STILLWATER, Okla. Brian Dawkins Womens Jersey . -- The players at No. 13 Oklahoma State know one thing: They dont have to look for help to wrap up a special season.After escaping with a 45-44 victory over Texas Tech over the weekend, the Cowboys needs to win Saturday at TCU to set up a Bedlam showdown with No. 8 Oklahoma on Dec. 3 for the Big 12 championship.The Cowboys (8-2, 6-1 Big 12) know that they need to focus on the next game and not look ahead to the looming contest with their intra-state rivals, especially on the road against a strong opponent in TCU (5-4, 3-3). The Horned Frogs are coming off a bye week that followed a dominating 62-22 win on Nov. 5 over then-No. 17 Baylor, the only Big 12 team that has beaten Oklahoma State (35-24 back on Sept. 24).Each week I talk to them about the importance of focus, and fortunately, weve had big wins, and whether you have a big win or you have a loss youre not happy with, you have to re-focus on Sunday, said Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy. Were not good enough to even look past tomorrows practice, and TCU, in my opinion, is a considerably different team than they were even three weeks ago.The players appear to be buying into the notion that they cannot look past TCU.It is hard, but right now, we just focus on TCU and well be ready for Bedlam next week, said defensive tackle Vincent Taylor, who is tied for sixth in the Big 12 in both sacks (5.5) and tackles for loss (9.0). Dont watch ESPN, the AP polls, the college polls and all that, stay off of Twitter. Its hard, but to be focused, thats what you have to do.With the Sooners ranked eighth, West Virginia No. 10 and the Cowboys at No. 13, there is a lot of speculation that no matter who emerges as the Big 12 champion, they will be shut out of the College Football Playoff.I cant control that, said junior quarterback Mason Rudolph, who ranks fifth in the nation with 3,384 passing yards and is 12th with 24 touchdown tosses. We control our own destiny and regardless of our ranking, we know whats at stake and what we can accomplish, so were really trying to block that out and look forward.Gundy actually considers his team 9-1, discounting the Cowboys controversial 30-27 defeat to Central Michigan back on Sept. 10, when the Chippewas scored a touchdown on a Hail Mary pass during a final, untimed play that officials later admitted should never have been awarded.Nobody will ever convince me we lost that game, Gundy said.Gundy still has faith that the committee would alter its perception of the result based on how the game ended, but also acknowledged he doesnt have the stomach to engage in the type of politicking that might be necessary to get his team into the playoff if it should win the next two games.When you get into administrative politics, Id just as soon jump off a building than deal with people like that, Gundy said. I havent thought about it a lot because we have to play these next two games. And at that point, somebody can make a decision on that. Theyre supposed to be deciding on who they think the best teams are -- thats what they say, right? I mean, I never watch the show. Id rather watch `SpongeBob than watch or listen to his comments, to be honest with you. Dennis Smith Womens Jersey . President of baseball operations Larry Beinfest was fired Friday after 12 years with the Marlins. The move came as the team neared the end of its third consecutive last-place season in the NL East. Steve Atwater Jersey . Kozun faked to the forehand and beat Monsters starter, Calvin Pickard, pad side in the second round for the winner. Spencer Abbott also scored in the shootout for the Marlies (25-13-4). http://www.broncosrookiestore.com/Broncos-Karl-Mecklenburg-Jersey/ . -- The proud fathers huddled near the Dallas Stars dressing room, smiling, laughing and telling stories while wearing replica green sweaters of their sons team.We asked Soccer Saturday pundit Charlie Nicholas to pick his best combined XI from Manchester Uniteds and Leicester Citys squads ahead of their potential title decider on Super Sunday. The Foxes can wrap up the most unlikely of title triumphs with a victory at Old Trafford, live on Sky Sports 1HD, while United will be looking to boost their top-four hopes.Sundays showdown is also the selected as Sky Sports Fantasy Six-a-Side fixture, with £10,000 up for grabs to the highest scoring entrant of the free-to-play game. Heres who Charlie rates as the best XI for the crucial clash…GOALKEEPER - David de Gea David De Gea is at a different level to Kasper Schmeichel, says Charlie Kasper Schmeichel has been absolutely fantastic and his father must be tremendously proud. All successful teams have a top goalkeeper and hes proven to be just that.However, De Gea is just at a different level. I remember playing with Pat Jennings, who I called god, he just had everything as one of the first goalkeepers to save with his legs.DEFENCE - Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Wes Morgan, Robert Huth, Christian Fuchs Wes Morgans partnership with Robert Huth has been crucial for Leicester Danny Simpson has done well and is vastly improved but hes edged out by my one United defender. Ive gone for Fosu-Mensah, who every time I see him I wonder how he hasnt been in the team all season. This kid is going to be a superstar.The United defence has been pretty solid and Daley Blind has done better than we expected while Chris Smalling has had an okay season. However, Morgan and Huth know how to do their job so well and theyre also a threat from set-pieces.At left-back Ive gone for Fuchs. Hes a calm and cool defender who keeps everything simplee and is a very efficient. John Elway Jersey. Every time I see him I wonder how he hasnt been in the team all season. This kid is going to be a superstar. Charlie Nicholas on Timothy Fosu-Mensah MIDFIELD - Danny Drinkwater, NGolo Kante, Michael CarrickThis midfield obviously doesnt have many goals in it but it provides the platform for the front three to deliver.Danny Drinkwater and NGolo Kante have been fantastic as a pair, with Drinkwater spraying passes all over the park while Kante charges around. Kante isnt a holding midfielder for me. Everyone compares him to Claude Makelele but hes a better player and he passes forward whenever possible.Ive always been a big Michael Carrick fan and Id have him holding and letting the other two do their work.FORWARDS - Riyad Mahrez, Jamie Vardy, Anthony Martial Anthony Martial has pace, power and is a decent finisher Mahrez is probably the first name on my team sheet. Who would be competing against him? Jesse Lingard? Juan Mata? Mata is a great little player but I dont think Uniteds style suits him.Then Vardy goes in as my central striker. Marcus Rashford hasnt been in the team long enough but he does look like a potential superstar.Martial completes my line-up. He has scored big goals and looks a great signing. Hes got pace, power and is a decent finisher.Think you can pick a better eam than Charlie? Pick your Fantasy Six-a-Side team for Manchester United v Leicester City here.
