With chaos ensuing in the college football world last week with half of the nations Top 10 -- including the Nos. 2, 3, and 4 teams -- all losing, No. 1 Alabama delivered a message as it emerged as the only undefeated team from a Power 5 conference.And that message?The message is when you win, you control your own destiny, Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban said. When you dont, you allow someone else to determine what your fates going to be. We have all these teams that lost one game now.Somebody has to decide who gets to do what.Top-ranked Alabama (10-0) hosts Chattanooga (8-2) on Saturday (7 p.m. ET, ESPN2) at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa.Almost, but not quite, overlooked as the upsets of No. 2 Clemson, No. 3 Michigan, No. 4 Ohio State, No. 8 Texas A&M, and No. 9 Auburn rolled in during the afternoon and evening last weekend was that the Crimson Tide clinched the SEC West.The 52-3 rout of Mississippi State coupled with Auburns loss at Georgia left them with a two-game cushion in the standings with only one SEC game left on the card. No matter what happens now, Alabama is a lock to play in the SEC championship game in Atlanta on Dec. 3.Also, no matter how it fares against Auburn in the Iron Bowl, the Tide looks to be heavily favored to beat the East winner -- either Florida or Tennessee -- in the title game and likely advance to the College Football Playoff. But although the Tide has overcome a loss to capture three of its four national titles under Saban, the coach wants no slip-ups down the stretch.If you put yourself in that situation, you let somebody else decided what your fate is, Saban said. If you take care of your business and do things the way you need to do it, then maybe you can control your own destiny in the way you play.Thats certainly much more the way we would like for it to be from our perspective. Weve got lots of tough games we have to play between now and then. We want to take it one game at a time and focus on improving.Alabama is on a 22-game winning streak, the longest of Sabans tenure and the third-longest in program history.Thats something that we take and try and keep going, Alabama wide receiver ArDarius Stewart said. Coach talks about it every week, all week, that you cant get complacent and you have to do all the little things right. Thats something we take pride in and try to do every week.The Tide put up impressive numbers against Mississippi State. Freshman quarterback Jalen Hurts became the first quarterback in Alabama history to throw for 300 yards (347) and rush for 100 yards (100) in the same game as he accounted for 447 yards of total offense, third-best in school history.Stewart became only the sixth player in program history to have three touchdown receptions in one game, and tight end O.J. Howard caught six passes for a season-high 77 yards with four of receptions resulting in first downs.We made a lot of explosive plays on offense, and executed in the passing game more efficiently and effectively, Saban said. Defensively, we made stops when we needed to when they made plays.Meanwhile, Chattanooga was losing for only the second time this season, a 36-28 setback to Wofford that dropped the Mocs five spots to No. 12 in the STATS media poll.Chattanooga is looking forward to the trip to Tuscaloosa.Our guys will be excited to play, Mocs coach Russ Huesman said. I think everybody knows this is the best team in the country. Our players know they have tremendous players, and I know they have tremendous coaches, very smart people there.Watching film, theyre not only athletic, but they do things right in all phases of the game. Its going to be a tough test, and were looking forward to it.Alabama won all 12 meetings, including 49-0 in the last encounter in 2013. Ervin Santana Jersey .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable. Bert Blyleven Jersey . The Oilers come in having lost five in a row (0-4-1) and 16 of their last 20 games, dropping a 2-1 decision to the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday. http://www.authentictwinsgear.com/twins-justin-morneau-jersey/ .com) - The Edmonton Oilers and Vancouver Canucks both take aim at their first wins of the season on Saturday, as the Canucks open their home slate at Rogers Arena. Harmon Killebrew Jersey . John Lucas, signed as a mentor for rookie Trey Burke, showed he can score if required, scoring 12 points of his 16 points in the second quarter as Utah built an 18-point lead. Miguel Sano Jersey . They were putting most of their energy into a record-setting offensive display. RIO DE JANEIRO -- Simone Biles spent Sunday morning in the warm-up gym thinking not of history but perfection.When it didnt happen -- and really, it never does in