LAWRENCE, Kan. -- Matthew Wyman couldnt have imagined playing his senior season for anybody but David Beaty.That may be the strongest support he could give the second-year coach, considering Wyman began his career playing for Charlie Weis, endured an interim stint under Clint Bowen and wrapped it up with a longtime high school coach and career assistant trying to turn around the Jayhawks.The year didnt go as expected, Wyman said after a season-ending loss to rival Kansas State on Saturday, but I wouldnt ask for a different team or coach.Winless in their first season under Beaty, the Jayhawks made tangible signs of progress in Year 2. There was their season-opening win over Rhode Island, close calls against TCU and Iowa State, and an overtime victory over Texas in their home finale that snapped a 19-game Big 12 losing streak.They appeared to find a promising young quarterback in Carter Stanley, who threw for 302 yards and two touchdowns against the Wildcats, and have more playmakers on the roster than any recent season. Their defense also made strides, keeping them in games most weeks.Modest improvement, to be sure. But clear improvement, too.The work that those kids have done is not easy. The foundation work that they have done is very difficult and the results have not been very high, Beaty said after addressing his senior class for the last time. For those guys to continue to persevere and be resilient, I think it is going to serve them well in their life. They continue to fight and they continue to move forward.So does Beaty, who now hits the recruiting trail as his vast rebuilding job continues.His first class was lured to Kansas on a compressed timeframe after he replaced Weis, and his second was sold on hopes and dreams after a winless season. At least now, he can sell a couple of wins, a potentially program-defining upset of Texas and some momentum moving forward.Last season was pretty bad. I didnt feel like we were -- chemistry-wise, I didnt feel like we was there yet, senior running back Keaun Kinner said. I know I came with the coach but like, it was definitely, the chemistry wasnt there. This year we definitely stressed family and I know each and every one of us would throw down for another teammate. We always want fight for the man to the left and the right of us. I think weve definitely grown as a team.The Jayhawks will have plenty of holes to replace next season, especially on defense. Defensive ends Damani Mosby and Anthony Olobia are graduating. So are linebackers Marcquis Roberts and Courtney Arnick. The defensive backfield will lose cornerbacks Marnez Ogletree, Fish Smithson and Brandon Stewart, all of whom played crucial downs this season.But just about everyone should return on offense, including wide receivers LaQuivionte Gonzalez and Steven Sims Jr., freshman running back Khalil Herbert and four starters on the offensive line.That should give Kansas a solid foundation to build on two wins.The thing I am most proud about this football team is how much we fight and how much we love football, sophomore linebacker Keith Loneker said. You need that on any team, especially successful teams. I am glad to see a lot of those guys coming back and seeing us go in the right direction. That fight that we had was laid down by our seniors, so it is something we get to build off from them.There is still plenty of work to be done. The Jayhawks havent had more than three wins since 2009, and havent won more than one Big 12 game since 2008, when they last when to a bowl game.They started 5-0 the following year, lost five straight and began their downward spiral.Now, Beaty and the Jayhawks may be starting the climb back up.This season there was a lot of camaraderie, lot of guys really care about each other, on and off the field, Smith said. I believe during the offseason theyll work hard and be ready for next year.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 David Beckham Jersey .C. -- Kemba Walker and the Charlotte Bobcats got off to a fast start, and the Sacramento Kings were never quite able to catch up.