MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- Coach Mike Gundy and his Oklahoma State defense are getting ready for a visit from West Virginias low-diving circus act.Mountaineer wide receivers Jovon Durante, Daikiel Shorts and KaRaun White all made difficult catches in traffic last week against TCU, and the Cowboys took notice.They were pretty impressive in the way they were able to catch the football, Gundy said. Theres a reason theyre undefeated. Theyre playing really good football. Youve got to be sound on defense and youve got to find ways to make plays.If West Virginia wide receivers coach Tyron Carrier was excited by what happened against TCU, he wasnt showing it.After studying film with his players, he asked them to rate their performances.They said, `Well, besides the good catches, coach, we didnt do much, which is right on, Carrier said. Those guys are not satisfied with what they have been doing. They know there is a lot more football to be played and a lot more opportunities to prove that they are really good.The next one comes Saturday when No. 10 West Virginia (6-0, 3-0) plays at Oklahoma State (5-2, 3-1).Shorts got things going against TCU on West Virginias opening possession -- not for a catch but for his effort afterward to bull through a defender into the end zone for a 10-yard score.Two series later, Shorts turned around in time 38 yards downfield to make a one-handed grab against his chest between two defenders to set up another touchdown.That was just the start.Just before halftime, quarterback Skyler Howard threw 30 yards downfield where Durante dove in front of TCUs Denzel Johnson and Nick Orr, pulled the ball just off the turf and flipped.Its always been our mind set that if its not our ball, its nobodys ball, Durante said. If its a hard catch, were going to make that catch.It was Whites turn in the third quarter.The brother of Chicago Bears wide receiver Kevin White went high for a catch and tapped his toe along the sideline for a 24-yard gain.Later Howard scrambled to his right and threw a 16-yard floating pass toward the end zone that came down at the intersection of four diving players, including White and teammate Devonte Mathis. White cradled the ball into his chest just above the ground. The TD was upheld upon review.Howard said the TCU game was one of his sloppier ones and that his receivers bailed me out. They really stepped it up.Not bad for a unit that was criticized for its sloppiness a year ago.Shorts has a team-best 31 catches and White is next with 27. Neither is considered West Virginias best deep threat. That label goes to Shelton Gibson, who has a team-high 501 yards and an average of 20 yards per catch.Durante has perhaps shown the greatest improvement from a year ago, when he had numerous drops and caught just six passes for 131 yards over the final seven regular-season games. He was academically ineligible for West Virginias bowl game and was subsequently suspended for the spring semester.Moved to the inside slot position, Durante has 20 catches, almost as many as he had all of last season.Howard has spread his 12 touchdown throws among seven receivers.Theyve got a bunch of explosive guys that were going to have to watch out for, said Oklahoma State safety Jordan Sterns, who has three interceptions and a pair of pass breakups.---Online:More AP college football: http://collegefootball.ap.org Wholesale Soccer Jerseys Authentic . Jane Virtanen scored two, and Alex Roach and Elliott Peterson rounded out the offence for the Hitmen (40-15-6). Brady Brassart chipped in with three assists.

Parenteau scored early in the third period to help the Avs edge Toronto 2-1 on Tuesday night. Cory Sarich also scored for Colorado (3-0-0), which is off to its best ever start. LOS ANGELES -- The Clippers needed more offense and Mo Buckets delivered in the clutch.Maurice Speights scored 11 of his season-high 16 points in the fourth quarter, rallying Los Angeles past Chicago 102-95 on Saturday night to snap the Bulls four-game winning streak.You can take losing in this league, but you dont want to lose that way, Chicagos Dwyane Wade said.Even with all the offense, Speights biggest play came on an assist with 49 seconds left . Jamal Crawford missed a 3-pointer and Speights grabbed the offensive rebound. He fed Crawford for a driving reverse layup that restored the Clippers lead to five points.I was in position to get it and he didnt expect it so I surprised him, said Speights, who was yanked after going scoreless during a brief stint in the first half.Clippers coach Doc Rivers said, It was a great example where you just got to figure it out.Blake Griffin had 26 points and 13 rebounds and Chris Paul added 19 points for the Clippers, whose only two losses have come at home to Oklahoma City and Memphis. Rallying from a 19-point deficit for the victory moved them to an NBA-best 12-2.Wade led Chicago with 28 points, hitting five 3-pointers. Jimmy Butler added 22 points, making 11 of 12 free throws.They had to dig deep into their bag to pull this one out at home, Wade said. Thats what we want to do, make teams walk away scarred up. Feeling like that got away with one, and thats what they should be feeling.The Bulls made just one field goal over the final 6:30, keeping it close on seven consecutive free throws, including five by Butler. Isaiah Canaan hit a 3-pointer to draw them to 97-95 with 44 seconds left.Butler fouled Griffin with 20 seconds to go and he made both for a 99-95 lead. Wade missed a pullup jumper before Taj Gibson and coach Fred Hoiberg were hit with technical fouls in the closing seconds. Hoiberg was ejected.Thats a great team, playing the best basketball in the league, Hoiberg said. We fought them and we gave ourselves a chance.Wade scored 10 of the Bulls first 12 points to start the second quarter, pusshing their lead to 19 points before the Clippers suddenly awakened.ddddddddddddThey outscored Chicago 21-7 to head into halftime trailing 52-47.Griffin scored eight points, highlighted by his dunk over Robin Lopez off a bounce pass in the lane from Paul. Griffin elevated, with his left hand on Lopezs shoulder, and slammed the ball down, drawing a foul.
