MANHATTAN, Kan. -- Connecticut only managed to make two big runs against Kansas State on Sunday.It took both of them to win.Katie Lou Samuelson scored 26 points, Napheesa Collier had 22 and the top-ranked Huskies rode the momentum of a 17-0 surge in the first half and a 10-0 charge in the second to a 75-58 victory over the Wildcats at sold-out Bramlage Coliseum.Samuelson hit six 3-pointers and Kia Nurse added 13 points for the Huskies (9-0), who ran their winning streak to 84 straight games, six shy of their 90-game stretch from 2008-10. It was also their 27th consecutive road win.We passed the ball to Lou a lot, so that always helps, when you pass it to Katie Lou, UConn coach Geno Auriemma said, trying to explain the game-changing runs that pushed his team to victory.We were able to get out in transition and get Kansas States defense moving before they could settle into a defense, Auriemma said. That was the game plan. And in the first quarter, we forced some turnovers, we rebounded the ball, ran our transition game, and our players are very good at finding Katie Lou.Breanna Lewis had 18 points for the Wildcats (9-1), who were off to their best start since 2008.I definitely had jitters. Ive never had an opportunity to play in front of so many people, said Karyla Middlebrook, who scored 11 for Kansas State. But I dont use that as an excuse for the two early turnovers I had. You have to turn those jitters into positive energy to help the team.Kansas State actually led 4-2 in the opening minutes before UConn ripped off a 17-0 charge that forced Kansas State coach Jeff Mittie to burn two timeouts. Samuelson did most of the damage, knocking down three 3-pointers, as the Wildcats missed seven consecutive field-goal attempts.They move the ball better than any team in the country, Mittie said. They do a great job of getting the basketball to Lou, she has a great high release and shes a great shooter.The Wildcats finally got things under control, and even made a charge of their own to get within 45-31 at the break. But when they closed to 51-40 on a 3-pointer by Kaylee Page with about seven minutes left in the third quarter, the Huskies answered with 10 straight points.That spurt, along with their big first-quarter run, was too much for Kansas State to overcome.UConn shot nearly 50 percent from the field (30 of 61) and had a big advantage on the boards, while the Wildcats struggled to deal with the Huskies pressure. They turned it over 16 times.I thought our group in the third quarter created some turnovers, created some opportunities, Mittie said. Unfortunately we missed some opportunities to get it to single digits.SELLOUT CROWDWhen I heard it was sold-out, Auriemma said, I thought, `Thats the way its supposed to be. They have a really good team, weve never been out this way before. So you know what? Were going to go in there and its going to be an unbelievable environment.BIG PICTUREUConn proved again that its depth isnt an issue, only playing six while building its commanding lead early in the game. The Huskies left Saniya Chong at home after she took an elbow during their win over Notre Dame and experienced concussion-like symptoms. Hopefully shell be OK, Auriemma said.Kansas State appeared to let its nerves win in the first quarter, when turnovers and poor shooting conspired to put the Wildcats in a 25-8 hole. But they also showed some composure in battling back, which is sure to encourage Mittie as he continues to build the program.UP NEXTUConn heads back to the XL Center to play No. 12 Ohio State on Dec. 19.Kansas State wraps its three-game homestand against Princeton next Sunday.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Lamar Jackson has become a leading Heisman Trophy contender on a Louisville team that has risen to No. 3 in the nation. The tough part for the Cardinals, now, is to stay composed on the road to a possible league title and shot at a national championship.You know, its crazy but it isnt anything to me, Jackson said after the Cardinals 63-20 shellacking of Florida State, which fell 11 places to No. 13. You have to stay humble. Stay humble and stay calm. Everything is calm to me.Louisvilles big Atlantic Coast Conference win, however, earned a seven-spot jump in the latest Associated Press Top 25 and has the Cardinals (3-0) in the title discussion. The ranking matches their Nov. 5, 2006 standing during Petrinos first stint with the Cardinals.I couldnt picture any of the wins and how its going right now, running back Brandon Radcliff said. We work so hard that I feel this is the way we wanted it and we planned to do it.Jackson meanwhile is at the top of the Heisman conversation following a stellar game against the Seminoles.He collected five more touchdowns, four running, to raise his season total to 18. Jackson also completed 13 of 20 passes for 216 yards and ran 17 times for 146, including an impressive 47-yard TD run that led former Virginia Tech QB and NFL free agent Michael Vick to tweet that Jackson is better than he was at the same point in college.Yet for all the praise and Heisman talk, the sophomore was pretty tough on himself afterward. Noting seven incompletions and an end-zone intercepttion, he gave his performance a D and downplayed the speculation about the award given to the nations best player.ddddddddddddI try not to pay attention to that, Jackson said. I try to keep that out of my mind. Im not the type to get hyped. ... Im just chill.Petrino also suggested that the coaching staff will try to keep players egos in check during video sessions. Next up for Louisville is Saturdays non-conference meeting at Marshall.The Cardinals have lost four in a row to the Thundering Herd, which means they cant look past them toward their next high-profile challenge on Oct. 1 at defending ACC champion Clemson. The Tigers (3-0) remained fifth after Saturdays 59-0 rout of South Carolina State.We will be very critical, very hard on them and they need to be hard on themselves, Petrino said. You need to watch the video and see if you utilized your technique right. ... Well go out and run and get right back into our normal routine.Normalcy might have new meaning with Louisville now a top-three team and on everybodys radar. But running back Brandon Radcliff believes the same approach that got the Cardinals there will help them keep their lofty status in perspective.Radcliff added, were a serious football team and were not going to take anybody lightly.---This story has been corrected to show that Florida State is No. 13, not No. 1.---AP college football website: collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