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Fitz Magic returned after Geno Smiths sequel ended early, and the New York Jets got their first victory in over a month.Fitzpatrick replaced an injured Smith and led the Jets on three scoring drives, and a rejuvenated defense came up with two rare interceptions in a 24-16 comeback victory over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday that snapped a four-game skid.Its a pretty ironic situation, Fitzpatrick said.Fitzpatrick came in for Smith, starting for the first time since 2014, in the second quarter and led the Jets on a go-ahead drive capped by a 13-yard touchdown catch by Matt Forte. Fitzpatrick finished 9 of 14 for 120 yards and a touchdown for the Jets (2-5), whose last win came at Buffalo on Sept. 15.Its about damn time, safety Calvin Pryor said.Smith injured his right knee while taking a sack from Baltimores Matthew Judon and will have an MRI to determine if he needs to be sidelined. Center Nick Mangold (knee) and linebacker Bruce Carter (hamstring) were also injured.Fitzpatrick was efficient after losing his job earlier in the week. Coach Todd Bowles decided to start Smith over Fitzpatrick , who had thrown an NFL-leading 11 interceptions and just five touchdown passes. Smith was 4 of 8 for 95 yards and a TD to Quincy Enunwa.Justin Tucker put the Ravens (3-4) back up 16-14 as time expired in the first half with his third field goal, a 44-yarder.Joe Flacco started for Baltimore after being questionable with a sore shoulder . He went a team-record 176 consecutive throws without an interception before Buster Skrine picked off his pass in the third quarter and returned it 51 yards to the Ravens 3.But the Jets faltered and had to settle for Nick Folks 22-yard field goal and a 17-16 lead.The defense made it two possessions in a row with a takeaway -- after coming in with just four all season -- as Marcus Gilchrist picked off Flacco and returned it 27 yards to the Ravens 24.This time, the Jets cashed in, but not before some hot potato with the football.On second-and-goal from the 6, Forte ran up the middle for 3 yards and had the ball ripped out of his hands. Timmy Jernigan recovered for Baltimore and tried to advance, but Brandon Marshall stripped the ball and recovered it for the Jets.At the end of the day, coach says the best thing for me to do was to fall on the ball, Jernigan said. From now on, Im going to fall on the ball.Three plays later, Forte ran it in from 1 yard.Forte finished with 100 yards and a TD on 30 carries and four catches for 54 yards and a score. He also joiined Marshall Faulk, Marcus Allen, Thurman Thomas and Herschel Walker as the only players with 8,000 yards rushing, 4,000 yards receiving and 20 TD receptions.dddddddddddd With 3:04 left, Folk had a chance to seal the victory, but his 51-yard field goal attempt was blocked by Brandon Williams.Again, the Jets defense came up big, with Marcus Williams knocking away Flaccos desperation heave as the Ravens dropped their fourth straight -- and second in a row at MetLife Stadium after losing 27-23 to the Giants last week .Flacco was 25 of 44 for 248 yards and the two interceptions.Right now, its us versus ourselves, Brandon Williams said. Weve got to look within ourselves and look at each other and fix the stupid stuff.SMITHS QUICK STARTEnunwa motored down the left sideline and outran two Ravens for a 69-yard touchdown in the first quarter. An excited Smith ran all the way down the field to celebrate with Enunwa as fireworks went off at MetLife Stadium.It was Smiths first touchdown pass since Week 8 of last season at Oakland, when he stepped in for an injured Fitzpatrick. It was also Smiths first start since the 2014 season finale at Miami.WHOOPSBaltimore took a 7-0 lead when rookie Lachlan Edwards, punting on the Jets first offensive series, had the snap go through his hands. Edwards couldnt corral the football as Moore recovered and ran it in for 2 yards.TOUGH SLEDDINGAfter giving up 171 yards rushing, including 111 to David Johnson, at Arizona, the Jets held Baltimore to a franchise-low 6 yards on the ground.Terrance West, who came in having rushed for 295 yards in his last three games, finished with 10 yards on eight carries.BANGED-UP RAVENSThe Ravens had several starters sitting out: linebackers Terrell Suggs (biceps), Elvis Dumervil (foot), C.J. Mosley (thigh), wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. (ankle), cornerback Shareece Wright (thigh), guard Marshal Yanda (shoulder) and left tackle Ronnie Stanley (foot).BYRD HONOREDThe Jets honored the late Dennis Byrd with a pregame video tribute after he was killed last weekend in a car accident in Oklahoma.Byrd was an inspiration to many after he overcame brief paralysis and walked again just a few months after injuring his neck during a play in 1992. The defensive lineman, who played for the Jets for four seasons, died in a two-vehicle collision last Saturday. He was 50.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Wholesale Hoodies NFL Shirts Outlet Jerseys NFL Wholesale Cheap NFL Jerseys Free Shipping Wholesale Jerseys Cheap Cheap NFL Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys ' ' '
