MADISON, Wis. -- Nebraska has a prime-time opportunity to silence the doubters.To do that, the seventh-ranked Cornhuskers must prove themselves on Saturday against a team that has thrived all year long on proving its own detractors wrong.Tested by a rigorous schedule , No. 11 Wisconsin hopes to topple another top 10 opponent when Nebraska visits raucous Camp Randall Stadium.I feel like were the underdog every week, honestly. Weve been getting picked to lose I think probably 75 percent of our games, so were used to it, Nebraska quarterback Tommy Armstrong Jr. said.Im pretty sure they probably have us losing (to Wisconsin), but like any other week, were ready for them, Armstrong said.The leaders of the in the Big Ten West Division, the Cornhuskers (7-0, 4-0) are off to their best start in 15 seasons. But they could use a statement game on the road to pad their playoff resume. Their biggest win was a 35-32 win at home over then-No. 22 Oregon in Week 3.Otherwise, coach Mike Rileys team has drawn skeptics for closer-than-expected victories against what should have been overmatched opponents.Wisconsin (5-2, 2-2) knows what its like to be doubted.The Badgers have endured a tough schedule that has already included four top 10 teams and a trip to Iowa. Their two losses have come to Michigan and Ohio State by a combined 14 points.Now the Badgers have to prove themselves yet again. Their tough defense will play its first game without its leading tackler, inside linebacker Jack Cichy , who has a torn pectoral muscle.Were still going to need his presence on the sideline, outside linebacker Vince Biegel said. He was our energy to our defense, were still going to need him to be that person if we want to get where we want to be at the end of this season.With two losses already in conference, the easiest way for Wisconsin to return to the Big Ten title game is to win its final five games, starting with Nebraska.Other notes and things to watch on Saturday evening:WISCONSIN DEFENSEBesides Cichy, Wisconsin will also be without space-eating nose tackle Olive Sagapolu for a second straight game. But the Badgers have weathered injuries well under coordinator Justin Wilcox.Ryan Connelly and Leon Jacobs should be capable fill-ins for Cichy. Starting cornerback Derrick Tindal (right leg) has also been cleared after getting hurt last week against Iowa, and theres a chance that the secondary could get a boost with the return of third cornerback Natrell Jamerson. He has been out since Week 2 with a left leg injury.WESTERKAMP WORLDNebraskas offense should be replenished with the return of senior receiver Jordan Westerkamp, who has missed two games with a back injury. He has a team-high four touchdown catches.Were going to be stronger. I think that our guys can win and make plays, so I feel great about that group, Riley said.WELL-ROUNDED QBThe dual-threat Armstrong needs 11 yards of total offense to become the 11th player in Big Ten history to pass 10,000 for his career. Hes also 244 yards from setting the school career record for total offense. After missing the Ohio State game and J.T. Barrett because of a foot injury, Biegel is eager to get another shot at stopping a mobile signal-caller.WRINKLESCredit Wisconsin coach Paul Chryst with coming up with different ways to spice up the offense the last couple weeks. Two weeks ago against Ohio State, the Badgers dusted off the jet sweep with receiver Jazz Peavy and got good results. Last week against Iowa , Chryst used backup quarterback Bart Houston for a couple series against Iowa.Houston, who is more mobile than starter Alex Hornibrook, led the Badgers on a touchdown drive. The offensive-minded Chyrst probably has a new wrinkle or two ready for Nebraska, too.RED ZONEThe Badgers have been beset by problems in the red zone, where they have converted on 75 percent of drives inside the 20. Theyre ranked 112th out of 128th FBS teams. Wisconsin is also looking to clean up fumbles, penalties and other mistakes that slow the offense.Theres execution and those are things that weve got to own, Chryst said, and it can be the difference between winning and losing.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org---Follow Genaro Armas at: https://twitter.com/GArmasAPNike Air Force Καλυτερη Τιμη .

