Jayhawks score first, can't hold on for win
Kansas falls to 0-6 on the year with loss

It was mayhem on ice.
When the Kansas Jayhawks men's club hockey team took the ice yesterday against a tough University of Nebraska squad, the physical intensity could be heard miles away from the rink.
The Jayhawks lost the game 6-2,but the score is not representative of the game that was played.
From the opening faceoff
the starting line of senior Price Duncan , junior Ryan Dunn, and sophomore Jake Mitchell came out head hunting. The trio, along with starting defensive pairing of junior Brendan Colbert and junior Kevin Kiske, made a strong opening statement.
The layhawks opened up the scoring just 3:22 into the first period, with a power play goal by Mitchell. Mitchell fired a shot from the top of the right circle that sneaked through the five hole of Nebraska goalie Chris Taylor.
Unfortunately for Kansas, the Huskers answered within three minutes on a deflection in front of goalie senior Lukas Renard.
also on a power play. The game took a turn for the worse for Kansas after the goal, as the Huskers would pile on four more unanswered goals.
While the team did suffer two losses this past weekend, assistant coach Mike Berard is trying to make sure that the team knows the position they are in.
"The season

"In the offensive zone we controlled the puck real good, that's not the problem," Berard said. "For us the problem is gaining the offensive zone. It was our power play breakout where we had a tough time finding the open guy to speed through the neutral zone to gain the offensive zone."
With two practices this week before traveling to Lindenwood University, the Jayhawks look to correct their faults and get on the winning track.

Five field goals carry Cincinnati past Baltimore
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CINCINNATI — Instead of watching a game, Mike Nugent got a chance to win one.
The kicker who spent most of last season watching from home had the best day of his career on Sunday. He made all five of his field goal tries, sending the Cincinnati Bengals to a 15-10 victory over the Baltimore Ravens that extended their domination of the AFC North.
Instead of Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco, the star of this one was the kicker.
"Hey Hollywood!" holder Kevin Huber called out to him in the locker room.
Nugent's perfect day made the difference in a game dominated by the defenses. He was cut by Tampa Bay early last season and learned what it's like to be out of a job in the NFL.
"It was something to experience firsthand, sitting on Sundays
watching people do a job you want to be in." Nugent said. "You realize there's a lot of people watching on Sundays who want your job."
The former Ohio State kicker watched the Bengals (1-1) make the playoffs last season by running the table in their division, going 6-0 for the first time in franchise history. Cincinnati has won its past eight division games, a club record.
"It's always been this way for the past 10 years I've played against them," receiver Chad Ochocinco
said. "It's never been a blowout. It's always close. I don't know why the games are always like that. It's extremely frustrating from a skill position set, but I think the linemen and the defense enjoy games like this. And the defense really saved us today."
10-9 win — the same score it beat the Jets by on Monday night — after Billy Cundiff kicked a 38-yarder with 5:46 to go.
The Ravens (1-1) couldn't pull one out despite another brilliant day by their defense, which hasn't allowed a touchdown in its past 10 quarters including the playoffs. Baltimore was in position for a
Two big plays set up Nugent's decisive kicks.
Bernard Scott returned the ensuing kickoff 60 yards to set up Nugent's go-ahead kick from 38 yards. Linebacker Brandon Johnson then intercepted Joe Flacco and returned it to the Ravens 11-yard line, giving Nugent a chance for his decisive fifth kick with 24-8 left.

Talib gets first pick of 2010 Bucs win
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Josh Freeman and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers continued to show remarkable growth. The Carolina Panthers remained in disarray, and may be ready to turn permanently to their own young quarterback.
Freeman returned to the site of the worst game of his brief pro career and threw for 178 yards and two touchdown passes in Tampa Bay's 20-7 win over Carolina on Sunday to give the Buccaneers their first 2-0 start in five years.
A year after starting 0-7 and just over nine months removed from Freeman's five-interception nightmare against Carolina, the second-year quarterback avoided any big mistakes or turnovers. The miscues were made by the bumbling Panthers (0-2), who couldn't move the ball as Matt Moore had two more turnovers and was benched for rookie Jimmy Clausen in the fourth quarter.
Freeman threw touchdown passes to Earnest Graham and rookie Mike Williams, and also scrambled for 43 yards on four carries for the Bucs, who were 3-13 last season.
But in just the second year of their youth movement, the Buccaneers appear on the right path. After beating Cleveland with a solid second-half defensive effort in Week 1, Tampa Bay held Carolina's running game in check to end a three-game skid against the Panthers.
Moore threw a 37-yard touchdown pass to Steve Smith for Carolina, but had an interception and lost a fumble on a sack leading to his benching early in the fourth quarter after completing just 6 of 16 passes for 125 yards.
Clausen completed that many passes on his first drive, but it ended with Jonathan Stewart stuffed shy of the goal line. Clausen was picked off by Aqib Talib in the final minutes and finished 7 of 13 for 59 vards.
That would be all Tampa Bay would need with Carolina's anemic offense.
