UNDATED (AP) — South Carolina is the unanimous No. 1 team in the preseason AP Top 25 women’s basketball poll. The defending national champions went wire-to-wire as the No. 1 team last year and have been the top team for 20 straight weeks. Stanford, Texas, Iowa and Tennessee round out the top five. UConn is sixth, the first time since 2006 that the Huskies aren’t in the first five in the preseason poll. Louisville, Iowa State, Notre Dame and N.C. State is the rest of the top 10.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Vanderbilt has signed Jerry Stackhouse to an extension as he enters his fourth season as the Commodores’ head coach. Athletic director Candice Lee announced the extension Tuesday. She credited the growth of the program over Stackhouse’s first three seasons for the move. The Southeastern Conference’s only private university did not announce any specifics of the extension. Stackhouse has turned a program that went winless in the SEC before his arrival to a 19-17 record in his third season. The Commodores also reached the NIT quarterfinals. Stackhouse says he feels fortunate to be at Vanderbilt with stability a tough concept in college athletics.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Defending national champion and unanimous preseason No. 1 South Carolina is, not surprisingly, the favorite to win another Southeastern Conference title. The Gamecocks are the picks to win their seventh SEC championship in 10 seasons and third straight in voting by league and national media. The SEC didn’t release vote totals, but the pick seemed a no-brainer with South Carolina unanimously voted preseason No. 1 in The Associated Press Top 25. Aliyah Boston was named preseason player of the year. Preseason No. 5 Tennessee was picked to finish second and No. 16 LSU third.
UNDATED (AP) — The first half of the college football season has been defined by coaching changes, downtrodden programs finding success and several traditional powers hitting the skids. Over the next seven weeks, there will be more head coaches fired and at least a few hired. Expect more season-altering upsets, too. AP College Football Writer Ralph Russo says the Heisman Trophy race will be decided on conference championship weekend again. He is also picking Ohio State over Alabama in the national title game.
UNDATED (AP) — Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker, two Big Ten running backs and Alabama pass-rusher Will Anderson Jr. highlight The Associated Press midseason All-America team. The team was selected by AP Top 25 voters. Hooker is second in the country in passer efficiency rating at 187.7 and has accounted for 18 touchdowns. Joining Hooker in the backfield is Illinois’ Chase Brown, who leads the nation in yards rushing, and Michigan’s Blake Corum, who has scored 13 touchdowns for the fourth-ranked Wolverines.
UNDATED (AP) — Mississippi’s offense has enjoyed the best of both worlds. The seventh-ranked Rebels have been powered by Quinshon Judkins, Zach Evans and the nation’s No. 3 running game. Ole Miss produced 448 rushing yards against Auburn. A week earlier, Jaxson Dart passed for 448 yards against Vanderbilt. Coach Lane Kiffin’s philosophy of going with what works is certainly working. As Kiffin says, “You don’t ever know what you’re going to see when you play us.” Ole Miss visits LSU on Saturday.
UNDATED (AP) — Alabama is still ranked No. 1 — but in penalties. A now sixth-ranked Crimson Tide team that can hold its own with any college team in talent and has a seven-time national champion coach on the sideline hasn’t been able to get out of its own way at times. Nick Saban’s team finally couldn’t overcome a rash of mistakes in a 52-49 loss to No. 3 Tennessee. The tally included a school-record 17 penalties. Alabama’s 66 penalties is the most among the other 131 FBS teams. The Crimson Tide host No. 24 Mississippi State on Saturday night.
ATLANTA (AP) — New athletic director J Batt knows most Georgia Tech fans want to know who’s going to be the Yellow Jackets’ next permanent football coach. The fans will have to wait, however, to see how Batt goes about his business and learn how Brent Key performs as interim coach after a 2-0 start. Georgia Tech President Ángel Cabrera wasted no time getting Batt to replace Todd Stansbury as AD. Stansbury was fired Sept. 26 along with football coach Geoff Collins after the team got off to a losing start for the fourth straight year. The 40-year-old Batt was hired away from Alabama last week. He was introduced Monday at Georgia Tech.
