No. 16 USC | No. 18 Georgia | Top 25No. 17: UCLALast Season: 8-5?(5-4 Pac-12 South)The Bruins defense, which played most of 2015 without its three best players, welcomes back nine starters, including LB Jayon Brown and DT Eddie Vanderdoes, who was injured for much of the season. Only four starters return on offense, but one of those is extremely talented QB Josh Rosen (3,668 yards in 15). And the Bruins schedule is on their side: They avoid Washington and Oregon and have just four Pac-12 road games -- three of them against teams with losing records in conference play last year. Dont be surprised when they win the Pac-12 South this season.UCLAs chances to win each game 09.03 @Texas A&M: 39.4% 09.10 vs. UNLV: 97.1% 09.17 @ BYU: 71.3% 09.24 vs. Stanford: 67.6% 10.01 vs. Arizona: 76.9% 10.08 @ Arizona State:?73.1% 10.15 @ Washington State:?65.1% 10.22 vs. Utah: 80.4% 11.03 @ Colorado: 77.1% 11.12 vs. Oregon State: 93.5% 11.19 @ USC: 52.2% 11.26 @ Cal: 71.8%With a deep, experienced defense and arguably the countrys most talented quarterback, UCLA is a real threat to go 10-2 in the regular season and win its first conference title since 1998. -- Kyle BonaguraThe only real question surrounding the Bruins is who will step up to support quarterback Josh Rosen? The defense is solid, the offensive line should be steady and head coach Jim Mora is 16-4 against the Pac-12 South since 2012. A minimum of 9-3 should be expected for a team with this kind of potential. -- Kevin GemmellJosh Rosen will lead the Bruins to a 9-3 season but expect plenty of new names and faces to appear as Mora looks for his playmakers around his quarterback (as well as plenty of quote-worthy moments from the sophomore QB). -- Chantel JenningsIf the Bruins can tighten up their run defense in Year 2 of the Rosen era, they should be considered favorites to win the Pac-12 South. Their secondary was already solid last season, and the return of defensive lineman Eddie Vanderdoes from injury can help UCLA to a 9-3 finish atop the South. -- David LombardiThe Bruins are the favorites in the South Division in large part because they have the nations most talented quarterback in Rosen, a true sophomore. But they also have an outstanding secondary, good running backs and a scattering of A-list linemen, which makes a 9-3 record a good start for an over-under. -- Ted MillerNo. 16 USC | No. 18 Georgia | Top 25 Cheap Air Max 97 Green China .J. -- Josh Cribbs was in the Pro Bowl in February and out of a job six months later.

The teams, and a few thousand fans, waited nearly four hours from the 7:05 scheduled start time before an announcement was made shortly before 11 p. HOUSTON -- Given the lack of drama in the second half, it was easy to chuckle at how the Rockets fumbled away an opportunity to set an NBA single-game record for 3-pointers on Wednesday night in their blowout win over the Sacramento Kings.The Rockets (19-7) won their eighth consecutive game by, in part, sinking 22 3-pointers in their 34-point victory. Houston shares the NBA record of 23 with the Golden State Warriors, and after rookie forward Kyle Wiltjer nailed a 3 with 3:55 left, the Rockets were one away from that mark. They closed the game by taking six of their final seven shots inside the arc to squander their shot at a new league mark.But the bigger picture is this: Houston has hit at least 20 3-pointers in a game twice this season after having done so only twice previously in franchise history. Second-year forward Sam Dekker expressed confidence that this group will get another shot at the record this season, and with four Rockets ranked in the top 11 league-wide in 3-pointers, Dekker has every reason to forecast another record run.Each person has their job on this team. Its a specific group thats really put together well, said Rockets forward Ryan Anderson, whose 65 treys rank 11th in the NBA and fourth on the team behind Eric Gordon (93), James Harden (76) and Trevor Ariza (70). And everybody accepts their role here. There are rare teams where everybody comes together as a cohesive unit rather than trying to play too much one-on-one or look out for themselves. And its fun. Its an unselfish style of basketball.The Rockets, who will host the New Orleans Pelicans (9-18) on Friday night at Toyota Centter, did get a bit of bad news with the announcement that forward Donatas Motiejunas rights were renounced and that he was an unrestricted free agent.dddddddddddd Motiejunas and the Rockets had been in a prolonged stalemate regarding his contract status and his health. The resolution reached may ultimately hurt the team.The Pelicans, meanwhile, snapped a 10-game losing skid against the Indiana Pacers with their 102-95 home win on Thursday night. All-Star forward Anthony Davis posted his seventh 35-point, 15-rebound game this season with 35 points and 16 boards while rookie guard Buddy Hield scored a career-high 21 points.Perhaps the biggest positive for the Pelicans was the return of swingman Tyreke Evans, who played in his first game in 11 months after being sidelined by multiple right knee surgeries and a blood clot in his calf. His previous appearance was Jan. 25.Evans finished with seven points, three rebounds and two assists in 11 minutes. With Evans and guard Jrue Holiday, who missed the first 12 games of the season, back in the fold, the Pelicans are inching closer to finally being whole again.Getting out there running with my teammates in an actual game was exciting for me, Evans said. Ive been doing practices ... but its definitely different in a game.The first couple of minutes I just wanted to get out there and catch a feel for the game and get my feet wet. When I hit that 3 (with 9:29 remaining in the fourth quarter) and that Euro step, I felt like I was ready to go. ' ' '
