KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- By halftime of its game with Missouri on Saturday, Tennessee should know whether it still has a chance of reaching the Southeastern Conference championship game.The Volunteers insist theyd rather just concentrate on the task at hand.In order to win its first SEC Eastern Division title since 2007, Tennessee (7-3, 3-3) must win its final two games and have No. 21 Florida (7-2, 5-2) lose at No. 16 LSU (6-3, 4-2) on Saturday. The Florida-LSU game should end sometime during the first half of Tennessees game with Missouri (3-7, 1-5).Nothings going to happen unless we beat Missouri, so thats our primary focus, Tennessee defensive end Corey Vereen said.Tennessee coach Butch Jones was asked this week if he might consider making sure that the LSU-Florida result wasnt announced at Neyland Stadium just to make sure his players didnt get caught thinking about their division title hopes.It may sound like coach-speak, but I havent even thought about that, Jones said. When you put Missouri on video, youre facing a very, very talented football team thats going to take all of our effort and all of our energies.Tennessee enters this game as a 15-point favorite but knows not to overlook anyone. The Vols already lost as a two-touchdown favorite earlier this season when they fell 24-21 at South Carolina .Since joining the SEC in 2012, Missouri has won in each of its two previous trips to Knoxville. The Tigers won 51-48 in four overtimes in 2012 and 29-21 in 2014.The Tigers snapped a five-game losing streak last week by beating Vanderbilt 26-17 . Missouris chances of earning a second straight win depends on whether it can slow down Tennessee quarterback Joshua Dobbs, who threw three touchdown passes and rushed for 147 yards and two more scores last week in a 49-36 victory over Kentucky .Hes running away from people, hes running over people and hes playing as good as anybody, Missouri coach Barry Odom said. Hes a total player.---Some other things to watch Saturday when Tennessee hosts Missouri.ELITE PASS RUSHERS: Tennessee defensive end Derek Barnett has recorded 10 sacks each of the last three seasons to give him a career total of 30, putting him two shy of Reggie Whites school record. Missouris Charles Harris has delivered 17 tackles and 4 + sacks over his last two games.ON THE RUN: Tennessee is coming off a 376-yard rushing performance against Kentucky in which quarterback Joshua Dobbs gained 147 yards, Alvin Kamara ran for 128 yards and John Kelly picked up 94 yards. Missouri freshman Damarea Crockett has rushed for 837 yards this season and is facing a Tennessee defense that has allowed 340.8 yards rushing per game and 6.7 yards per carry over its last four meetings with Football Bowl Subdivision opponents.MISSOURIS PASSING: Missouri quarterback Drew Lock ranks second in the SEC in yards passing and total offense. Jones says the Tigers also have the best overall receiving corps weve played all year as a group. Lock will be trying to avoid Tennessee cornerback Cam Sutton, who returned last week from a fractured ankle that sidelined him for six games. Sutton is Tennessees career leader in passes defended.INJURY ISSUES: Jones says Tennessee safety Todd Kelly Jr. -- the Vols leading tackler -- is doubtful due to an ankle injury. Jones also has said offensive linemen Dylan Wiesman and Chance Hall are questionable. Missouri center Samson Baileys status is uncertain due to an ankle injury.MISSOURIS KICKING WOES: Missouri kicker Tucker McCann is just 5 of 11 on field-goal attempts this season. McCann missed two field goals and two extra-point attempts against Vanderbilt last week. Walk-on Ben Tesson came in to kick Missouris final extra-point attempt of the game.---AP freelance writer Jade Washburn in Columbia, Missouri, contributed to this report.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25---Follow Steve Megargee at www.twitter.com/stevemegargee Jurrell Casey Titans Jersey . Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006. Bruce Matthews Youth Jersey .C. United of Major League Soccer. United chose the defender in the second round of the 2013 MLS re-entry draft. http://www.authentictitanspro.com/Derrick-henry-titans-jersey/ . "We have always prided ourselves on the way we play defence. Having two big pieces back is going to be a key for us moving forward for years to come," said Knighthawks head coach Mike Hasen. Amani Hooker Jersey . Klitschkos management company says the bout will be the Ukrainian fighters 25th world championship fight. The 1.83-meter (6-foot) Leapai defeated the previously unbeaten Denis Boytsov in November to become the WBOs mandatory challenger. Earl Campbell Jersey . A knee to the thigh might have stung him the most, but his sixth straight double-double made up for the brief burst of pain. Both Michigan State and St. Johns have to be thrilled about spending their respective Thanksgivings in the Bahamas, but the trip will have an entirely different level of euphoria for Spartans junior guard Lourawls Nairn.It will be special homecoming for Nairn, who was raised in Nassau before moving to the United States when he was 13 in order to pursue opportunities to play basketball.During the three-day Battle 4 Atlantis on Paradise Island, this will be the first and likely only opportunity some family members and friends of Nairns have or ever will see him play basketball in person.Its kind of amazing to be home, Nairn said. Just going back to the school today brought back memories when I was a kid of all the dreams I had of playing basketball in America.Michigan State head coach Tom Izzo called it a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Nairn, a player he has praised constantly since he arrived on campus, saying hes got wings following Sundays win over Florida Gulf Coast.Today we got a chance to go out in the community and visit his school and that was educational for our guys, Izzo said during a press conference on Tuesday. Hopefully we get a little basketball, a little enjoyment and a little education. I think its important for us to grow as a team while we are here.The first step for No. 24 Michigan State enjoying its basketball experience over the next three days will come at 7 p.m. on Wednesday against St. Johns in the first round of the tournament.St. Johns is 2-1 in the second season under Chris Mullin, the former star in the 1980s for the Red Storm who is back coaching his alma mater.ddddddddddddComing off a 92-86 loss at Minnesota on Friday, the Red Storm have so far relied heavily on the freshman backcourt combination of Marcus LoVett and Shamorie Ponds.LoVett is averaging 24.3 points a game for the first three games, while Ponds is averaging 17.3 points a game.Michigan State (2-2) has won two straight following season-opening losses to top-10 opponents Arizona and Kentucky, although it barely squeaked by Florida Gulf Coast at home on Sunday, winning 78-77.The Spartans have been led by freshman Miles Bridges (16.0 ppg), but the play of senior Eron Harris was a nice sight on Sunday against Florida Gulf Coast.With Florida Gulf Coast placing a lot of emphasis on containing Bridges, Harris stepped up with 31 points, going a perfect 6-for-6 from 3-point range.The winner will face either Baylor or Virginia Commonwealth in a semifinal on Thanksgiving Day.This will be the first appearance for both teams at the Battle 4 Atlantis, which is now in its sixth year of existence.Its tournaments like this that give you a chance to do a little bonding as a team, Izzo said. It gives you a chance to compare three days in a row, which is more like the NCAA tournament. It gives you a chance to face different kinds of teams. Win, lose or draw, its going to be a good experience for us. ' ' '
