a huge play from Jack Jones in the third quarter blocking Cameron Van Winkles 38-yard field goal attempt after Darnold was intercepted for a second time by Washingtons Taylor Rapp.POLL IMPLICATIONSWelcome back to the AP Top 25 , USC. The Trojans were the first team outside the Top 25 last week but certainly will make a significant leap after the impressive win. With rest of the chaos this week, perhaps USC will crack the top 20.The chaos in the top 10 may help Washington also. The Huskies may not be penalized as much because of other top 10 teams losing.THE TAKEAWAYUSC: Jackson didnt have the best night, especially when he was matched up in coverage on Ross. But he came up with two key interceptions, both times using his quickness to break in front of the receivers and grab Brownings pass.Washington: The big plays that have been part of Washingtons success all season were absent. Washington had just three plays of longer than 20 yards: Two by Ross and a 28-yard pass to Chico McClatcher.INJURY REPORTPetersen did not have much of an update after the game on Victors injury. Its another blow to Washingtons defense that is likely to be without defensive end and sack leader Joe Mathis for the rest of the season due to foot surgery.UP NEXTUSC: The Trojans travel across town next Saturday to face rival UCLA at the Rose Bowl.Washington: The Huskies close out their home schedule hosting Arizona State.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-Top25 Cheap NBA Jerseys .

He said Tuesday thats a big reason why he is now the new coach of the Tennessee Titans. Whisenhunt said he hit it off quickly with Ruston Webster when interviewing for the job Friday night.The British Horseracing Authority believes the recommendations made in a new review will set out a blueprint for how its integrity team should operate in the future. The integrity review was launched last summer with the team - which was led by the BHAs director of integrity, legal and risk, Adam Brickell and included an independent regulatory director in Sir Paul Stephenson as well as a panel of leading experts from the fields of sport, regulation and racing - interviewing more than 100 individuals.Trainers, owners, jockeys - and their representative bodies - the betting public, media, legal representatives and others who have an interest in British racings integrity work were able to put forward their views and while the overall impression was favourable, some criticisms were highlighted. The BHA has identified some recurring themes and specific areas where there are opportunities for improvement, prompting a list of suggestions as to how processes and procedures may be improved.The review makes six main recommendations with the establishment of a stakeholder integrity forum, which will include licensed personnel, to act as an advisory group the first key point.Improvements to the investigation, case management and disciplinary process is the second area pinpointed in the review, with proposal of a formal investigation charter to everyone involved in an investigation, at the outset, which sets out their rights and obligations and what they can expect from the process, as well as a code of conduct.The BHA will develop a fast-track process to deal with minor or admitted offences outside of the full disciplinary process and a review of the level of penalties for minor rule breaches.The formalisation of a new integrity strategy, with the aim to do more to educate and protect the majority of participants who comply or are trying to comply with the rules along with looking at improvements to the way in which the media, racing and betting public and the sports participants are informed on what the BHA are doing to protect the integrity of the sport.The BHA also plans to work with stakeholders to review the structure, composition and processes of the Disciplinary Panel, Licensing Committee and Appeal Board to make sure that the sports participants have full confidence in them.Finally, the BHAs extension of partnerships with other organisations across the betting industry, other racing jurisdictions, other sports and regulators in order to increase access to intelligence is also recommended.A number of other smaller ideas were also proposed, including the establishment of a set of guidelines as to the acceptable time-frame within which a disciplinary panel would be expected to produce a decision and reasons following an inquiry, an annual public integrity survey and adding new senior-level resource within the integrity, legal and risk department.

From my brief time within the racing industry and from the people I have spoken to as part of this review it has become clear to me that British Racing is seen as a leader when it comes to managing sporting integrity.This is evidenced by the fact that other sports and racing jurisdictions constantly contact us for guidance on running integrity services.However, we do not have a divine right to this reputation. Hence this Review was instigated to ensure that British Racing is doing all it can to maintain and improve this reputation.Brickell was pleased to see a largely favourable overview of the BHAs work but believes constructive criticism is a valuable tool.He said: The BHA has an excelleent track record of detecting and taking action to remove corruption from British horse racing. Cheap Swingman Warriors Jerseys. e are not complacent, and this review, far from revealing serious weaknesses in our approach, shows that we are open, transparent and committed to continuously improving in order to remain among the worlds leaders in sport integrity. It also shows we are confident enough to admit when we make mistakes and to learn from them.We believe that the resultant recommendations, which include some notable, tangible improvements and additions to our procedures and policies, will set out a blueprint for how the BHA integrity team should work with the sport to continue to set standards for others to follow.I am extremely grateful to all of those who gave up their time to take part in the review. We were, at times, challenged robustly by those individuals and it is only through being challenged in such a way that you can learn and improve.An Independent Challenge Panel was established to oversee the Review and ensure the rigour and fairness of the process and to challenge the direction of the Review and the recommendations that arose. The Panel was chaired byNick Bitel, chief executive of the London Marathon and consultant at Kerman & Co solicitors, chaired the challenge panel.He was pleased the BHA admitted its failings in some previous cases, including those of trainers Jim Boyle and Kate Walton, who were involved in investigations which took long periods of time to be resolveed.He said: The challenge panel considers that the review was thorough and carried out properly in accordance with its remit, and reflects a serious and constructive approach by the BHA to achieving the objectives of the review.While we felt that the initial scope and terms of reference were too narrow, we are pleased that, at our request, the BHA widened the review to include some aspects of its disciplinary structure, and that based on the results, has now agreed to a further, separate review of the structure, composition and processes of the Disciplinary Board and Appeal Panel.The Panel applauds the willingness of the BHA to recognise and apologise for past failings, both generally and in the specific case studies of Jim Boyle and Kate Walton included within the review.Paul Struthers, chief executive of the Professional Jockeys Association, welcomed the reviews recommendations.He said: We are pleased that any concerns that this could be a case of the BHA marking its own homework have proved unfounded.The review acknowledges a number of areas for improvement and the correctly offered apologies to Kate Walton and Jim Boyle further demonstrate the change in tone and approach that has been increasingly seen under Nick Rusts tenure.We welcome the review and recommendations and the review team, led by Adam, should be applauded for their work.It is of course vital these recommendations are fully implemented and that outstanding concerns around disciplinary panel processes are addressed.The PJA fully supports a robust integrity framework but this has to be fair and transparent. This review and recommendations, once implemented, should help to ensure this and repair the confidence that had otherwise been lost.Rupert Arnold, chief executive of the National Trainers Federation (NTF), added: We are pleased that the review acknowledges that there have been failings in the investigatory and disciplinary processes.We would especially point to the recommendation to create an investigation charter and code of conduct for disciplinary cases. Defendants must be treated properly and understand how the process will develop.We also welcome the other recommendations including an emphasis on protection and education and alternative methods of dealing with minor offences as well as exploring the provision of pro bono legal advice for disciplinary hearings.
