NEW YORK -- Keith Appling scored 27 points and No. Mike Palmateer Maple Leafs Jersey . 1 Michigan State had all it could handle from Oklahoma before pulling away in the final minutes for an 87-76 victory Saturday night in the championship game of the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic. Appling, who was 8 of 12 from the field, scored eight points in the final 3:04 after the Sooners got within 75-71. It was another unimpressive win for the Spartans (6-0) since their victory over then-No. 1 Kentucky moved them up one spot to the top of the poll. They beat Columbia and Portland but didnt pull away from either until the final minutes. They did handle Virginia Tech in the semifinals of this tournament but the championship game wasnt like that at all. The Sooners (4-1) jumped ahead early, fell behind by as many as 18 points and then found a way to get within four points twice in the final 4 minutes before the Spartans were able to pull away once again. Gary Harris had 21 points and Branden Dawson added 18 points and 10 rebounds for the Spartans, who shot 50 per cent from the field (29 of 58), but they were 6 of 19 from 3-point range and 23 of 36 from the free throw line and committed 14 turnovers, five over their season average. Cameron Clark had a career-high 32 points for Oklahoma, which kept chipping away at deficits after losing their big early lead. Oklahoma made its first six and nine of its first 11 shots from the field and took a 22-11 lead. The Spartans took advantage when the Sooners finally cooled down and went up by as many as 14 points by dominating at both ends of the court. They closed the half by outscoring Oklahoma 34-9 over the final 9 minutes and were up 45-31 at halftime. Almost everyone in Barclays Center felt it was just a matter of 20 minutes running off the clock to see how many points the Spartans would win by. The Sooners, who were down 53-35 2 minutes into the second half, werent thinking that and they took advantage of turnovers and questionable shots to go on another big run -- this one 12-0 to get within 57-53 with 12:14 to play. Michigan State coach Tom Izzo called a timeout with 12:03 to play but that didnt help the offence. Appling, the tournament MVP, finally ended the Spartans 6:17 scoring drought with a three-point play with 10:01 to go and he followed an Oklahoma miss with a fast-break dunk to make it 62-53 with 9:35 left. Oklahoma found its way to one more run to get within 73-69 and 75-71, but Appling came up with enough big plays down the stretch to keep the Spartans at No. 1 for at least one more week. The Sooners advanced to the title game with a 7-0 run over the final 32 seconds to beat Seton Hall 87-86. The Spartans had an easier trip, riding Adreian Paynes career-high 29 points along with 10 rebounds in a 96-77 victory over Virginia Tech. Payne had four points on 1-for-6 shooting in the championship game. Maple Leafs Jersey . Just as Montreal was settling into the first full working week of a new year, the Impact announced the appointment of their new head coach. Mats Sundin Maple Leafs Jersey .com) - The Calgary Flames aim to bounce back from their first regulation home loss of the campaign on Friday night when they host a Detroit Red Wings club that they swept in three meetings a season ago. http://www.jerseyofficialmapleleafshockey.com/jonathan-bernier-hockey-jersey/ . -- Three close looks at the bucket, three misses.The Heisman race is tight; the stage is set for a great finish. Defending Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel and Florida State redshirt sophomore Jameis Winston are generally regarded as the top two contenders through 12 weeks of the season, with Oregons Marcus Mariota and the late-charging Bryce Petty of Baylor still within reach of college sports most coveted individual trophy. Manziels remaining schedule features fellow SEC heavyweights LSU and Missouri; two big opportunities for Texas A&M to work their way back into the BCS Bowl conversation and Manziel to make a favourable late season impression on Heisman voters. Winstons schedule is certainly a little lighter. The Seminoles end the regular season with matchups against Idaho and a disappointing Florida squad on Rivalry Weekend, and shouldnt expect much of a boost in the ACC Championship game with the No. 25 Duke Blue Devils the currrent favourites to challenge them for the Conference. Nazem Kadri Jersey. Mariota meanwhile will face two decent but unspectacular Pac-12 rivals to finish out the regular season, but will benefit from the Conference championship game they are now back in the drivers seat to host, with it likely being a rematch against UCLA. The redshirt sophomore QB was pedestrian in his first meeting with the Bruins – a 42-14 drubbing earlier this season – and will need to be significantly better to make a finish line push for the Heisman. And as for Petty, the Bears finish with one big test and two middling ones as they look to clinch the Big 12. The Conference is awarded without a championship but Petty, the late-season riser in this race, could really make some noise if he helps keep Baylor undefeated and in the BCS Championship race after games against Oklahoma State, TCU, and Texas. cheap nfl jerseys cheap jerseys cheap jerseys cheap jerseys cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
