Inventory down

The Georgia line of defense was gouged too typically, and decrease physique accidents to beginning defensive tackles Warren Brinson, Nazir Stackhouse and Mykel Williams (ankle) are trigger for concern. Georgia catches a break with Tennessee Tech subsequent on the schedule, giving the three starters every week off, if wanted.

Farsley Celtic Ladies kick began their 2024/25 season with a return to FA Cup motion after 3 years away. Drawn towards Sheffield United Group Ladies within the first qualifying spherical, the sport came about at Amaranth FC as a result of work on the pitch on the Citadel and it was a robust squad named by Izzy Roads and Connor Cowan that includes two debutants and loads of expertise from final season’s promotion successful marketing campaign.

The early moments of the sport have been pretty balanced as each groups labored their manner into the sport with Sheffield United Group really getting one of the best likelihood with an effort that was flashed throughout the face of aim.

This appeared to kick Farsley into motion and so they quickly discovered themselves getting quite a lot of success with through-balls to wingers Shirley Murphy and Georgia Bull permitting them to get in behind the Sheffield defence on plenty of events and it was Georgia Bull who continued her tremendous scoring type from preseason by opening the scoring from shut vary after some good work by Murphy on the wing.

36 minutes in and we had one other aim, this time scored by Emma Elliott on her aggressive debut for the membership. Taking the ball down together with her head, she lashed a volley on course and it discovered its manner in to double the lead. Scoring her first aim undoubtedly gave her confidence and there will likely be loads to see from our new striker over the approaching season.

With a 2-0 lead on the break there was no want for any main modifications and it was a case of choosing up the place they left off within the second half as Shirley Murphy scored her compulsory aim on 55 minutes, curling one over the goalkeeper from the nook of the penalty field with a beautiful strike.

Two minutes later we have been celebrating once more as Georgia Bull bought up unmarked to bury a header previous the keeper after Lauren Rigby’s nook was completely positioned for her. Bull was clearly happy with the trouble and even Sheffield United Group pulling one again a couple of minutes later couldn’t dampen her spirit as on the 78th minute Bull scored our closing aim of the day to finish her good hat-trick, the primary she had scored for the membership to substantiate our place within the second qualifying spherical with a 5-1 assertion victory.

COACH ELKO: First off, hats off to Notre Dame. They got here in right here and so they beat us. There was actually no two methods round it.
 
To the Aggie followers, I thanks. Thanks for displaying up tonight. Thanks for making this a extremely special occasion. You deserved higher, and we did not give it to you. So we’ll return to work, and we’ll proceed to drive this factor to turn into the product that you simply guys need this and deserve for this program to be. 
 
When it comes to the sport, we misplaced the turnover battle 2-0. That is not going to result in loads of profitable video games. We had some actually essential penalties within the first half that I assumed ended some drives after we had some issues going within the second half. Within the third quarter, we actually struggled to get into rhythm on offense. We put the one drive collectively to tie it and actually simply might by no means go on the market and get issues going constantly. After which defensively, I assumed the best way we defended the run was actually poor. We gave up virtually 200 yards speeding. You are not going to win soccer video games on this convention doing that. So we’ll determine find out how to repair it and get higher.
 
So from there, questions.
 
Q. I heard you say through the sport that Conner [Weigman] wanted to calm down. What does he want do shifting ahead after tonight?
 
COACH ELKO: Yeah. I simply assume we have got to return to the tape, and we have got to determine find out how to put him in higher conditions to get him comfy.
 
, the problem tonight was they had been going to play us in man all evening. So there’s not loads of easy accessibility throws to get him comfy and get him in rhythm. Persons are going to must win to try this, and we simply weren’t capable of get it going.
 
It appeared like whether or not it was him lacking — you realize, we had an opportunity to hit Noah [Thomas] on the large over route and type of overshot him by slightly bit and obtained the decide or guys not getting the separation that we wanted to get.
 
A method or one other, we simply weren’t capable of get it finished. We tried to do some various things to create some rubs and picks, and that did not get it going.
 
