DUBLIN -- Dedrick Mills knew he just had to finish the play when given a chance to atone for a fumble in his first college game.He made up for the mistake by also finishing Georgia Techs comeback win.Mills 4-yard touchdown run with 35 seconds remaining capped a drive that included two big completions from Justin Thomas and lifted Georgia Tech to a 17-14 win over Boston College on Saturday.Mills, a freshman from Ware County High School in Waycross, Georgia, said he had to regroup after fumbling in the third quarter.I kind of got down but Justin kept coming back up to me and saying `Hey man, youve got to forget that last play, Mills said. ... I got my chance again. I just had to finish the play.Thomas threw two key completions on the go-ahead drive. The senior passed to Qua Searcy for 22 yards on a fourth-and-19 play and found Ricky Jeune for 26 yards on third down.It felt like a movie, Thomas said. We stuck together. We kept our heads up high and we found a way to do it.Georgia Tech (1-0, 1-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) won its first game played outside of the United States in the 124-year history of the program. Mills, who led the Yellow Jackets with 68 yards rushing, was especially impressed by the dramatic setting.In high school we had a good fan base, Mills said. The stadium was kind of big but wasnt that big. Coming over here, being overseas for the first time with a big crowd, I havent played in anything like that.The Yellow Jackets only touchdowns came on their first and last drives of the game. Backup quarterback Matthew Jordans 3-yard scoring run capped the opening drive. Boston College held Georgia Techs spread-option attack to 240 yards, including 121 yards rushing.Its tough, said Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson. I tell you, theyre as good defensively as anybody weve played, including Clemson or anybody. Theyre good and we had a hard time getting anything going consistently.It was a crushing loss for Boston College (0-1, 0-1 ACC), which was winless in conference games in 2015 and has lost nine straight overall. The Eagles took a 14-7 lead on quarterback Patrick Towles 6-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter.There was a lot of improvement and there were a lot of good things were going on out on the field, said Coach Steve Addazio. We just need to learn how to close that game out. We had good opportunities in the red zone. We missed two field goals. You cant do that. Thats two opportunities when you have limited possessions in the game.Towles, a graduate transfer from Kentucky making his first start for the Eagles, threw an interception and lost a fumble in the first half.I know, for a fact, that this football team will win a lot of football games this year, Towles said. Its not going to be more of the same.Harrison Butkers 39-yard field goal cut the lead to four points.Jon Hillmans 73-yard touchdown run on the Eagles first play of the second half tied the game at 7-7. Hillman ran for 102 yards on 17 carries.The game, which had a 7:30 a.m. EDT kickoff, was played through rain, leaving the grass turf at Aviva Stadium slippery.THE TAKEAWAYGeorgia Tech: It was a confidence boost for the defense, as Georgia Tech won despite ending scoring at least 20 points in 21 straight conference games. The streak, which began in 2013, was the second-longest by a Power 5 team, behind TCUs 22-game run.Boston College: The Eagles defense, which led the nation in 2015 by allowing only 254.3 yards per game, looked strong again before Georgia Techs go-ahead drive. Colton Lichtenberg had a 43-yard field goal attempt blocked in the second quarter, and he missed a 35-yarder late in the third. Addazio called for the second attempt instead of going for the first down on fourth-and-1 from the Georgia Tech 18.UP NEXTGeorgia Tech: The Yellow Jackets will face FCS in-state rival Mercer for the first time in 75 years. The first game in Georgia Tech history came against Mercer on Nov. 5, 1892, and the teams last game came in 1938. Mercer revived its program, which had been dormant for 72 years, in 2013.Boston College: The Eagles will take a break from the ACC schedule when they look for their ninth straight win over in-state rival UMass.

After Mondays hard-fought loss, the wait seemed longer than usual.

Lombardi, the grandson of former Green Bay Hall of Fame coach Vince Lombardi, has been an offensive assistant on Sean Paytons New Orleans staff since 2007.ANAHEIM, California - Josh Johnson insists he isnt injured. He says the triceps inflammation which shelved him for six weeks earlier this season is a non-issue. The troublesome tendinitis in his left knee, mentioned this week by manager John Gibbons and repeated by catcher J.P. Arencibia, isnt the reason Johnsons struggled so badly. “Ive had it since I was 11 years old so its nothing new,” said Johnson. “Sometimes itll be sore but actually it feels as best it has all year so not one bit.” Barring the unforeseen, Johnson will be getting the ball on Tuesday in Seattle. To add to the woes of his personal six-game losing streak, Johnson is scheduled to line up against “King” Felix Hernandez. There he was, more than three hours before the start of Saturdays game against the Angels, getting in his usual bullpen work in between starts. Johnson made a footing adjustment his last time out, throwing from the extreme first base side of the mound. The change can be measured in a matter of inches but for a pitcher accustomed to routine, it feels like a longer move. “I think that maybe just getting comfortable on that side of the rubber,” said Johnson, “thats a big part of it. We worked on it and threw some curveballs today, finally throwing them for strikes and being able to bounce it. Just much tighter spin. The slider was good and tried to take a little bit off the split, so it was a good bullpen; a really good bullpen.” Johnson suggested Saturdays side season was much better than his recent bullpens, expressing hope that his work would translate into better results in a game. He needs them. In Johnsons last six starts, all losses on his personal record, hes allowed 28 earned runs in 28 innings for an even 9.00 ERA. Dating back seven starts, Johnson has allowed multiple runs in the inning in which he allows his first base runner of the game. In his last two outings, losses to Houston and the Los Angeles Angels, hes spotted opponents four runs in the first inning. The statistics are hideous but to Johnsoons credit hes not hiding from them.dddddddddddd Inquiring minds gather around his locker stall and hes willing to oblige. The numbers, the reminders, they take a toll but he insists during a game he isnt distracted. “Once Im out of the game or in between innings you get pretty frustrated but youve just got to push all that aside and find ways to get outs,” said Johnson. “Its been a really tough go.” “I think the biggest thing is understanding hes still one of the best in this game,” said Arencibia, whos watched Johnson stumble up close. “This game will knock you down to where, mentally, it will drag you around and its hard enough to play when youre feeling great; when your confidence is down its a lot tougher too. Hes an unbelievable pitcher, works hard, first-class guy. I think its one of those things, I think this game tests you, everyone has struggles in their careers.” Johnson has gone from a pitcher likely to make a high eight figure salary on a multi-year contract, to a guy who may have to accept a one-year qualifying offer, to a man who may find himself on the free agent scrap heap looking for an incentive-laden deal. The Blue Jays, in the business of winning even if they havent been doing enough of it, are wrestling with whats best for the ball club. Do you do right by Johnson and give him the opportunity every fifth day to improve his stock, even if, every fifth day, his stock drops further? Do you take advantage of off days and push Johnson back, giving him more days of work in between appearances and fewer starts the rest of the way? Or do you pull the plug altogether? The answer, at the moment, isnt obvious. Johnson, for his part, says hes looking forward to his next start. Well take him at his word. Typically laid back, Johnson acknowledges he sometimes thinks about joining the infamous highlight reels frequented by the likes of Carlos Zambrano. If all else fails, break something. “I want to really bad,” said Johnson. “Maybe after the last start I might have.” Youth NFL Jerseys Wholesale Wholesale NFL Autographed Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China Cheap Stitched Jerseys Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Camo China NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys 2019 ' ' '
