Contrary to poet T.S. Eliots contention that April is the cruelest month, Texas A&M has a somewhat different opinion.The Aggies will argue very strongly that based on recent history, it is October that has that dubious distinction.Consider for the last two seasons that the Aggies have gotten off to great starts -- 5-0 in 2014 and 4-0 in September last year, seemingly putting themselves in position to make runs at favored Alabama and others in the SECs West Division.But then came October, and the Aggies were shown not to be contenders but mere pretenders. They were 0-3 in October two years ago and 2-2 in the month in 2015.But coach Kevin Sumlin is hoping that the changes to his staff, which included Noel Mazzone replacing Jake Spavital as offensive coordinator, and the offseason program and approach by his players will make a difference this time around. The Aggies are once again 4-0 -- including two SEC wins -- as they kick off October on Saturday with a date against South Carolina at 4 p.m. ET (SEC Network) in Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia.We made some drastic changes throughout the program, Sumlin said. We made some subtle changes throughout the program. Does that guarantee that things are going to change? No. Because performance guarantees change.Well, so far, performances have been pretty good. The Aggies have thrived with Oklahoma transfer Trevor Knight at quarterback and freshman running back Trayveon Williams emerging as the teams leading rusher.Williams has rushed for 389 yards, 84 more than Knight, and has gone for 280 yards in the last two outings against Auburn and Arkansas. He had 153 yards in the 45-24 win over Arkansas as the Aggies broke the game open in the second half.Explosive is the word Sumlin uses to describe the running back who came out of Houstons C.E. King High and enrolled at Texas A&M in January after originally committing to TCU.He did a lot for C.E. King, Sumlin said. They had him all over the place. Hes a guy that was always explosive. He was a little bit thinner, really a different build -- kind of high-split, long-legged guy, but had great hands. A guy we fortunately got flipped.Though the status of defensive end Myles Garrett and receiver Ricky Seals-Jones remains somewhat in doubt because of injuries that Sumlin refuses to discuss, the Aggies figure to have their way against a South Carolina team that is struggling offensively. The Gamecocks will put one of the nations lowest scoring offenses up against what is statistically a Top 20 defense for the Aggies.Coach Will Muschamps Gamecocks (2-2, 1-1) saw their scoring output drop to an average of 14.3 points per game with their 17-10 loss to Kentucky last week. Only Florida International scores less with its 13.5 average.The Aggies, meanwhile, are holding their opponents to 16.0 points a game, good for a tie for 18th with Army among FBS teams.With freshman Brandon McIlwain starting at quarterback, no ground game to speak of, and their most experienced receiver, sophomore Deebo Samuel, sidelined by a hamstring problem, its easy to see why the Gamecocks are struggling getting points.They were shut out in the first half before rallying to beat Vanderbilt 13-10 in their opener, got two touchdowns in the second half of a 27-14 loss at Mississippi State, and scored a season-high in a 20-15 win over East Carolina before their loss at Kentucky.Just disappointed with the lack of execution offensively and defensively just not playing blocks, Muschamp said after the loss to the Wildcats. Well continue to work and continue to improve. Weve got a young group.Its frustrating in the passing game because of the lack of continuity.But Sumlin has respect for the Gamecocks defense, which ranks fifth in the SEC behind Florida, Alabama, Texas A&M, and LSU in scoring defense in allowing just 17.3 points a gameDefensively theyre always going to be good, he said. Theyre still trying to get an identity offensively, but defensively, theres never been a Will Muschamp team that hasnt been salty. Nike Air Max 1 Australia .

LOS ANGELES -- The growth spurt of the youthful Los Angeles Lakers has sprung faster than expected.I came into this job with an open mind, Lakers first-year coach Luke Walton said Sunday, according to the Los Angeles Times, after his club recorded a 119-108 victory over the Phoenix Suns. They havent shown me anything to say that theyre immature other than the age of a lot of them. Theyve come to work every single day since weve been here, even before training camp. Their actions speak loud. Theyre grown men that are in this to get better and to be as good as they can.The Lakers will go for their fourth consecutive win when the Dallas Mavericks visit Staples Center on Tuesday.By beating the Suns, the Lakers (4-3) captured their third straight win for the first time since the 2012-13 season. They also are above the .500 mark after seven games since the Lakers started the 2011-12 campaign with an identical record.The win over the Suns followed a stunning 20-point rout of the Golden State Warriors on Friday and a surprising road decision over the Atlanta Hawks last Wednesday.Against Phoenix, the Lakers got valuable contributions from several players, with six scoring in double figures, but none were more notable than Nick Young, who finished with 22 points and seven rebounds. Young spent much of last season on the bench, being a frequent target of the hard-line ways of former Lakers coach Byron Scott.Los Angeles is 3-0 at home.We won 17 games last year, said forward Larry Nance Jr., according to the Times.dddddddddddd Nance wont play against the Mavericks after suffering a concussion in the first half against the Suns. What are we, 4-3? Thats not enough success to get to anybodys head at this point. Were all still hungry and humble and really excited to keep going.The Mavericks, who won their first game of the season Sunday night against the Milwaukee Bucks, are hoping to extend their 10-game winning streak over the Lakers, taking the last five at Staples. However, they will have to do so without Dirk Nowitzki, who wont play because of a sore Achilles. The 38-year-old Nowitzki hasnt been available since missing the second half of a 105-95 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday.Dallas also might be without point guard Deron Williams (strained left calf), who is listed as doubtful for the Lakers game.Despite the pairs absences against the Bucks, the Mavericks (1-5) snapped a five-game skid behind a career-best 34 points from Harrison Barnes in an 86-75 overtime win.This was just a case of outlasting an opponent, said Dallas coach Rick Carlisle, according to the Ft. Worth Star-Telegram. On defense, we were great. You look at the whole game and we had a plan -- we got down early -- but we stuck with it.We made these guys beat us in the half-court game and these games can be ugly. But in our situation right now, its what we have to do to win games. ' ' '
