NEW YORK -- The non-stop nature of soccer helped and hindered NBCs Arlo White and Kate Markgraf in their coverage of the U. Mo Williams Cavaliers Jersey .S. womens team, which lost to Sweden on penalty kicks and was bounced from the Olympics.The USA are distraught, White said, describing the aftermath of Lisa Dahlkvists deciding penalty.He expertly built the tension throughout the broadcast and reflected the significance of the three-time defending Olympic champions and defending World Cup winners heading home without a medal. White and Markgraf even caught a bit of soccer gamesmanship before the last penalty kick, when U.S. goalkeeper Hope Solo changed gloves to make Dahlkvist wait a little while and think about her shot.There were two huge moments right before the penalty kicks when the Americans and then the Swedes had goals disallowed by the referee on what appeared to be questionable offside calls.Asked to take a stand on Lotta Schelins disallowed goal for Sweden, Markgraf hedged. The refs call appeared wrong, she said, but I do need to take another look at the play.She never got that chance. The soccer clock keeps ticking. When the extra time period ended shortly thereafter, NBC switched to a round of commercials and the controversial calls were not re-examined. Contrast that to an American football game, when theres enough downtime after a close call to see about a dozen replays.RATINGS: NBCs Thursday prime time, which featured gold-medal performances from American gymnast Simone Biles, swimmer Simone Manuel and, of course, Michael Phelps, reached 31.2 million, the Nielsen company said. That was the second highest viewership of the Rio de Janeiro Games so far, and ticked up to 33 million when online streaming and NBCSNs prime-time telecast are added in. NBC still hasnt topped its record-setting London Games from 2012, however, which had 36.8 million for the corresponding night.---Follow David Bauder at twitter.com/dbauder.

"Hes going to have hip surgery on Jan. 7, and hell be expected to rehabilitate for four to six months beyond that," Canucks general manager Mike Gillis said Friday in an interview. BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- The Indiana Hoosiers spent the first eight games taking expert care of the football.Now, suddenly, they cant seem to get a grip on it.Over the past two weeks, the Hosiers have fumbled nine times, losing all five Saturday to fuel Penn States rally from a 10-point, third-quarter deficit for a 45-31 victory. The slide from being one of the nations best in turnover margin to second-worst in the Big Ten (minus-6) has befuddled Hoosiers players, coaches and fans alike.We went from third in the nation in fewest fumbles after Week 8 and at Week 10 I think were at 101. So weve dropped I think 98 spots in two weeks, coach Kevin Wilson said Monday. To me, its coaching and thats culture. And weve kind of addressed that again.The Hoosiers have seen steady slippage on the turnover front all season.Quarterback Richard Lagow didnt throw an interception till Week 3. Today, his 13 picks are second most in the conference.Its been a similar story with fumbles. After the Hoosiers (5-5, 3-4 Big Ten) lost only two of six fumbles through the first eight weeks (0.75 per game), they are now averaging 1.13 per quarter over the past two weeks .Perhaps its just a case of bad luck.But Wilson cant rely on happenstance to fix this problem.Normally, Wilson instructs players who have footballs during stretching to properly tuck it away. Those who dont wind up losing playing time.I think I was ridiculed years ago when Tevin Coleman went to Ann Arbor (Michigan) and fumbled and came out, Wilson said. But our deal is if you fumble you dont play. I dont know whats up with that but thats how we play here. Thats our culture, and I take responsibility for those fumbles because I think weve gotten lax with that. Brad Daugherty Cavaliers Jersey. .Wilson didnt say if he would do anything different this week.Finding a solution, though, could prove challenging because there doesnt appear to a common thread.Usually sure-handed receiver Mitchell Paige blamed himself for the Penn State loss after losing the ball twice in traffic Saturday. Running back Devonte Williams dropped the ball after Lagow appeared to make a safe handoff on time. Isaac James gave the ball back to the Nittany Lions at his own 6-yard line after a punt bounced into his leg. And the Nittany Lions turned a strip-sack of Lagow in the games waning seconds into their sealing score.If we eliminate the turnovers it could be a different game, Lagow said afterward.They learned that lesson the hard way Saturday and realize they get it fixed in these final two games.First, Indiana visits No. 4 Michigan (9-1, 6-1), where it last won in 1967. Thats followed by the annual Thanksgiving weekend game against rival Purdue (3-7, 1-6) for the Old Oaken Bucket. Indiana has won the last three over the Boilermakers and now has a chance to tie the school record for most consecutive victories in the series.Win either one and the Hoosiers will become bowl-eligible for the second straight season -- a feat they havent achieved since 1990 and 1991.Turn it over like they have been, and the Hoosiers once promising season slip away, too.We address it every day, running back Devine Redding said. We harp on ball security because without the ball, you cant do anything.
