UNCASVILLE, Conn. -- Top-ranked Duke bounced back from its loss to Kansas by beating Penn State, but watched another player go down with an injury.Freshman Frank Jackson led five players in double figures with 17 points and Amile Jefferson added 16 points and 15 rebounds to lead the Blue Devils to a 78-68 win Saturday in the Hall of Fame Tip-Off tournament.Sophomore Chase Jeter rolled his left ankle in the first half and didnt return.Tony Carr had 20 points and Shep Garner added 15 to lead Penn State (2-2).Jeter went down under the Penn State basket while going for a rebound. The 6-foot-10 sophomore was on the floor for several minutes before being helped off the court. His injury came minutes after Grayson Allen left the game, favoring the right foot he hurt in the recent loss to Kansas.Allen went back to the locker room, but returned to the floor a few minutes later. He finished with 12 points and needs just three more to become the 65th Duke player with 1,000 points for his career.Matt Jones and Luke Kennard added 15 points each for Duke.Were banged up more than any team Ive ever coached, said Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski. Before the game and then during the game. I mean, Amile has been hurt this week. He has 15 rebounds and 16 points.Despite the injuries, the Blue Devils went on an early 13-2 run that turned a tie game into a 21-10 lead. They led 36-24 at the half, despite some poor shooting from Allen and Kennard, who were a combined 4-15 from the floor. But Jackson picked up the slack, scoring 11 of his points before intermission.To be able to have the next man up, coach does a good job motivating us, Jones said. We didnt come to Duke to lose, be second fiddle or bow down to anybody. We know what were capable of and everyone on that sideline can help. That confidence that is instilled in us, takes us to where we need to go.A 3-point play by Allen stretched the lead to 64-51 midway through the second half.Penn State trailed 72-57 with just under 5 minutes to play, but went on a 9-2 run before the Blue Devils closed out the game.Dukes short bench outscored Penn States 19-5.BIG PICTUREDuke: Jeters injury further depletes a Blue Devils team that is still without three highly touted freshmen -- Harry Giles, Jayson Tatum and Marques Bolden -- as well as junior Sean Obi. They may have just seven players available for Sundays championship game. Krzyzewski pegged Jeters status for the game as doubtful.I know if he can play, he will play, Krzyzewski said. Were going to try and win. We would like to win.Penn State: The Nittany Lions are using the tournament as a measuring stick to see how the young team stacks up against top-level competition. This was the programs first game against a No. 1 ranked team since 2011, and theyre now 0-14 in those games.We took another step today, said coach Patrick Chambers. We got better. And thats our goal Just keep getting better. Its a process thats going to take some time, but were going to eventually get there.POLL IMPLICATIONSDuke was No. 1 in the preseason poll and the first voting of the regular season, but likely will fall a few spots after its loss to Kansas. How far may depend on how they do in this tournament.PERIMETER DEFENSEDuke held Penn State to six 3-point baskets on 21 attempts. Thats not a fluke. The Blue Devils held their first three opponents under 15 percent from the outside and were giving up fewer than three 3-pointers a game coming into the tournament. Duke was 9 for 24 from 3-point range.UP NEXTDuke will play either Cincinnati or Rhode Island in the tournaments championship game Sunday afternoon.Penn State will play the loser of the second game in the tournaments consolation game.----More AP college basketball: www.collegebasketball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25.

And former Tottenham man Andros Townsend could also be in line to make his Newcastle bow.Steve McClarens side were the Premier Leagues biggest spenders, bringing in Townsend, Henri Saivet and Jonjo Shelvey for a combined cost of £29m, while Doumbia joined on loan from Roma. Doumbia could be involved at Goodison Park after receiving his visa, while Townsend is expected to feature for the first time. Romelu Lukaku celebrates Tom Cleverleys late winner at Newcastle Everton have been draw specialists this season, with 11 from their 23 league games to date, but the Toffees have an excellent record against Newcastle, with six wins from their previous eight top-flight meetings.However, Roberto Martinezs side have not won in the league since the reverse fixture at St James Park on Boxing Day, when Tom Cleverleys 94th minute header secured three points.Team newsAs mentioned, Townsend and Doumbia could feature, and left-back Paul Dummett is available after a hamstring problem, while midfielder Jack Colback is close to a return from a similar injury.But Tim Krul (knee), defenders Massadio Haidara (also knee) and Kevin Mbabu (thigh), midfielders Vurnon Anita (hamstring) and Siem de Jong (eye) and striker Papiss Cisse (groin) are still missing.

Last week I went with them to beat Swansea 4-0 and look what happened. I really thought Martinezs side would dominate Swansea, but they just didnt turn up. Everton have been in poor form in the Premier League recently Theyve got star players but they just dont win football matches. It must be so frustrating to be an Everton fan. You look at the team when it comes out onto the pitch and think its a tremendous side.There are not many of those players that do not get in other teams in the Premier League. On the other hand, Newcastle have bought well this month and have played well in patches. But Everton have got too many good players and sooner or later they have to start winning football matches.Im backing Everton again, this time by a score of 3-1 with Lukaku scoring first.PAUL PREDICTS: 3-1 (Sky Bet, 11/1)BettingEverton are 8/13 favourites with Sky Bet with Newcastle 17/4 and the draw a 3/1 shot. The Toffees have a good recent record against the Magpies, but the visitors will be encouraged by Evertons poor home form, only three wins in their last 12 at Goodison, and can be backed at 11/10 in the Double Chance win or draw market.Everton edged it on Boxing Day and are available at 11/4 to win by exactly one goal.Sky Sports pundits Jamie Redknapp Phil Thompson and Matt Le Tissier are unanimous in their backing of Everton to win.
