FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Dusty Hannahs had 19 points as 10 players scored for Arkansas in a 90-65 win over Southern Illinois on Monday night.Southeastern Conference preseason Player of the Year Moses Kingsley added 15 points, 7 rebounds and 5 blocks for the Razorbacks (2-0), who improved to 48-2 in nonconference games under sixth-year coach Mike Anderson.Hannahs, Arkansas leading scorer last season, hit 5 of 6 3-point attempts -- helping the Razorbacks finish 13 of 23 overall from behind the arc. The senior also had five rebounds in 20 minutes of action.We made shots, Anderson said. I think were a good shooting team, and I thought we took rhythm shots ... Weve got multiple guys who can make shots, and thats what we saw tonight.Daryl Macon finished with 12 points for the Razorbacks, hitting 4 of 6 3-pointers, while C.J. Jones added 11 in his season debut. Arkansas shot 58.3 percent (21 of 36) in the first half and finished 30 of 61 (49.2 percent) for the game.Armon Fletcher led the Salukis (0-2) with 13 points, while Leo Vincent and Sean Lloyd added 10 each in the loss.Southern Illinois was 8-of-33 shooting (24.2 percent) in the first half and finished 22 of 60 (36.7 percent) from the field. Thik Bol added nine points and 12 rebounds, and the Salukis -- who were 22-10 last season -committed 17 turnovers.That could have been a lot worse than it was at times, Southern Illinois coach Barry Hinson said. ... You could tell that we wanted to make sure that they had to make 3s in order to beat us. That was a heck of a game plan, wasnt it, because they made 3s and beat us.Arkansas, which made almost 40 percent of its 3-pointers last season, struggled somewhat from behind the arc in its season-opening win over IPFW last week -- hitting 6 of 16 3-pointers. Hannahs, one of the top 3-pointer shooters in the Southeastern Conference last season, was among those to struggle while hitting 1 of 6 from deep.The Razorbacks found their touch in the first half against Southern Illinois, hitting 9 of 13 3-pointers on their way to a 56-25 halftime lead. Hannahs and Macon each hit all three of their 3-point attempts in the half, in which Arkansas led by as many as 34 points on its way to the comfortable win.BIG PICTURETwo games into the addition of three of the top junior-college recruits in the country, Arkansas appears to be meshing just fine. The trio of Macon, Jaylen Barford and Arlando Cook combined for 30 points on Monday, providing the Razorbacks some much-needed offense a season after they finished a disappointing 16-16 and missed the postseason. Tonight, it was going, Macon said. We found open shots, knocked them down, found each other and just played as a team.CROWD WOESThe estimated actual attendance in the 19,200-seat Bud Walton Arena on Monday night was 4.270. Arkansas averaged 20,134 fans during its national championship season of 1994, and Hinson -- who coached in Fayetteville with both Oral Roberts and Missouri State -- was disappointed in the environment on Monday. Thats not an Arkansas crowd, Hinson said. Thats not a Razorbacks crowd.UP NEXTSouthern Illinois returns home to host Missouri Southern State on Wednesday night.The Razorbacks stay at home for their third straight game to open the season when they host Texas-Arlington on Friday night.---More AP college basketball: http://collegebasketball.ap.org Custom Houston Astros Jerseys .

Jake Marisnick Astros Jersey .ca. Kerry, Just watched the shootout in the Coyotes/Leafs game and I have to ask, why was the James van Riemsdyk goal allowed to count? All of the video replays we were shown on TV were inconclusive about whether the puck had entirely crossed the line or not. DURHAM, N.C. -- Wake Forest has scored a few touchdowns and earned a couple of Atlantic Coast Conference victories under coach Dave Clawson.They just never happened in the same game -- until now.Wake Forest upset Duke 24-14 on Saturday behind three touchdowns from freshman Cade Carney and a big game from hometown favorite Kendall Hinton.Carney rushed for 108 yards while becoming the programs first freshman with a three-TD game since Chris Barclay against Purdue in 2002. He scored on runs of 7, 1 and 55 yards -- the last of which broke a 14-all tie with about 4 minutes left in the third quarter.It added up to a big step forward for the Demon Deacons, even if Clawson wasnt ready yet to pronounce it so.Were 2-0, and now weve got to work hard. The reward for winning a game like this is, the next game becomes more important, Clawson said. Whether this is a turning point in our program, you cant say that now.Wake Forest entered with just seven wins under Clawson. Two of those came against FCS schools and three others were in less-than-inspiring fashion: A 6-3, double-overtime win against Virginia Tech in 2014, a 3-0 win at Boston College last year and last weeks 7-3 victory over Tulane.In this complete effort, the Demon Deacons erased one particularly pesky footnote: They had failed to score a touchdown in either of their prior ACC wins under Clawson.They can thank Carney and Hinton, who threw for 133 yards and rushed for 63 more. Mike Weaver made it a 10-point game by kicking a 34-yard field goal with 3:50 to play.The Demon Deacons (2-0, 1-0) entered just 4-20 in league games during the last three years. They outrushed Duke 239-37, and -- after managing just 175 total yards against Tulane -- more than doubled that in this one by rolling up 389 total yards.When a team invests as much as our guys have invested, theyre not going to fall apart after one drive or one game, Clawson said.Redshirt freshman quarterback Daniel Jones had a pair of 1-yard scoring runs on zone-read keepers for the Blue Devils (1-1, 0-1), who were 6 1/2-point favorites. But he was intercepted by Brad Watson deep in Wake Forest territory with 1:54 left, and that all but sealed it.You never know what play in the game is going to make a huge difference, Duke cooach David Cutcliffe said.dddddddddddd This time, we werent consistent enough.THE TAKEAWAYWake Forest: The Demon Deacons not only earned their first win over Duke since 2011, they might have found their quarterback in Hinton -- though Clawson wasnt ready to anoint him as his starter.Hinton had split time with John Wolford since the start of last season and came off the bench in this one, but wound up taking every significant snap in the final 2 1/2 quarters and led all four scoring drives. Hinton was 6 of 11 passing and averaged 5.7 yards on his 11 carries.For me to get up here after a game and make a pronouncement isnt fair to any parties involved, Clawson said.Duke: An offense that was so efficient in the first half against an FCS opponent last week still isnt anything close to a finished product. This could have been a Duke blowout, but in the first half Duke lost a fumble on a deflected backwards pass near midfield, netted no yards after forcing a fumble at the Wake Forest 35 and missed field goals of 30 and 43 yards. The Blue Devils also fumbled away their opening series of the third quarter, turned it over three times -- giving them eight on the season -- and never led in the second half.Our inability to run it early was obvious, Cutcliffe said. Some of our best players are in the backfield. Weve got to put them to work.BAROMETER GAME?Maybe Wake Forest can start checking out hotel rates and flights for the holidays because in eight of the last 10 years, the winner of the Wake Forest-Duke game has gone to a bowl while the loser stayed home. The exceptions: the 2009 and 10 Demon Deacons, who beat the Blue Devils but finished with losing records.UP NEXTWake Forest: The Demon Deacons will look for their first 3-0 start since 2008 when they play host to Delaware of the FCS.Duke heads to Northwestern for the first of two straight out-of-conference trips to the Midwest, with a visit to Notre Dame the following week.---Follow Joedy McCreary at http://twitter.com/joedyap.
