FFAs disciplinary council suggeested Amor may have touched Fielding with more force than he intended while in a heightened
FCS Playoffs Second RoundThe Matchup -- Chattanooga (9-3) at No. 5 seed Sam Houston State (11-0)Kickoff -- 3 p.m. ET at Bowers Stadium (12,593) in Huntsville, TexasCoverage -- ESPN3Series -- First meetingPlayers to Watch -- Chattanooga: QB Alejandro Bennifield (172 of 262, 2,173 yards, 23 TDs, 7 INTs; 87 carries, 262 yards, 5 TDs), RB Derrick Craine (134 carries, 808 yards, 9 TDs), DE Keionta Davis (39 TT, 8.5 sacks, 6 QB hurries); Sam Houston State: QB Jeremiah Briscoe (282 of 419, 4,096 yards, 52 TDs, 7 INTs), WR Yedidiah Louis (65 receptions, 977 yards, 11 TDs), DE P.J. Hall (45 TT, 21 TFL, 9.5 sacks)The Skinny -- Sam Houston State is the top-ranked team in the STATS FCS Top 25. Chattanooga has twice beaten a No. 1, but both times at home -- 21-14 over Furman in 1984 and 33-31 over Marshall in 1993. The subplot is Sam Houston has the No. 2 passing offense (387 ppg) and No. 1 scoring offense (54.2 ppg) in the FCS and Chattanooga is No. 1 against the pass (147.2 ypg). Its been 50 years since the Mocs last played in Texas. The Southern Conference squad will arrive off a 45-14 demolition of Weber State in the first round of the playoffs. Bennifield, a mobile left-hander, is an efficient signal caller and works with underrated receivers, but the Mocs are at their best when Craine and the offensive line are commanding a physical run game. Despite their ability to defend the pass, the Mocs have only five interceptions. They will try to stop Briscoe, who leads the nation in passing yards and is four touchdown passes shy of the FCS single-season record of 56. Hes been invited to the announcement of the 2016 STATS FCS Walter Payton Award. The Southland Conference champion Bearkats have overwhelmed opponents with a 379-93 scoring advantage in the first half of games. Its not all offense as they placed Hall, whos invited to the announcement of the 2016 STATS FCS Buck Buchanan Award, LB Justin Johnson and CB Darion Flowers on the All-Southland first team. Their return game also is adept at flipping field position on their opponents.Up Next -- The winner will play either New Hampshire (8-4) or No. 4 seed James Madison (10-1) in the quarterfinals Dec. 9 or 10.Prediction -- It may not be the Bearkats usual offensive explosion, but their speed will still be too much for the Mocs.

The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Lions have not announced the hiring, which was first reported by ESPN. 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. Adelaide United coach Guillermo Amor must wait to learn whether hell spend more time on the sidelines for his outburst during the Reds round-seven 3-1 A-League loss to Perth.Football Federation Australias independent disciplinary and ethics committee sat in Sydney on Monday night but reserved its decision on whether to further punish Amor, who last weekend served his mandatory one-match ban for unsporting conduct towards a match official after being banished to nib Stadiums stands.Whether or not the committee throws the book at the Barcelona legend hinges on the force with which it believes Amor touched fourth official Adam Fielding as he protested a controversial decision that resulted in the Glorys second goal.The incident followed referee Jarred Gilletts decision to award Andy Keoghs 68th-minute goal straight after Glory captain Rostyn Griffiths was perceived to have fouled Reds goalkeeper Eugene Galekovic.With no video evidence available, testimonies from each of the protagonists are key.Fielding submitted a report stating the feeling of the contact was not a tap, it was also not enough to push me over. It was sufficient to make me take a step forward.The usually mild-mannered Amor strongly denied pushing Fielding, arguing he merely touched him to gain his attention so he could alert Gillett to the apparent error.FFAs disciplinary council suggeested Amor may have touched Fielding with more force than he intended while in a heightened emotional state.ddddddddddddAmor, represented by Reds general manager of football Ante Kovacevic, told the committee he did not understand why hed been sent off and was confused as Fielding followed him to the bench to see through Gilletts expulsion.If I had understood at that point, or even after the game, that I had committed bad behaviour I would have gone straight to the referees changing rooms to say sorry or ask for an explanation, Amor said through a translator.Video footage directly after the incident showed the frustrated coach picking up his jacket and water bottle before wagging his finger at Fielding and saying words to the effect of you are not professional.Assistant coach Jacobo Ramallo said pushing a match official would be completely out of character for last seasons A-League coach of the year.Its difficult for me to imagine him doing this, even to think about it, Ramallo said.Being polite is easy when youre winning but he was losing every game (at the start of) last year and he was a gentleman.Amor said he will accept whatever decision is handed down in the next couple of days.Adelaide host Wellington on Sunday.
