TUCSON, Ariz. -- Arizonas offense missed opportunities for big plays and sputtered for three quarters against BYU. The defense had issues tackling and gave up a game-winning drive the final 90 seconds.The special teams had its share of breakdowns, leaving the offense buried in its own end most of the night.Some of it was first-game jitters, some of mental and physical errors.None of it had coach Rich Rodriguez too concerned.The things that we need to get fixed are fixable, Rodriguez said on Monday. Its not something like, oh gosh, this will be an issue all year. It shouldnt be. We can get `em fixed.Arizona entered its fifth season under Rodriguez with plenty of questions, particularly at quarterback and on defense.The Wildcats learned a few things in Saturday nights 18-16 loss to BYU in Glendale, but theres still a long way to go in knowing where this team stands.At quarterback, the race had been between junior Anu Solomon and sophomore Brandon Dawkins since the spring.Solomon was named the starter a few hours before the opener and was inconsistent against the Cougars.He was good at times, scrambling away from the constant pressure being brought by BYU and helped lead the Wildcats on a pair of fourth-quarter scoring drives.Solomon held the ball too long at other times -- he was sacked four times -- had two costly interceptions and missed a couple of opportunities that might have gone for big plays. He finished with 213 yards on 20-of-30 passing and lost 20 yards on seven rushing attempts.He made some nice plays, but he also missed some plays that he normally would make, Rodriguez said. He saw the field well at times and other times he didnt see it as well as he has in the past.Rodriguez considered using Dawkins, a better runner than Solomon, a few times Saturday night, but circumstances -- particularly bad field position -- kept him from pulling the trigger.That wont happen for Arizonas home opener against Grambling State this Saturday or in the future.He (Dawkins) does bring a different element and can run and I would have liked to get him in there a couple of series, Rodriguez said. Going forward, we will be conscious of that.It didnt help that Arizonas offensive line had trouble with BYUs multiple defensive fronts early and its aggressive style throughout the game.One of the nations highest-scoring teams since Rodriguez arrived in the desert, the Wildcats had no points and minus-12 yards rushing on 13 carries in the first half before finding a rhythm in the fourth quarter.Things that in practice you do perfectly, easy things to do, we really didnt just execute well, right guard Jacob Alsadek said. Those things were the problems we had up front.Special teams added to Arizonas offensive woes.Because of inadequate kick returning, the Wildcats started most drives deep in their own end, including once from the 1 and another from the 2-yard line.Being cramped in its own end limited Arizonas offensive options and put the brakes on its usual fast-paced tempo. Usually one of the national leaders in plays per game, the Wildcats ran just 56 against BYU.Weve got to get better field position going forward, Rodriguez said. Were an explosive team, but to ask anybody to start two or three times at the 1-yard line is kind of tough.Arizonas defense, the weak part of the team since Rodriguezs arrival, was solid for most of the game, but wore down late.The small-up-front Wildcats allowed BYU running back Jamaal Williams to bull through them for 162 yards and let the Cougars march down the field quickly to set up Jake Oldroyds game-winning field goal in the closing seconds.Arizona also failed to create a turnover.People say youve got to get turnovers, but you cant just talk about how youre going to get turnovers, Rodriguez said. You get turnovers by aggressive play, confusion, making them uncomfortable and we didnt do that to them defensively. Weve got to create turnovers going forward.A lot to work on, yes, but as Rodriguez put it, the problems are fixable.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org Nike Air Max 90 Ultra Moire Sale . -- Jimmie Johnson held off a teammate, passed a pair of Hall of Famers, and dominated once more at Dover.

OLYMPICSRIO DE JANEIRO -- IOC President Thomas Bach defended the decision not to ban Russias entire team from the Rio Games, declaring that the doping crisis wont damage the Olympic bodys credibility and taking a swipe at global anti-doping officials for failing to act sooner against state-sponsored cheating in Russia.Speaking at a news conference five days before the opening of the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Bach said a total ban on Russia for systematic doping would not be justifiable on either moral or legal grounds.Bach was peppered with questions about the International Olympic Committees handling of the Russian scandal, including the decision to give international sports federations the authority to decide which Russian athletes should be cleared to compete in Rio.Bach said the IOC had set a very high bar by imposing strict conditions on the entry of Russians, including a ban on any athletes with prior doping sanctions.RIO DE JANEIRO -- Brazilian police said they rescued the kidnapped mother-in-law of Formula 1 chief Bernie Ecclestone from two men on the outskirts of Sao Paulo.According to police, 67-year-old Aparecida Schunck, who had been held since Friday last week, was not harmed in the operation conducted by Sao Paulos anti-kidnapping division.Schunck is the mother of Fabiana Flosi, married to Ecclestone since 2012.Sao Paulo, Brazils largest city and the center of commerce, for decades has had problems with people being kidnapped and held for ransom, but a dedicated police task force has reduced the crime drastically over the last 15 years.The incident came just ahead of the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.

Organizers said no one was injured in the incident that raises further questions about the quality of construction in the Olympic host city.Philip Wilkinson, a spokesman for the Rio 2016 organizing committee, placed the blame on high tides and a stormy sea. The collapsed structure, which is temporary, is the main access point for boats to reach the water.Wilkinson also said the construction company responsible for the project has been contacted and is expected to make the repairs within four days. Sailing competitions begin Aug. 8.Training will not be affected as the boats can use the permanent ramp to the side of the damaged structure, the Rio 2016s spokesman said.COLLEGE FOOTBALLAUSTIN, Texas -- The sexual assault scandal that took down Baylor Universitys president and revered football coach also found a problem with a bedrock of the schools faith-based education: a student conduct code banning alcohol, drugs and premarital sex that may have driven some victims into silence.Invvestigators with the Pepper Hamilton law firm who dug into Baylors response to sexual assault claims determined the schools rigid approach to drugs, alcohol and sex and perceived judgmental responses to victims who reported being raped created barriers to reporting assaults.dddddddddddd.

The commission said it was impossible to avoid all sporting events.On Sept. 26, the night of the first debate, ESPN will carry the Monday night game featuring the Falcons vs. the Saints. On Oct. 9, the second debate will air opposite the Sunday night game featuring the Giants vs. the Packers on NBC.On Friday, Trump accused Clinton of trying to rig the schedule.

However, that trade was stopped by Lucroy, who refused to waive his no-trade clause and turned down a chance to join a contender.Lucroys decision would have been a huge blow to the Indians if not for the addition of Miller, who will help Cleveland manager Terry Francona shorten games and gives the Indians a legitimate shot at winning their first World Series title since 1948.The Indians sent four minor leaguers, including highly touted outfielder Clint Frazier, to New York for the 31-year-old Miller, who was expected to arrive in Cleveland on Sunday night and could be ready to join the bullpen when the club opens a four-game series against Minnesota.In another trade, the Orioles bolstered their rotation by acquiring left-hander Wade Miley from Seattle for Triple-A lefty Ariel Miranda.