Yeah, it was actually, actually exhausting as a result of he was not in rhythm, and there was nothing straightforward to get. And so we saved making an attempt, we saved making an attempt, we simply could not get there.
 
Q. Yeah, Mike [Elko], you spoke concerning the run protection. Off the highest of your head, good off the sphere, do you’ve gotten any ideas, any theories what the issue was and particularly on that next-to-last scoring drive from Notre Dame went 85 yards?
 
COACH ELKO: Yeah, it was a litany of issues. I assumed we might have finished a greater job up entrance controlling the road of scrimmage for certain. We missed-fit some issues. I feel that created a few of the giant runs. There was some crack-replace conditions the place we did not present up the best way we wanted to. After which on the 2 lengthy runs, we simply missed tackles and missed tackles.
 
On the primary landing, they obtained him to 13. I feel we missed three tackles with guys that had been proper there and will have downed the soccer. We did not get it finished.
 
After which on the final one, we missed the deal with within the gap, and the child scored it via as a result of we had been in zero, making an attempt to promote out to cease the run there. So there wasn’t a lot protection behind the primary line.
 
Q. Mike, what did you consider your offensive line and the way it held up towards Notre Dame’s defensive entrance?
 
COACH ELKO: It did not really feel just like the pocket was soiled. It felt like we had time to throw. It felt like we had been capable of get slightly bit going within the run sport, not a ton, however we had been capable of get slightly bit going within the run sport. It definitely felt like that was slightly bit extra impartial than it was them having the whole higher hand.
 
Q. Understanding you wanted to attain a landing on the finish of the sport, did you are feeling such as you wanted to be in passing conditions although you had all three timeouts?
 
COACH ELKO: Properly, we ran it on the second and ten to get it to fourth and two. After which on fourth and two, we referred to as the play that we thought was one of the best play to get us the primary down.
 
We definitely felt like popping out within the drive, we needed to get going with the throw sport. Once more, on the third and ten, we did run it. We obtained it to eight, obtained it all the way down to fourth and two. We felt just like the fourth and two was the easiest way to get us the 2 yards, and we simply did not get it finished.
 
Q. Within the second half, the little heavier rotation of vast receivers, how a lot of that was your plan? How a lot of it was looking for a man who would possibly might get the separation?
 
COACH ELKO: Most likely slightly little bit of each. Because it began to go on and the warmth and mugginess on the market, and also you need to simply preserve guys contemporary. Once more, you are attempting to search out the rhythm of who might get on the market the separation that we have to get the factor gone.
 
Q. The ESPN cameras caught Conner [Weigman] getting sick. Was that only a matter of the circumstances exterior, or one thing you introduced in —
 
COACH ELKO: Yeah, that was him. Within the warmth of the second, he obtained slightly bit sick and puking rally.
 
Q. Coach, how was going through Riley [Leonard] once more? And the way did his speeding potential have an effect on you on the protection?
 
COACH ELKO: Yeah. It wasn’t enjoyable. I knew it would not be. He made a bunch of big-time performs. He made a play on the third and 5. He made some runs on the final drive. He did what he did and made sufficient performs to win the soccer sport. I advised him I liked him after the sport. I will probably be rooting for that child for the remainder of his life.
 
Q. What did you see from Le’Veon Moss tonight? And what are your exceptions of him shifting ahead?
 
COACH ELKO: Once more, it was going to be a difficult evening working the soccer. There was going to be seven individuals within the field just about each single snap.
 
So, I assumed, for probably the most half, he pushed the pile ahead. I assumed he ran exhausting. We’ll have to determine find out how to get him slightly bit more room to get him going slightly bit higher.
 
I assumed, for probably the most half, he did what we requested him to do. 
 
Q. Coach [Mike Elko], defensively, y’all had been actually good on third down for a lot of the evening — for the entire evening, two for 12. However they did have a few drives. They weren’t essentially third downs, particularly the primary and 25 popping out of the outlet. What did you see they had been capable of do within the fantastic moments to make these performs after they hadn’t essentially been having that success all through the evening?
 
