The winner of the Big 12 Conferences de facto championship game will get a sweet prize indeed.While Oklahoma or Oklahoma State will be headed to the Sugar Bowl, the Big 12 overall wont have enough eligible teams to fill its seven guaranteed bowl spots.Six Big 12 teams still have their regular-season finales to play Saturday, including the Bedlam rivalry game that will determine the conference champ. All of those teams already have six wins (or more) needed for bowl eligibility.But none of the four teams that ended last weekend, including Texas and Texas Tech at 5-7, have winning records.Seventh-ranked Oklahoma (9-2, 8-0 Big 12) and 11th-ranked Oklahoma State (9-2, 7-1) are both without a loss since September. In the other Big 12 regular-season finales, 14th-ranked West Virginia (9-2, 6-2) hosts Baylor (6-5, 3-5); and TCU (6-5, 4-4) is home against Kansas State (7-4, 5-3).I think our people would be fired up about the opportunity to be in a New Years Day bowl, coach Mike Gundy said Monday about the possibility of returning to the Sugar Bowl, where the Cowboys lost 48-20 last January.We had a great experience. We didnt play as well as we wanted to, he said. We were not a very healthy football team at that time and played a really, really good Ole Miss team.Oklahoma beat Alabama 45-31 in the Sugar Bowl three seasons ago, but last year was in the four-team playoff.The Sooners, with eight wins in a row since losing two non-conference games, were eighth in the CFP ranking last week.You always want to have a chance at the national championship and the playoffs, but it doesnt work every year, Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said during the Big 12 coaches teleconference. You do the best you can.A new CFP ranking comes out Tuesday night, but a href(equals)https://apnews.com/fdc0047dde4c4f68931e9...isman-pushesthe Sooners/a were already behind undefeated Alabama and one-loss Ohio State, which beat Oklahoma in September. The defending national champion Crimson Tide and the Buckeyes, even without going to the Big Ten title game, appear to be locked into playoff spots.The winner of the Big Ten championship game -- Wisconsin or Penn State -- will have two losses, but both were also ahead of the Sooners. So were the potential ACC and Pac-12 champions.With the Big 12 champion headed to the Sugar Bowl, or the runner-up if the champion somehow gets into the playoff, these are the leagues other bowl spots to be filled:The Alamo Bowl (vs. Pac-12) gets the second pick from Big 12 teams, followed by the Russell Athletic Bowl (vs. ACC), the Texas Bowl (vs. SEC), the Liberty Bowl (vs. SEC) and the Cactus Bowl (vs. Pac-12). That would leave the Armed Forces Bowl, with the smallest payout, without a Big 12 team for its game in TCUs home stadium.Some other notes from the final Big 12 coaches teleconference of the season:UNSELFISH MOUNTAINEERSWest Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen has often talked about how unselfish his team is this season. The latest example is freshman running back Martell Pettaway, who had his redshirt pulled in the 11th game because of injuries, then ran 30 times for 180 yards and a touchdown. We had no choice, Holgorsen said. If he was a selfish guy, he wouldnt have been on board with that. ... He took advantage of his opportunity.NOT EVERYBODYOnly the six coaches with games left took part in Mondays call. The leadoff spot held the past three seasons by Texas coach Charlie Strong, who was fired and replaced by Tom Herman, was silent, as were the usual slots for David Beaty of Kansas (2-10), Matt Campbell of Iowa State (3-9) and Kliff Kingsbury of Texas Tech (5-7) .COMING BACKTCU, which got bowl eligible with its 31-9 win at Texas, also had two double-overtime losses and lost at home to Big 12-leading Oklahoma by six points. Coach Gary Patterson said many players will be back next year, along with some that missed this season with injuries. Were going to see how much this group grows up, he said.LIKE THE MULLETHeck, its grown on me through the season. Maybe I wasnt such a fan early on, but Ive come to really like it, Stoops said, chuckling, about Gundys mullet haircut.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25. Thomas Vanek Sabres Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. Thomas Vanek Jersey .ca! Hi Kerry, Heres an interesting one. I know its common knowledge that all players are responsible for their sticks.

England piled up big totals in their three group games but lost early wickets in Sundays encounter as they were bowled out for 184 in the 50th over - Callum Taylor top scoring with 42 from 57 deliveries.Sri Lanka cruised home in the 36th over, opener Aviskha Fernando starring with 95 from 96 balls, to set up a semi-final clash with three-time champions India.We thought it was a pretty good wicket, and I guess 185 just isnt enough really, said England captain Brad Taylor, who chose to bat after winning the toss.All the guys agreed that batting first and getting runs on the board was the right thing to do. It didnt do an awful lot, we just made errors really.Its the way we lost our wickets, with some soft dismissals. We could have got up to 250 if wed consolidated in that middle period.Its just a case of getting yourself in on these pitches. Get in, then you can go big. Dan Lawrence (L) and Jack Burnham (R) suffered rare blips with the bat Dan Lawrence, who had made 174 in Englands first game against Fiji and passed 50 against Zimbabwe and West Indies, chopped on for nine, with opening partner Max Holden caught at slip for eight.dddddddddddd. Callum Taylor played the only substantial innings but Sam Curran, George Bartlett, Ben Green and Brad Taylor chipped in with twenties to give Englands bowlers at least something to defend.However, Fernando drilled Curran for four consecutive boundaries in the third over and Sri Lanka never looked back, Fernandos only frustration that he fell to Saqib Mahmood before reaching three figures.Lawrence claimed a wicket, as well as a run out with a direct hit from cover, while Mason Crane bowled Sri Lanka skipper Kariyawasam Asalanka around his legs, but England are now consigned to fighting for fifth place.Watch the fourth quarter-final, between Pakistan and West Indies, from 2.30am, Monday, Sky Sports 4.
