APPLICATION » Orgeron.I really feel he can win the job, Guice said

Desperate Cronulla veteran Paul Gallen will look to overturn a miserable losing record when he renews hostilities with long-time nemesis Cameron Smith in this years NRL grand final.Not only is the Sharks skipper burdened by the clubs 50-year wait for its maiden premiership, but Gallen also hasnt tasted victory over Smith at club level since 2008.Gallen was missing in Cronullas only two wins over the Storm in that 13-game period, adding to Smiths dominance over the retired NSW captain at State of Origin level.The ill-feeling was only enhanced when Gallen was upset by Maroons players breaking out in Queenslands victory song after a Kangaroos win in 2012.But the Sharks star will on Sunday get a supreme chance to get one over his Melbourne counterpart in a calendar year where tension between the arch rivals hit new heights.It was only in July when the Maroons labelled Gallens post-Origin snub of Smiths victory speech as disrespectful.Its something our team wouldnt do, Smith said at the time.We didnt walk away (when NSW won in 2014). We made a point of staying there for Pauls speech and him lifting the shield.Smiths Storm booked a grand final date with the Sharks after edging out Canberra on Saturday night, but Smith only had nice things to say about the Sharks leader.I always enjoy playing against Gal. I see him a bit because we play in the middle, he said.Im pleased for Gal. He has waited a long time for this. He works hard every time he pulls on the jersey. He has given a lot to the Cronulla club over many years.Smith has won 27 of his 40 career games against Gallen at either Origin or club level, however hasnt lost to the back-rower in a Sharks jumper in nine games dating back to 2008.

LOUIS -- Lance Lynn was one of the more enthusiastic participants as the St. Deion Sanders Jersey Large . PETERSBURG, Fla. Custom Dale Murphy Jersey .Y. -- Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone has drawn on his Syracuse connections once again by hiring Rob Moore to take over as receivers coach. FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Admittedly, Derrius Guice doesnt know all that much about the Golden Boot -- since LSU hasnt held the trophy after losses to Arkansas in each of the last two seasons.The Tigers sophomore did his part to make sure hed have a chance to get acquainted with the 200-pound hardware on Saturday night, rushing for a career-high 252 yards in No. 19 LSUs 38-10 win over the Razorbacks.A week after carrying the ball only two times for eight yards in a 10-0 loss to No. 1 Alabama, Guice overshadowed even star backfield teammate Leonard Fournette for the Tigers (6-3, 4-2 SEC, No. 24 CFP). The sophomore did so by finishing with 21 carries, including a game-sealing 96-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.It was the longest play from scrimmage in LSU history, one that helped the Tigers improve to 4-1 under interim coach Ed Orgeron -- and return the Golden Boot to Baton Rouge.Arkansas sees us as an easy victory every time we lose to Alabama because we always play them right after, Guice said. They felt like it was tradition to just beat us every time we play Alabama and lose, so Im just happy we got to bring the Boot back home.While Guice did much of the work in helping the Tigers outgain Arkansas (6-4, 2-4, No. 25 CFP) 547-291 in total yardage, he had plenty of help from Fournette -- who rushed for three touchdowns and 98 yards on 17 carries.For Arkansas, the loss marked a hard fall back to reality a week after a 31-10 win over Florida .Rawleigh Williams accounted for 103 total yards to lead the Razorbacks, but quarterback Austin Allen struggled for the second straight game -- finishing 15-of-31 passing for 210 yards and two interceptions.Offensively, it just seemed like whenever we did something good we shot ourselves in the foot or did something uncharacteristic, Arkansas coach Bret Bielema said. That obviously set us back.A week afterr allowing only 12 yards rushing to the Gators, Arkansas allowed LSU to rush for 390.dddddddddddd.Most of those came from Guice, whose previous career high was a 163-yard performance against Missouri on Oct. 1. The sophomore has now topped the 100-yard rushing mark in four games this season, and his career night comes a week after the disappointing effort against Alabama.We felt that Derrius deserved more touches, Orgeron said. Obviously, Derrius is a very good running back and we wanted to share the carries.All in all, it was the perfect bounce-back game for an LSU team intent on winning for Orgeron, who took over for the fired Les Miles in September. Afterward, Guice said all of it was for Orgeron.I really feel he can win the job, Guice said.THE TAKEAWAYSo much for the Alabama hangover for LSU , which had lost in two straight years to Arkansas. Both of those games came after physical matchups with the top-ranked Crimson Tide, but the Tigers were clearly the dominant team from their first possession -- when they went 75 yards on nine plays for an opening touchdown.POLL IMPLICATIONSDespite last weeks loss to Alabama, the Tigers remained in this weeks rankings and theyre likely to rise significantly after such a dominating win on Saturday. The Razorbacks, meanwhile, lost any good will they had with voters following last weeks 31-10 win over Florida and likely have to win out to return to the rankings this season.UP NEXTLSU returns home to host Florida in the makeup of the hurricane-postponed game from last month.The Razorbacks are on the road for their final two regular-season games, starting next week at Mississippi State.---More AP college football at http://www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 ' ' '