gymnastics anymore -- the 19-year-old star settled for a pretty sweet consolation prize: a third gold medal in Rio.Twisting and flipping through the air with explosive precision, Biles easily captured gold in the womens vault final on Sunday. Her two-vault average of 15.966 was more than .7 better than silver medalist Maria Paseka of Russia and bronze medalist Giulia Steingruber of Switzerland. The margin between first and second was greater than second and eighth, a symbol of the canyon Biles created between herself and her peers.Biles triumph is the first in the Olympics by an American woman on vault, and her first vault title in a major international competition. Its heady territory, though Biles wasnt quite so thrilled when her feet moved just a touch on the landing of her Amanar.I just wanted to stick a vault so badly here and it didnt happen, Biles said. I can be disappointed about that but I cant be disappointed with the gold.Good idea considering there may be more on the way. Biles is in the balance beam final on Monday and the floor exercise final on Tuesday, events in which she happens to be the reigning world champion. The chance of her leaving Rio going an unprecedented 5-for-5 is looking more inevitable than impossible.Not that Biles is getting ahead of herself. While shes aware of her growing celebrity inside the athletes village, Biles and coach Aimee Boorman are trying to remain in the comfortable rhythm Biles and the rest of her Final Five teammates follow during any other meet. It wasnt hard to keep Biles engaged heading into the event which Boorman thought would be Biles best when she reached the elite level in 2013.When she first entered the elite world we thought `maybe youll make a world team and be a vault specialist, Boorman said. She never won her gold at worlds but now shes got her Olympic gold.Other takeaways from the first day of event finals inside the Rio Olympic Arena.BRITAINS BREAKTHROUGH: During the first 116 years of the Olympics, Great Britain won exactly zero gold medals in gymnastics of any variety. Max Whitlock gave his home country two in the span of an hour. The 23-year-old edged Brazils Diego Hypolito in the mens floor exercise then beat teammate and friendly rival Louis Smith on pommel horse a short time later.The triumph marked a high point in a renaissance that began in 2008 when Smith earnned a bronze on pommel horse in Beijing.dddddddddddd The Brits added a team bronze in London four years ago and the momentum has continued to build. Smiths silver gave him three on pommels in his career and Whitllocks sublime routine had the teammates standing side by side on the podium as the Union Jack was raised and God Save the Queen played over the loudspeakers.It was really cool to see two flags rise up there, Whitlock said. It was just an amazing feeling.MUSTAFINAS METTLE: Aliya Mustafina of Russia defended her gold medal on uneven bars, edging American Madison Kocian in a taut final. Mustafinas score of 15.9 was just ahead of Kocians 15.833. The difference came down to difficulty. Mustafinas start value was a .1 higher than Kocians, giving the former world all-around champion her seventh Olympic medal.The 21-year-old draped the Russian flag over her shoulders in victory while celebrating a draining comeback from injuries that threatened to derail her career. Mustafina took third in the all-around last week behind Biles and Aly Raisman, calling the Americans unbeatable. Asked if she considers herself the same on uneven bars, Mustafina smiled and said well, now I think yes.Sophie Scheder of Germany earned bronze. Three-time Olympic gold medalist Gabby Douglas, the all-around champion in London, finished seventh in what is likely her final competition.HISTORY MAKERS: Oksana Chusovitina has no plans to make her seventh Olympics her last. The 41-year-old plans to keep training through Tokyo 2020 following a seventh-place finish on vault. She blew kisses to the crowd during a video tribute as she made her way off the floor. It looked like she was saying good-bye. Turns out, it was more like see you next time.It was very simple, Chusovitina said. I woke up in the morning and bingo the decision was there.Dipa Karmakar of India just missed out on bronze in vault, remarkable considering shes the first Indian woman to compete in the Olympics.NADDOURS REDEMPTION: Alex Naddour became the first American since 1984 to earn a medal on pommel horse when he came in a close third behind Smith on pommel horse. It served as a bit of redemption for Naddour. He was an alternate four years ago in London and struggled on floor exercise in the team final last week as the U.S. finished fifth. He washed his uniform in baby detergent so he would be reminded of his infant daughter Lilah.
