LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Lamar Jacksons start has generated a buzz around Louisville and overshadowed an opportunistic Cardinals defense that has helped create chances for him to burst into the Heisman Trophy conversation.The third-ranked Cardinals most recent performance suggests their defense is poised to raise its profile.Jacksons five-touchdown, 362-yard offensive performance in Louisvilles 63-20 rout of Florida State on Saturday was aided by a defense that registered five sacks and recorded two turnovers, both of which led to TDs. The Cardinals also held the Seminoles to three-and-out on their initial third-quarter possession and set the stage for Jaire Alexanders 69-yard punt return TD that made it 42-10 and put the game out of reach.We push each other and thats what its all about, senior safety Josh-Harvey Clemons said. The offense makes us work hard and if they have a bad series, its up to us to make it right. If we have a bad series, its up to the offense to make it right.The Cardinals defense did its part in holding FSU to 284 yards. But that didnt satisfy a unit annoyed by allowing two 10-point spurts.Were still making mistakes, junior defensive end Drew Bailey said Monday. Florida State still scored (23) points; they shouldve scored zero. ... We still have a lot of stuff we have to clean up.Perhaps, but the Cardinals seem to be filling voids created by departures of players to the NFL draft.Though Louisville returned senior lineman DeAngelo Brown, linebackers Keith Kelsey and Devonte Fields and Harvey-Clemons, the Cardinals needed to build depth after lineman Sheldon Rankins was selected in the first round by the New Orleans Saints. They have gotten impressive contributions several players, including junior linebacker James Hearns, whose team-high 3.5 sacks are one better than his career total entering this season.Redshirt freshman linebacker Jonathan Greenard is tied with Fields for second with two sacks on a Louisville squad tied for fifth nationally with 13. Sophomore cornerback Alexander meanwhile has complemented his special teams play with some big moments on defense: his second-quarter fumble recovery at FSUs 23 set up Jacksons lone TD pass for a 28-10 lead. Chucky Williams interception led to another TD.We were able to set the edge and then get guys running downhill to fill the gaps, Louisville coach Bobby Petrino said of the defensive strategy against FSU. We mixed up coverages, we mixed up how we rushed, we blitzed at different times. It was just a great game plan by our defensive staff and very well executed by our players.Louisville enters Saturdays game at Marshall (1-1) seeking to build on that effort while improving its tackling and run defense. Those prospects seem encouraging after a signature win the Cardinals suggest is just the beginning.Starting 0-3 leaves a bad taste in your mouth and most of the guys came back feeling like we have something to prove, Harvey-Clemons said. With us sticking together and the guys we have back, we feel like we can do great things.---AP College Football: collegefootball.ap.org---Follow Gary B.

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. -- Denny Hamlin wasnt about to get shoved aside again.Ignoring what he described as the worst pain he has ever felt in a race, Hamlin prevailed in a four-lap dash to the checkered flag Sunday to win the wreck-filled Sprint Cup race at newly paved Watkins Glen International.Its the first road course win of Hamlins Cup career and atoned for his stunning loss on the road course at Sonoma in June, when he was beaten by Tony Stewart with a bang on the last turn.Its very hard to win these races, Hamlin said. I only made one mistake at Sonoma, and I didnt win.Hamlin was virtually flawless at The Glen and was able to conserve enough fuel at the end, thanks to eight cautions for 20 laps. The race also had two red-flag stoppages for 30 minutes.We executed perfectly. Didnt make any mistakes on pit road, Hamlin said. Hoping for those caution laps that we needed. That allowed us to make it on fuel.That Hamlin was behind the wheel of the No. 11 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota was in doubt before the race. He was in pain when he awoke.Knew I was in pretty big trouble, said Hamlin, who has undergone two knee surgeries in his career. I was thinking under the [last] red flag Lets get this over with so I can get out of this car.The race was shaping up as another duel between Brad Keselowski and Kyle Busch in the closing laps. But a rash of late cautions shuffled Busch back.Keselowski restarted with the lead with 25 laps to go in the 90-lap race, and Busch stalked him in second as the leaders began turning the fastest laps of the race around the 2.45-mile layout with the end in sight.The sixth caution flew on Lap 78 for a blown engine and erased a five-second lead the two leaders had built over Hamlin, Martin Truex Jr. and Joey Logano, who was seeking his second straight sweep of the Cup and Xfinity races at The Glen.Keselowski lost the lead on the restart when both he and Busch overdrove the first turn, a 90-degree downhill right-hander, and Hamlin sneaked past to take the lead before another caution flew.When I saw them move forward and lunge into the corner, I knew there was no way for them to get out with any sensible speed, Hamlin said. It was my opportunity.Hamlin held a slim lead over Truex and Keselowski as the three ran nose-to-tail entering the final turns of the race. Keselowski spun Truex in the last turn and Hamlin coasted to the victory.Logano finished second, and Keselowski, AJ Allmendinger, Stewart and Busch completed the top six.We got ourselves in positioon to win the race, but I didnt have the speed to make it happen, Logano said.ddddddddddddJeff Gordon drove the No. 88 Chevy for Hendrick Motorsports in relief of Dale Earnhardt Jr. for the third straight race and finished 14th in his 800th career start after an early accident. Earnhardt is recovering from a concussion and is expected to miss at least two more races.Buescher survives: Despite a pit road penalty and a late crash, Chris Buescher remained on the cusp of making the Chase for the Sprint Cup title after finishing 30th, one lap down. The surprise winner last week in the rain at Pocono came to Watkins Glen six points outside the top 30 in points, a requirement for making the postseason Chase, and now trails David Ragan by three points. Ragan also was involved in a crash and finished 33rd.You know, for us, kind of hoped wed get a lot more than what we did, Buescher said. Its a bummer the way it worked out.Infractions, infractions: NASCAR increased the number of timing lines on pit road at Watkins Glen from six to 14 this year, and it ended up costing a lot of drivers a lot of time. Of the 31 infractions handed out, seven were for speeding. A tire out of the pit box was costly for pole sitter Carl Edwards. He led the first 25 laps, suffered the penalty on his first pit stop, and finished 15th after getting spun in an altercation with Ragan and Clint Bowyer.The crash: There were two more crashes coming out of the sweeping carousel turn coming to the backstretch. The big one came when Ricky Stenhouse Jr. lost control of his No. 17 Ford coming out of the sweeping right-hander and skidded across the track. Jimmie Johnson slammed hard into Stenhouse, and Greg Biffle and Austin Dillon also were involved. Johnson finished last.That crowd: While most NASCAR venues dont attract the crowds they used to, Watkins Glen, with its fantastic finishes, remains an exception. The track announced its second straight grandstand sellout. Although attendance figures arent released, the crowd estimate was just under 100,000.Im sure the fans loved it, Logano said. It was pretty cool when I pulled over for the red flag in front of the grandstands and I could hear just fans screaming and yelling and loving it. I thought, Man, this is really cool to be in the drivers seat right now. Up next: Night race at Bristol on Aug. 20. Logano is the defending winner.
