Eight regions emerged victorious after three days of brutal brawling in the battle to come out on top in the Overwatch World Cup.Despite being split up from their professional teams to compete with other players of their country of origin, the strongest well-renowned players made it through the group stages but not without some scratches to their pride. The surviving teams will now face the elimination stage at this weeks BlizzCon.Sixteen regions split into four groups, and the top two teams from each would advance to the bracket stage. In Group A, with Sweden, Spain, Brazil, and Canada, Sweden was the favorite to win. They were dominant on the first two days. Having Kevin TviQ Lindstr?m from one of Europes best teams, Rogue, was a huge boon for the Swedish squad as he was leaving a trail of bodies behind against teams like Canada and Brazil. On the final day however, Spain upset the group by taking the first spot from Sweden, leaving them in second place heading into elminations. Spain looked a little uncoordinated at first, but they had a powerful lineup with Sergei Winghaven Torras from REUNITED, Jonathan harryhook Tejedor Rua from EnVyUs as some of their core powerhouses.Group B was expected to be close, with Russia, USA, and Germany in a brawl for the top two spots. Chile was expected to be behind the other three regions, but the big surprise was Germany. They looked solid on paper, but uncoordinated onstage. On the last day, Russias George ShaDowBurn Guschcha faced off against USAs Brandon Seagull Larned in an epic showdown as both players have proven themselves as top Genji players, but ShaDowBurn chopped down the American lineup more than Seagull could do the same to the Russian team. Russia emerged victorious taking the first spot, with USA following them out of the group stages as No. 2.South Korea versus Finland tells the entire story of Group C, being two of the strongest teams at the Overwatch World Cup on paper, but South Koreas dominance put themselves on a level entirely above Finland. South Koreas Gong Miro Jin Hyuk from Lunatic-Hai was one of the brightest players on the team with near perfect Winston play, and had a heavy hand in dismantling the rest of the group in conjunction with the rest of his team.After a long weekend of games, Group D could only stand to make the day longer as they entered a three-way tiebreaker between China, France, and Thailand. To settle the score, these teams had to go through a grueling round-robin on Nepal until one team was 2-0, and another team went 1-1 which happened to be China and France respectively. This sent Thailand and Singapore home but with colorful personalities on camera, spectators will not likely forget them.On Thursday, the Overwatch World Cup will resume at noon PT with all of the quarterfinal and both semifinal matches, featuring the top eight regions: Russia, France, Spain, Finland, South Korea, the United States, China, and Sweden.

Aduriz headed home Markel Susaetas cross in the sixth minute to open the scoring at San Mames Stadium.

Coach Tom Thibodeau says the former MVP will probably start travelling with the team in the next few weeks.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Urban Meyer seemed to be feeling pretty good about his team in the week leading up to Ohio States game against Nebraska.Despite three previous weeks of tight games -- including a stinging loss -- spotty offense and a general lack of explosiveness, the Buckeyes coach exuded confidence.No, Ive been going to acting school, Meyer said. I was a mess.The Buckeyes expected another tight tussle with the 10th-ranked Huskers. Instead, they scored one of the most dominant victories in the storied history of the program.Curtis Samuel had 178 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns, including a 75-yard touchdown reception on Ohio States first play of the second half, and the sixth-ranked Buckeyes pounded Nebraska 62-3 on Saturday night.There was a sense of urgency about everything we did, defensive end Sam Hubbard said. If somebody made a mistake in practice we did that rep. It was just intense focus all week long.The Buckeyes (8-1, 5-1 Big Ten, No. 6 AP) scored more points than Ohio State ever has against a top-10 team and handed the Cornhuskers (7-2, 4-2 Big Ten, No. 9 AP) their most lopsided loss since 2004.I didnt see this one coming, Meyer said. It is a little relief to know that right now I saw some explosiveness that we kind of have been lacking in some positions.Damon Webb got it started with a 36-yard interception return for a touchdown on Nebraskas first drive of the game. J.T. Barrett led three long touchdown drives, including a 15-play, 85-yarder that ended with 1-yard jump TD pass to Samuel with 3 seconds left in the half.Everything was clicking. The run game. The pass game, Samuel said. Everything was going great tonight.The Cornhuskers were playing as a top-10 team in November for the first time since 2010, but proved to still be a long way from the elites in the Big Ten. Nebraska is still in the Big Ten West race, but a loss to Wisconsin last week means the Huskers will need help.That was real bad, and were all responsible for it, and Ohio State played really well, Nebraska coach Mike Riley said.Nebraska lost quarterback Tommy Armstrong to a scary head injury in the second quarter, when the senior slammed the side of his helmet on the turf after being knocked out of bounds.dddddddddddd Armstrong was taken from the stadium in an ambulance, but returned to the sideline in sweats in the third quarter.Riley said it was too early to determine Armstrongs status for next week.Ryker Fyfe relieved Armstrong and finished 5 for 18 for 52 yards.THE TAKEAWAYNebraska: The Cornhuskers rode a fairly easy first-half schedule into the top 10 and gave their fans some hope that maybe they could be in the mix for a College Football Playoff spot down the stretch. Not happening. The loss was the Huskers most lopsided since a 70-10 beating by Texas Tech in 2004. Year Two under Riley for the Huskers represents a step forward, not a giant leap.The game came out of the blue to me, Riley said.Ohio State: Meyer has answered so many questions about getting the ball to Samuel more often over the last few weeks that he has been chuckling at them. Whether it was by design or not, Samuel had his best game since the opener against Bowling Green, getting 13 touches by the middle of the third quarter. By then no more were needed.Coach Meyer knows what hes doing, Samuel said. Hes going to get me the ball the number of times he feels the need to. I just need to take advantage of the opportunities get for myself.PICK-SIXESWebbs pick-six was Ohio States fifth of the season, setting a school record. In the third quarter, Malik Hooker added another one from 48 yards out.POLL IMPLICATIONSNebraska: The Huskers are likely to plummet when the new AP rankings come out Sunday and the playoff rankings are updated Tuesday.Ohio State: The Buckeyes were impressive enough to at least consider having them jump ahead of undefeated Washington in both the AP and playoff rankings.NEXTNebraska: The Cornhuskers return home to play Minnesota, which is tied atop the West standings with Nebraska and Wisconsin.Ohio State: The Buckeyes face Maryland in the first of two straight away from Ohio Stadium. Ohio States next home game is Nov. 26 against No. 2 Michigan. ' ' '
