AVONDALE, Ariz. Custom Suns Jerseys . -- Kevin Harvick says the lucky horseshoe that drivers accuse him of having has gone missing the past three or four weeks.He might not need it Sunday at Phoenix International Raceway. He has won five of the past six races at Phoenix, leading 1,064 laps along the way.Harvick most likely needs a win Sunday to make the championship round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup, and he obviously knows how to get around Phoenix fast.How does he get so fast?His crew chief, Rodney Childers, said the way Harvick breaks down what he needs is the key to his success on the 1-mile oval.You will hear everybody in the garage come off the racetrack and say, Im just too tight in the center and too loose off, Childers said. Here, he can break down every 10 foot of what he needs in the car to do better.Harvick said he just has a knack to know what he wants, and he has a team willing to make the adjustments. He will start sixth Sunday and feels good about his car.They are very open to changing things to get them how I like them, Harvick said. I have a specific way that I like to let off the brake and go back to the throttle and want the car to feel here. So it seems like we are always changing a lot of things and migrate back to a lot of things.We have the balance of the car different from time to time, but definitely searching for something that I like that they are good to try to adapt to.Childers said the success stems equally from the team getting the car to Harvicks liking and Harvick then taking that car and going fast. He said that is why Harvick might not look great early in the race, but once the track gets a good amount of tire rubber, he can find the line that works best.The biggest thing is, he is good at giving you detailed information, Childers said. Hes good at this racetrack, but the reason he is good is he knows what its supposed to feel like in order to win.Our team has done a good job of giving him fast race cars that are capable of winning.If the car is capable of winning, Harvick should at least be in contention. He knows there are no guarantees.I have been around this long enough to know that there are no givens in this particular sport, the 2014 Cup champion said. There are too many things that can go wrong. There are too many things that can change.From the first race to this race, when we are done today and you looked at the setup sheets, you would think we are at two different racetracks. And that is just how fast things progress and change. Penny Hardaway Jersey Large . 8 Iowa State on Saturday, sending the Cyclones to their third consecutive loss. The Longhorns (14-4, 3-2) got their biggest win of the season with their third in the row in the Big 12. Custom Suns Jersey China .H. -- Matt Kenseth made it 2 for 2 in the Chase, holding off teammate Kyle Busch to win Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. http:///...ersey-large-72r.html . Each of Houstons starters scored in double figures as the Rockets improved to 2-0 against the Spurs this season, with both victories coming on the road. They also moved within 3 1/2 games of San Antonio (22-7) for the lead the Southwest Division. (STATS) -- Liberty has made no effort to hide its desire to join an FBS conference and play with the big boys, a stance that was reignited this week when school president Jerry Falwell Jr. said the Flames might make the leap in a matter of months.Beating one of the premier teams in the FCS should make them a bit more attractive to potential suitors.Theres a golden opportunity to land a signature win Saturday against No. 3 Jacksonville State, the Ohio Valley Conference power that made it to the national championship game last season and the highest-ranked team that will have ever visited Lynchburgs Williams Stadium.Ive heard so much about the environment at Liberty, Gamecocks coach John Grass said. I think its one of the best in FCS football.Falwell Jr. is hoping the 27-year-old stadium will soon be one of the better -- albeit tinier, at 19,200 -- environments in the FBS. He announced in 2012 that the Flames (1-2) were ready to jump to the FBS, and though some brief flirtation with the Sun Belt never materialized, there could soon be a new opportunity. The Big 12 is currently considering expansion candidates -- a vote is possible as early as an Oct. 17 board meeting -- and the domino effect could leave either the American Athletic Conference or Conference USA looking for a new member or two.Grass team is coming off a 27-26 win over Coastal Carolina, another former Big South member thats making the move to the FBS. Following this transition season, the Chanticleers are off to the Sun Belt.We just talked about Coastal Carolinas budget and moving up; well, Liberty has the same kind of budget and wanting to move up, they are just waiting on a conference to take them, Grass said. They have the biggest budget in FCS football and maybe some of the lower level Power 5 schools, so they have a lot going on with their university and in the right direction.All that speculation has little meaning to Turner Gills current team, which is 0-for-2 against FBS schools in September after recording FBS wins in each of the past two seasons. The Flames are simply concentrating on finding a way back to the FCS playoffs, which they missed out on last season after making their inaugural tripp in 2014. Wholesale Custom Suns Shirts. Theres an automatic path in by winning the Big South, but a victory over Jacksonville State could give them a reasonable chance of an at-large berth should they stumble. After Saturday, the schedule isnt exactly challenging until two games in six days in mid-November against Charleston Southern and Coastal Carolina.Its been great focus all week, Gill said. Im not saying its been a whole lot of rah-rah stuff, but paying attention to detail and a lot of great communication from teammate to teammate. When I see that, that tells me theyre focused and ready to go.As of Friday morning, Gill was still silent in naming a starting quarterback. Neither of his options have played well thus far. Junior Stephon Masha has thrown six interceptions in just 60 pass attempts, giving him an interception percentage thats the second highest in all of Division I. And though hes completed only 51.7 percent of his throws, thats 1.7 percent better than freshman Stephen Calvert, who saw his most extensive action yet in last Saturdays 29-14 loss to SMU.The Flames will need whichever signal caller is taking snaps to succeed through the air, because theyll likely find space hard to come by on the ground. LSU had success rushing against Jacksonville State, but Coastal Carolina gained just 42 yards on 35 carries.Theres no uncertainty under center for the Gamecocks (2-1). Eli Jenkins paved the way to the title game last season and despite a dip in accuracy through three games, hes still the driving force in an offense thats cracked 500 total yards against both of its non-FBS opponents.(Jenkins), in my mind, is no question one of the top players in the country, Gill said.There are four wins over FCS top-10 foes on Gills resume since arriving at Liberty in 2012 -- the Flames knocked off both Montana and Coastal in Lynchburg last season -- but theres a reason Jacksonville State heads north as a 9 1/2-point favorite in this one. The Gamecocks have lost only three regular-season games since Grass took over in 2014 -- to Michigan State, Auburn and LSU. ' ' '