Westbrook has missed 27 games since having a procedure on Dec. 27 to deal with swelling in his injured right knee — the third operation on the knee in nine months.BALTIMORE -- The Army football team and its fans around the world can finally rejoice.No longer will they have to listen to barbs from Navy or lament another missed opportunity in the biggest game of the year.At long last, The Streak is over.Army ended a 14-year run of frustration against the Midshipmen, using an overpowering running game and opportunistic defense to carve out a long overdue 21-17 victory Saturday.With future commander in chief Donald Trump looking on, the Black Knights blew a 14-point lead before quarterback Ahmad Bradshaw scored on a 9-yard run with 6:42 left to give Army the win it had been waiting for since 2001.The Black Knights 14-game losing streak was the longest by either academy in a series that began in 1890. Army (7-5) now trails 60-50-7 in one of the nations historic rivalries.We heard for a long time here at West Point about the streak and all that, Army coach Jeff Monken said. It feels good to be a part of the team that put that to an end.Navy (9-4) was coming off a physical 34-10 loss to Temple in the American Athletic Conference title game and had only one week to prepare for Army with a new quarterback, sophomore Zach Abey, who was making his first college start. Abey took over Will Worth, who broke his foot against Temple.Abey ran for two touchdowns but passed for only 89 yards and was intercepted twice. Navy had four turnovers, three in the first half.I take a lot of responsibility for the game, Abey said. Obviously, in the first half I made some bad decisions. I feel horrible for the seniors.This senior class at Navy has accounted for 37 wins, most ever at the Academy over a four-year period. But theyll never forget this defeat.It hurts a little bit. It hurts a lot a bit, senior receiver Jamir Tillman said. We will take this loss into the offseason and use this as inspiration and run with it.That was a mantra chanted by the Black Knights for the past 14 years. Not anymore.Im just happy for our seniors, Monken said. The sense of pride that theyll have to go on, having beaten Navy, having beaten our biggest rival in their senior year. Its great for everybody in that locker room. I want them to enjoy it.By halftime, Army led 14-0 and owned a 14-1 advantage in first downs.After watching from the Navy side of the field before halftime, Trump visited the TV booth on the Army side in tthe third quarter.dddddddddddd The interview with the president-elect coincided with a big shift in momentum.In the second half we made some adjustments, and those helped us out pretty well, Navy defensive end Amos Mason said.Andy Davidson lost a fumble on the Black Knights first possession of the second half and the Midshipmen recovered at the Army 32. A screen pass for 16 yards set up a 1-yard touchdown run by Abey to get Navy to 14-7.Minutes later, the Midshipmen got a field goal after a replay overturned a lost fumble by Abey at the Army 11.A 41-yard touchdown run by Abey gave Navy the lead with 12:42 remaining. But Army wasnt done.The Black Knights put together a 12-play, 80-yard drive that lasted nearly seven minutes and ended with Bradshaws TD.It was a great feeling, the junior quarterback said. I cant describe it. It just felt amazing. Our team worked really hard for this to happen today.Bradshaw went 2 for 4 for 35 yards and an interception in Armys first win in Baltimore since 1944.Davidson ran for 87 yards and two first-half scores, and Kell Walker carried 16 times for 94 yards.NEVER QUITSome teams might fold after letting a two-touchdown lead vanish. Not Army.When they took the lead 17-14 ... maybe some teams get that look in their eye of doubt, or concern, Monken said. But I think our guys just knuckled down and were determined that they were going to win.FAREWELL VERNEThis was the final football game in the broadcasting career of 76-year-old Verne Lundquist. He was cheered by the crowd during a live shot on the scoreboard.THE TAKEAWAYArmy: The Black Knights appear to be on the upswing under Monken, now in his third season. Theyre headed to a bowl game and have a victory over Navy to celebrate.Navy: The Midshipmen are staggering to the end of the season after a 9-2 start. The loss to Temple was tough to take, but this was much, much worse.UP NEXTArmy: The Black Knights meet North Texas in the Heart of Dallas Bowl, Armys first postseason action since 2010.Navy: The Midshipmen face Louisiana Tech in the Armed Forces Bowl on Dec. 23. It will be Navys 13th bowl appearance in the last 14 years.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 ' ' '