COACH ELKO: We had been actually, actually unhealthy off schedule tonight on protection. Second and eight to second and ten. After we return and watch the movie, I feel it is going to be one of many worst down-and-distances of the evening.
 
I feel we have got to have a look at what we’re doing. Now we have to have a look at how we’re difficult throws. I feel we obtained actually comfortable in our protection in these down-and-distance.
 
, virtually like we type of obtained on our heels slightly bit as a result of we gained first down, and that is the precise reverse of what it’s best to do. Once more, we had been conscious of it. We had been making an attempt to get it mounted and corrected. We simply could not get it finished.
 
However in the end on the finish of the day, we had the third and 5 backed up and had an opportunity to make a play to get off the sphere and did not do it. On the finish of the day, that is the turning level within the sport.
 
We have them third and 5 on the 20-yard line, and we do not get them off the sphere. I feel if we get them off the sphere there, they’re punting to us, and we have got the ball with an opportunity to go down and win it. We do not make the play. After which impulsively, they get some runs going, they get some rhythm, the child makes an important catch on their sideline. The subsequent factor you realize, they’re lining up in field-goal vary and they also hit the run.
 
Q. Mike [Elko], going again to Conner [Weigman] getting comfy, how a lot of that do you attribute to, such as you mentioned, receivers not getting the win? However, additionally, is there a few of that attributing to first reside sport in a brand new system and getting acclimated to it?
 
COACH ELKO: I am certain it is all of it. While you go have a look at it, it is going to be the performs that we referred to as and ensuring we’re doing the fitting issues to get children in the fitting spots to achieve success. It is going to be Conner delivering the ball in the fitting spots on time. It is going to be receivers creating separation. It is occurring the O-line defending. There’s going to be a breakdown on each play that in the end results in the success that you simply’re not having.
 
What I advised the fellows within the locker room is for us to get this program over the hump, we’ll must discover ways to put ourselves in place to play the sport the best way we have to in these moments, and we simply did not do this.
 

 
Q. Trey, it seemed such as you guys had been capable of get some push and slightly momentum at occasions. What had been they doing that prevented you guys from constantly getting the ball down the sphere?
 
TREY ZUHN, III: I do not assume it was something they did. I feel it was ourselves. We beat ourselves. We weren’t constant mentally and bodily. So we have simply obtained stuff to wash up to ensure we’re the identical group each single down.
 
Q. You guys actually dedicated to the run on that landing drive. What was actually working for you guys? And the way did you are feeling the run sport was going?
 
TREY ZUHN, III: I simply assume we had been centered, and we had been straining as exhausting as we might. And we purchased into, hey, we’ll get this in the long run zone. And we simply want to try this each single drive. Did not execute it on the opposite drives.
 
Q. Trey, what do you are feeling like the largest takeaway was from an opener like this that you simply guys are going to study from shifting ahead?
 
TREY ZUHN, III: , I feel that was group. Scoreboard confirmed they had been the higher group. However I do not assume they had been the higher group. I feel we beat ourselves.
 
We realized that we’ve got glimpses the place we’re a extremely good soccer group. However we have to discover ways to focus and pressure each single play, each single down, each single drive to achieve success. 
 
Q. Coach (Mike Elko) talked about he felt just like the followers deserved slightly bit extra from tonight. Does that add slightly bit extra sting to the locker room? Is that type of the way you felt?
 
TREY ZUHN, III: Proper. It stings. It stings unhealthy. However we’re protecting our heads up. Now we have loads of soccer this season. It is time to get to work tomorrow.
 
Q. Trey, you talked about — I do know you guys weren’t capable of constantly carry out on the degree y’all need to. Nevertheless it did look like y’all had been capable of preserve them from simply utterly having a heyday defensively.
 
Is that what kind of provides y’all perception into the truth that this was extra us beating ourselves? It isn’t like they had been ending eight, 9 sacks and simply manhandling us?
 
TREY ZUHN, III: Yeah, proper. Undoubtedly. It was all on us. We simply beat ourselves. There’s actually nothing else to it.
 
