The Cairns Taipans have finally opened their NBL account for the season with a thrilling 83-76 win over Melbourne United at the Snake Pit. Discount Salomon Shoes NZ.The Snakes entered the round four clash with a 0-3 start on the road but a huge night from import point guard Travis Trice got them over the line at home.Trice was a man possessed with 28 points and two assists displaying confidence not yet seen from the Michigan State Alumni.Time and time again the guard penetrated Melbournes paint and was frustrating United so much he earned a shove in the back from import Ramon Moore in the dying stages.Taipans Coach Aaron Fearne had criticised Trice during Cairns poor start but was more than happy with the Americans response.Tonight he was great he made some huge plays down the stretch; he played with emotion and energy and so did the team, that is what I want he said.Melbourne started the night strong and jumped out to a six-point lead halfway through the first quarter until the defensive tenacity of the desperate Taipans kicked in to overtake them in the second.Cairns followed on to find themselves up by as much as 16 points in the third quarter but the class of their opposition continued to make a game of it.United centre Majok Majok threw down two huge jams to start the fourth, sparking a run to get the visitors to within one point with five minutes left to play.Clutch threes from Cam Gliddon, Mark Worthington and Fuquan Edwin gave Cairns some breathing room and Trices constant attacking raids made sure of the result from there.Melbournes Ramon Moore filled in for missing Boomer Chris Goulding admirably, shooting for 15 points from 12 attempts but Devon Williams found himself on four fouls early in the final period.Taipans veteran Alex Loughton was ruled out the day before the match with a sprained thumb but Stephen Weigh provided ample cover with two triples in his best game back since off-season surgery.Nathan Jawai was quiet in his first game back in Cairns, scoring seven points in 20 minutes.United are now 3-4 this season, Coach Dean Demopoulos saying his team are still searching for the right chemistry.Im not sure. Its a process, but I like this team. They work hard every day and we have the potential to be a great basketball team, but we werent tonight he said.Cairns will play the Illawarra Hawks in Wollongong on Sunday while Melbourne will have to lick their wounds until they play New Zealand next Friday. Salomon Shoes NZ Sale . Brett Kulak and Jackson Houck of the Vancouver Giants were each charged with assault causing bodily harm on Aug. 18, according to the B.C. court services. Salomon Shoes NZ Online . PETERSBURG, Fla. http://www.clearancesalomonnz.com/ . After slipping from the summit during the week, the Gunners overcame struggling Crystal Palace 2-0 on Sunday thanks to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlains second-half brace. It seems like Joshua Dobbs has been at Tennessee forever. Dobbs will tell you that, for him, the past four years have passed in the blink of an eye.On Saturday Dobbs will run through the T formed by the Pride of the Southland Band for the final time when the Volunteers take on Missouri.It feels like Ive been here a while, said Dobbs, who will be starting his 33rd game at quarterback for Tennessee. But it also feels like it has flown by in some instances.But the urgency of the task at hand doesnt allow much time for reflection for Dobbs and his fellow 12 seniors. No. 19 Tennessee (7-3, 3-3 SEC) still has a chance to get to the SEC championship game. If the Volunteers can win their final two games with Missouri and Vanderbilt - and if Florida loses to LSU on Saturday - then Tennessee would go to Atlanta for the first time since 2007.And the Volunteers are going to need Dobbs to carry them. A week ago Kentucky ran for 443 yards against Tennessee, but Dobbs would not let his team lose. He threw for 223 yards and ran for 147 more, including a 45-yard touchdown run, as Tennessee won 49-36.Dobbs needs 329 total yards to become No. 3 on the Tennessee career yardage list behind Peyton Manning and Casey Clausen. He already holds the career rushing touchdown record for a quarterback with 26.And he has done it all as one of the best students in college football, majoring in Aerospace Engineering.Hes special, said Tennessee coach Butch Jones. He is everything you want a student-athlete to be.Here are some other key storylines for Saturday: No. 23 Florida (7-2, 5-2) can win the SEC East for the second straight year if the Gators can find a way to beat No. 16 LSU (6-3, 4-2) in Baton Rouge. Youll remember that this game was originally scheduled for Oct. 8 in Gainesville but was rescheduled and relocated due to Hurricane Matthew. LSU, under interim head coach Ed Orgeron, still has a chance at the Sugar Bowl if it can win its final two games with Florida and Texas A&M. Its been a tough season for Mississippi State (4-6, 2-4) but the Bulldogs still have a shot at their seventh straight bowl trip if they can beat Arkansas (6-4, 2-4). The Bulldogs, who have beaten Arkansas in each of the past four seasons, struggled last week against Alabama (51-3) as quarterback Nick Fitzgerald was held to only 15 yards rushing.Look for Fitzgerald to fare better against an Arkansas defense (12th in the SEC in rushing) that has struggled against good running teams like Auburn and LSU. There was not a better storybook ending last Saturday than that of Shea Patterson, the freshman quarterback from Ole Misss. Cheap Salomon Shoes NZ. .After the Rebels lost senior quarterback Chad Kelly to an injury, coach Hugh Freeze had a tough decision to make: To just play out the season with Kellys backup, Jason Pellerin, or to take the redshirt off Shea Patterson, one of the nations top high school quarterbacks and the star of the 2016 recruiting class. After consulting with the family, Patterson played and led the Rebels to a stunning 29-28 victory at Texas A&M.Now Patterson gets his second career start when the Rebels (5-5, 2-4) travel to Vanderbilt (4-6, 1-5). A win would put Ole Miss into a bowl for the fifth straight year.Here are a few more quick storylines:Georgia (6-4, 4-4) is done in conference play. The Bulldogs host Louisiana-Lafayette (4-5) on Saturday and close out the season with Georgia Tech. Eight wins in Kirby Smarts first season, with a chance for a ninth in a bowl, would not be bad.South Carolina (5-5, 3-5) can clinch a bowl bid in Will Muschamps first season as coach with a win over Western Carolina (2-8).No. 25 Texas A&M (7-3, 4-3) plays Texas-San Antonio (5-5) and needs to have an uncomplicated day as the Aggies face LSU on Thanksgiving Day in College Station.After starting 0-2 Kentucky (5-5, 4-4) looked like a long shot for a bowl. But the Wildcats will clinch a spot in the postseason for the first time since 2010 by beating Austin Peay (0-10) at Commonwealth Stadium.No. 19 Auburn (7-3, 5-2) got its heart broken last week with a 13-7 loss at Georgia. That kept the Tigers from playing for the SEC West championship on Nov. 26 against Alabama. But the Tigers need to take care of business against Alabama A&M (4-6) and start getting ready to play for pride against the No. 1 team in the nation. Running back Kamryn Pettway will not play for Auburn for the second straight week and quarterback Sean White is out with a shoulder injury. Jeremy Johnson will start at quarterback, with John Franklin III also getting playing time, according to Auburn coach Gus Malzahn.No. 1 Alabama (10-0, 7-0) has the SEC West and a trip to Atlanta already locked up. So look for the Crimson Tide to get their starters out early against Chattanooga (8-2) in order to get ready for next weeks Iron Bowl with Auburn. A historical note: This will be Coach Nick Sabans 46th game with his team ranked No. 1. That breaks the record he shared with Woody Hayes and Bobby Bowden. Saban should get his 41st win as the No. 1 team, which also breaks the record he shared with Hayes and Bowden. ' ' '
