Corey Davis doesnt often get to operate in the limelight, but he will be on the national television stage Tuesday, a day in which most Americans head to the polls.
Bob Griese Jersey .Best Receiver in the Nation isnt on the ballot, but the Western Michigan stars name would certainly be listed if that category was up for voting.Davis is 210 yards away from becoming the FBS career leader in receiving yards, and the Broncos look to remain unbeaten when they visit Kent State in Mid-American Conference play (7:30 p.m. ET, ESPN2).Davis has helped put Western Michigan (9-0, 5-0 MAC) in position to record 10 victories in a season for the first time in school history. The Broncos are one of five remaining unbeaten teams and are 14th in this weeks Associated Press poll.Davis is coming off a huge performance in which he caught 12 passes for a school-record 272 yards and three touchdowns in a 52-20 rout of Ball State last Tuesday in a nationally televised game. Broncos coach P.J. Fleck chided him for a couple of drops and said the performance could have better.He left a lot of meat on the bone as well, Fleck said. He could have had 340 or 350 yards.Still, Davis is a near-certainty to overtake Nevadas Trevor Insley (5,005 receiving yards from 1996-99) as the all-time leader with three regular-season games, the MAC title game and a bowl game left on Western Michigans docket.He leads the nation with 14 touchdown receptions, and his 47 career receiving scores are tied for the MAC record. He has caught 61 passes for 1,011 yards this season.Kent State (3-6, 2-3) is allowing 204.8 passing yards per game and will be aiming to slow Davis and a Western Michigan offense that ranks fifth nationally in scoring at 45.2 points per game.Each of the Golden Flashes three MAC losses came by four points. A major issue for Kent State has been the inability to hold on to fourth-quarter leads.You think about where you could be, Kent State coach Paul Haynes said. Its nothing to hang your head on. We are where we are. Its just making sure that we finish the right way.Kent State will be without a key defensive player, as senior free safety Nate Holley was suspended indefinitely after getting arraigned on a felony kidnapping charge. Holley has 111 tackles and ranks second nationally in tackles per game (12.3).The Golden Flashes defense will have to rely more on senior outside linebacker Terence Waugh, a stellar pass rusher who has eight sacks.Kent State has one of the best defenses we face all year, Fleck said. We have to be way better than we ever have. Weve got a lot of things to clean up, on all three phases.On offense, Kent State will be hard-matched to keep up with the Broncos if lots of points are being put on the board.Junior Nick Holley, the twin brother of Nate, was moved to quarterback after a flurry of early-season injuries. The former running back has passed for 668 yards and three touchdowns against two interceptions while rushing for 775 yards and nine scores.Only one player has more than 200 receiving yards for Kent State, true freshman running back Justin Rankin with 301.Western Michigans edge in firepower runs deeper than the electrifying Davis. Senior quarterback Zach Terrell and junior running back Jarvion Franklin are also enjoying big campaigns.Terrell has 2,362 passing yards and 23 touchdowns and with just one interception. He ranks third in MAC history in passing yardage (10,933) and ninth with 86 touchdown passes.Franklin ranks fifth in Western Michigan history with 3,306 rushing yards, and his 38 rushing scores are one behind school record-holder Jerome Persell (1976-78). He has rushed for 1,018 yards and nine touchdowns this season.Junior weak-side linebacker Robert Spillane leads the Broncos with 79 tackles for a unit allowing 19.3 points per game. Senior defensive end Keion Adams has a team-leading 5.5 sacks.Western Michigan, which leads the series 33-20-1, is entering uncharted territory as it seeks its first-ever double-digit campaign. Fleck and the players insist that they arent feeling any pressure.We just worry about the next game, junior tight end Donnie Ernsberger said. The target does become bigger. We embrace it. We face the facts and go in there and prepare for the next team.

Years of meticulous planning and traversing the globe winning back-to-back rugby sevens world series titles had coach Ben Ryan prepared for just about anything when he revealed his Fiji squad for the Olympics.One thing he couldnt guarantee was the reaction of the players who missed out, a response he now regards as the measure of the team.One by one, they came in and one by one I told them their fate and to a man they were outstanding in the way they took their news, Ryan recalled. If they werent selected they thanked us, they shook our hands and they left with their heads held high.It proved once and for all, in case there was even a tiny doubt in Ryans mind, that the squad hes been honing for Rio de Janeiro is way, way bigger than any individual -- this group of players is what Fijians everywhere refer to as the peoples team.And the people have high expectations. Fijians have competed in the Olympics since 1956, but have never won a medal. Theyve never had a chance until now, though, to contest their national sport at the Summer Games.It is fair to say, Fiji is close to meltdown with Rio fever, Ryan told World Rugby this week. It is always an obsession on the island to follow the team but has gone to a new level with the Olympics. Hundreds have lined the training pitch to watch us.Since moving from England in 2013, Ryan has harnessed the passion Fijians have for their kind of football, reinforcing the bonds between the game and the people in a Pacific island nation which has become too familiar with seeing its best rugby talent move abroad seeking opportunities.Despite never reaching the World Cup semifinals in the traditional 15-a-side game, Fijians have long been the masters of the abbreviated sevens version because of their size, speed and flair.So when rugby sevens was added to the Olympic program for Rio, the goal posts shifted and gold became the goal.Even former San Francisco 49ers player and Australian National Rugby League star Jarryd Hayne quit the NFL in a bid to make the Fijian team -- but he didnt give himself enough time to break in.The inspirational Osea Kolinisau will lead the mens team, after he has carried the Fiji flag at the opening ceremony for the Olympics.With 243 matches in the world series, the 30-year-old is right for the job. He topped the tackle count in the 2015-16 season and, when Fiji was still recoveringg from the devastating Cyclone Winston, Kolinisau dedicated the Las Vegas stop on the world series circuit in March to the people, delivering the title with a player-of-the-match performance in the final.

The following month in Hong Kong, the Fijians won again to all but secure the world championship.Winning the world series last season was a really massive one, Kolinisau said. When we went back home, our normal three-hour trip from the airport took us about 10 hours. Villagers wanting to thank the team for what theyve done.In Savenaca Rawaca, Jasa Veremalua, Kitione Taliga and Jerry Tuwai, Fiji had four players in the top 14 on the world series try-scoring list last season -- no other country had more than one. As well, theres France-based Josua the Fijian Bus Tuisova in a versatility role and forwards such as Leone Nakarawa to provide possession.Waisale Serevi, one of the greatest sevens exponents of all time, is a proud Fijian who knows what the OIympic team is facing.Theres nothing less than the gold medal that theyre looking for, Serevi told The Associated Press. They dont want the silver. They dont want the bronze. They want the gold medal back at home.The Fijian men open their campaign against host Brazil next Tuesday, followed by group matches Argentina and the United States.Ryan has an obligation to use a Fiji-style game plan, full of running from all parts of the field and risky passes, but is confident the extra fitness he has drilled into the squad and the extraordinary skills that can only be acquired by having a deep pool of players will ensure his team is consistently playing at a high level.We play the way that everybody wants the game to be played, he said. We keep the ball alive, we do have audacious off-loads, they play with a smile on their face.We play with a high risk -- but its only a risk if you make a mistake.Its a high-risk, high-reward mission for Ryan, who agrees the gold medal is the No. 1 priority.Theres not many sports around the globe that has such an impact to the whole nation, he said. The country does grind to a standstill when the boys are playing. There is pressure on the boys to perform, because those (fans) will also be pointing fingers if things dont work out.