 
Q. Simply out of your perspective, what was Conner [Weigman]’s demeanor all through the sport? Had a troublesome evening. What did you say to him as a group captain?
 
TREY ZUHN, III: , issues weren’t going nice the entire time. I simply mentioned, hey, preserve your head up. Preserve throwing the ball. Preserve being assured.
 
He is an important participant, and he’ll take us to nice locations this season. I feel he did an important job staying composed all through the entire sport. I am unable to wait to see what he does the remainder of the season.
 

Q. Hey, Taurean. While you have a look at what occurred within the run sport, particularly as the sport went on, they began to get chunks of yardage. The place had been the breakdowns, in your opinion?
 
TAUREAN YORK: I really feel just like the breakdown was me. I missed the deal with on the lengthy landing. And naturally, I do know they ran for 200 yards. I might most likely say three quarters of that was within the second half. So we obtained to lock in additional. I really feel prefer it’s on me on the finish of the day. I’ve to get these guys proper.
 
Q. As they had been actually marching down the sphere on the final landing drive, what had been you simply telling your guys on the market to attempt to cease the bleeding?
 
TAUREAN YORK: Now we have to get a cease. They had been making an attempt to run the four-man drill. And we’re making an attempt to bleed the clock down as a lot as we did. And we see that is why they ran the clock all the best way all the way down to the two-minute warning. Now we have to get a cease, get off the sphere.
 
Q. Regardless that y’all had been doing rather well on third down. It appeared like each time a predictable passing state of affairs and possibly the group anticipating a sack, revving up, even when y’all obtained off the sphere after a brief acquire, y’all had been having bother getting a giant splash play and placing these collectively. It appeared like that was a part of some frustration towards the second half because it constructed up. How did y’all attempt to cope with that?
 
TAUREAN YORK: We misplaced the turnover battle 2-0. And our primary key to victory is to win the turnover margin, and we misplaced that tonight. So the offense is its personal separate deal. I’ve my religion in Conner Weigman, after all, however our protection, we obtained to get turnovers. Now we have to power it. The ball is the sport, in the end, we did not get the ball out tonight.
 
Q. Simply type of speaking about getting stress on the quarterback, not loads of stress on Riley Leonard tonight. How do you guys type of go about fixing that and simply getting extra penetration, I suppose, into the backfield like that?
 
TAUREAN YORK: Clearly, affecting the quarterback is a giant key to affecting the sport in the end. You noticed final 12 months we misplaced our quarterback and the trajectory of how our season went. So if we are able to have an effect on the quarterback, we felt we’d be in good palms.
We needed to make the most of clearly — what was it — six profession begins. We simply did not do this tonight. We simply obtained to get again to the chalkboard and prepare for McNeese [State].
 
Q. Taurean, what did you are feeling such as you realized about your group on this season opener?
 
TAUREAN YORK: We obtained the battle. We obtained to battle. The important thing to victory is within the fourth quarter.  We misplaced that in the end.
 
I take pleasure within the protection as nicely. So for them working 198 yards, that is no bueno. It begins with me, so it is going to be mounted.
 
Q. Taurean, as a frontrunner of this locker room, what do you say to your guys to type of compartmentalize this one, put it up to now and transfer on to McNeese [State]?
 
TAUREAN YORK: I imply, it is already over. You are going to kill your self all week if you consider it, attempt to beat your self up about it. So, after all, we’ll be our largest critics, after all. Sunday, we’ll watch the movie, prepare for McNeese.
 
However, I imply, the sport is over with, and we simply obtained to get our focus proper for Saturday.
 
Q. Taurean, are you able to speak slightly bit about what communication was like not simply between you and your teammates but in addition what it was like utilizing the in-helmet communication, the way you felt that labored tonight?
 
TAUREAN YORK: I prefer it. I prefer it rather a lot. It was loud on each play as a result of we’re at Kyle Subject and twelfth Man confirmed up.
 
