MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- Kansas coach David Beaty is still waiting for that first celebration on the plane ride back home.Beaty was the receivers coach under Mark Mangino the last time the Jayhawks won a road game in 2009. When Beaty was named the teams head coach last season, he inherited a 30-game road losing streak.Kansas will try to summon the will to avoid that streak hitting 40 on Saturday at No. 14 West Virginia (6-1, 3-1 Big 12, No. 20 CFP).To have a chance, Beaty said his players must start fast because they tend to fade as the game goes on. The Jayhawks have been held under 10 points in two of their last three contests.Given our roster and just the amount of depth that we have, at times youre going to get wore down a little bit. We understand that, Beaty said.Despite the teams struggles, including a 56-3 loss at Oklahoma last week , Beaty said he is sticking with Montell Cozart as his starting quarterback. Cozart has thrown four interceptions in the past two weeks.The Jayhawks (1-7, 0-5) have lost 17 straight Big 12 games. Theyll have a chance to severely damage West Virginias conference title hopes.The Mountaineers are coming off their first loss , 37-20 at Oklahoma State. They still face No. 12 Oklahoma and No. 13 Baylor at home and Texas and Iowa State on the road.Coach Dana Holgorsen is simply looking for improvements on offense, no matter the opponent this week, after the Mountaineers were held to their second-lowest point total of the season against the Cowboys.We have to score, Holgorsen said. We just have to be in the right frame of mind, and we will be this Saturday.West Virginia has held four straight opponents to under 400 yards of offense after failing to do that in the first three games of the season. The Mountaineers have allowed 16 touchdowns all season, one less than Baylor.Im happy with where we are at, said West Virginia defensive coordinator Tony Gibson. Being the defensive coach, I think whether it is conference titles, national titles, whatever it may be, thats the way you win championships. Were not talking about that in our building. Thats a long way away. We have to be able to beat Kansas, so we have to prepare to get ourselves ready to go.---Some other things to know as the Jayhawks and Mountaineers prepare to play at night:TURNOVER TROUBLES: Kansas is last in the nation in turnovers and next-to-last in turnover margin. West Virginia quarterback Skyler Howard had a fumble and two interceptions against Oklahoma State after West Virginias offense had no turnovers in the two previous games.GIMPY SHELL: Last year at Kansas, West Virginia had three 100-yard rushers for the first time since 1969. One of those was Rushel Shell, who tweaked an ankle against Oklahoma State last week and is listed as day-to-day. Teammates Justin Crawford and freshman Kennedy McKoy are expected to get most of the carries again if Shell cant go.DINEEN OUT: Kansas linebacker Joe Dineen was declared done for the season this week with a hamstring injury. He played in the first three games before the injury relegated him to the bench.FAN SUPPORT: Dineen and several other Kansas players shaved their heads this week to support a 7-year-old boy with cancer. Cole Hayden, who was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called undifferentiated sarcoma, is the son of the teams academic and career counselor.BECHT BACK: Former West Virginia standout tight end Anthony Becht will return to Morgantown for the first time as a network color analyst. On Friday night he was scheduled to attend a roast in Morgantown for retired Mountaineers coach Don Nehlen.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.orgTres Barrera Nationals Jersey .

Im starting to move out of his shadow a little bit, but theres a long way to go, quipped Jamie. Andys had a great year reaching three Grand Slam finals. Winning Wimbledon was huge. He couldnt win this one but I did, so yeah, get it up you, Andy!Jamies comments may have been lighthearted ?-- I havent looked at my phone actually since we came off court, so see what Andy says, he later said with a mischievous grin in his press conference -- but throughout his career he has had to deal with seeing his brother take most of the limelight.Over the last few years, seeing him do so well all the time, Ive been wanting to have some of that success, as well, Jamie added. I think the last 18 months have started to really show what I can do on the tennis court. I hope that it will continue.The brothers from Dunblane, Scotland were actually next to each other in the locker room at Flushing Meadows this year, before Andys shock quarterfinal singles defeat to Kei Nishikori,?and will reunite next week to continue their Davis Cup title defence in the semifinal against Argentina in Glasgow.Weve been able to do a lot of amazing things in our lives onn a tennis court, said Jamie.dddddddddddd I guess when youre kind of living in a moment you dont always think about all that stuff.But if you take a moment and look at it, yeah, it is amazing what we have been able to do from a country of no history of tennis at all. I get quite emotional talking about it.Now a three-time major champion just like his brother, Jamie beat Andy in the race to win a first Grand Slam by claiming the mixed doubles title with Jelena Jankovic at Wimbledon in 2007.However, he tasted bitter defeats with then-partner John Peers in the mens doubles finals at the All England Club and the US Open last summer.The pair went their separate ways and Jamie joined forces with Soares at the start of this year -- they proved to be an instant hit, winning the Australian Open in Melbourne.I felt like Bruno was the guy that was going to help me achieve what I wanted to achieve on the doubles court, said Jamie. It was still a big decision to commit to not playing with John because we had a lot of success.I feel like Ive vindicated my decision, sitting here four Grand Slams later and weve won two of them.Jamie said he and Soares arrived in New York with a point to prove after both enduring a disappointing Olympics --?they are now the first mens doubles team to win multiple majors in a calendar year since the Bryan brothers in 2013.When asked if they could see each other staying together for a long time, a smiling Soares quickly said I hope so prompting laughter among the media. Cant do much more. Keep him with me. ' ' '