I imply, I am unhappy that we could not get them the victory tonight as a result of they confirmed up and so they confirmed out all week. After all, you noticed the ticket pool line. So I hate to allow them to down, but it surely’s a part of the sport. So simply obtained to get again prepared for subsequent week.
 
Q. Simply as a group, as an entire, did this really feel like a chance misplaced?
 
TAUREAN YORK: Alternative misplaced? I imply, yeah, you are on a giant stage. You could have all people on this planet coming to observe this sport. All people world wide might be watching this sport tonight. And also you hate to lose it. But when our season goes how we expect it’ll go, we’ll be again on the stage. And I’ve all the religion within the Texas A&M Aggies to be again on the stage.
 
Q. Taurean, y’all held Notre Dame to 65 yards speeding within the first half however then gave up 133 within the second. Do you assume they made an adjustment, or was it one thing else that had that occur?
 
 
TAUREAN YORK: Lack of focus, and it begins with me. And I will proceed to harp on that, that it begins with me on the finish of the day.
 
I imply — what was it — a 50-yard landing run due to a missed deal with on my finish. So I am in the end going to take the blame. You swing large; you miss large. However it’s what it’s. You have to transfer on.  

Have you ever ever checked out a drain cowl and puzzled what the numbers on it are for? No, can’t say I’ve both. So it’s simply as nicely that we’ve got crime writers of the calibre of Peter James foraging into the murkier corners of their imaginations to give you plots designed to pique our curiosity. 

Lifting the lid on a long-hidden drain cowl – time to carry these noses now – proved pivotal as his Brighton-based detective returned in Grace (ITV1) for a fourth collection of crime-cracking tales tailored for Sunday nights. Reporting for obligation someplace between Vera’s earthiness and Endeavour’s cerebral introversion, Roy Grace could be just about your customary subject cop had been it not for the lurking shadow of his mysteriously lacking spouse. However extra of her later. 

The suspicion lingers that if it wasn’t for John Simm holding issues collectively on the coronary heart of the motion, Grace would fairly shortly dissolve into customary cop drama cliché. As it’s, Simm brings Grace believably to life, creating that uncommon TV beast, a genuinely likeable, largely quirk-free detective who by no means craves our favour. 

In order Grace picked his method by the criss-crossing plot strains of Useless Man’s Time, a considerably convoluted story that dipped its toes considerably shallowly into the murky waters of Daddy points, you had been rooting for him to deliver the baddies to ebook and get again to his freshly solid home bliss with a brand new, pregnant associate. Right here’s a man, you suppose, who deserves a shot at happiness. However happiness doesn’t sit simply in this type of territory. 

Useless Man’s Time flashbacked us by a household historical past suffering from lies and deception, lapsing into cod philosophy as predominant participant Gavin Daly (Robert Glenister, giving it the complete self-made geezer) found his lifelong adulation of his lacking father was constructed on a mirage. “You had been defending the reminiscence of a person who by no means existed,” supplied Grace by the use of signing off a narrative that by no means fairly added as much as the sum of its components. However that wasn’t the tip of it, I did promise extra on the lacking spouse. 

The loosest of unfastened threads that has stitched the standalone tales of Grace collectively, finally we obtained fleeting glimpses of the elusive Sandy (Clare Calbraith, quickly to be seen in A Very Royal Scandal, Amazon’s spin on the Prince Andrew interview) as she hovered within the background with an anguished look on her face. What’s she as much as, that’s the burning query. Till that lid is lifted, I’m hooked.

The strongest storyline going into Notre Dame’s sport in opposition to the Texas A&M Aggies was that it was going to be a defensive battle all through the night time. For essentially the most half… that storyline was correct.

You may as well add poor passing by each groups and numerous penalties — particularly by the Irish.

Texas A&M acquired issues began on the primary drive and moved slowly down discipline due to a few offsides jumps by the Irish defensive position. Notre Dame was capable of maintain the Aggies to a discipline aim, and the Notre Dame offense answered with a discipline aim drive of its personal.

After a minute of play within the second quarter, the Aggies kicked in one other discipline aim to take a 6-3 lead.
