CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Chase Artopoeus threw two touchdown passes and ran for a score to lead Chattanooga to a 24-17 victory over Austin Peay in a nonconference regular-season finale on Saturday. Chattanooga (7-5) jumped out to a 10-0 first-quarter lead on Jude Kelley's 28-yard field goal and Artopoeus' 9-yard touchdown toss to Javin Whatley with 42 seconds left. The score came five plays after Alex Mitchell intercepted a pass from Austin Smith, giving the Mocs the ball at the Governors' 26-yard line. Austin Peay answered in the second quarter with help from a Chattanooga turnover. Ellis Ellis Jr. picked off Artopoeus and the Governors took over at the Mocs' 30. Smith completed three straight passes — the last one covering 4 yards to Jaden Barnes to get Austin Peay within three points. Carson Smith followed with a 35-yard field goal to tie it at 10. Chattanooga regained the lead with 4:01 left in the third quarter when Artopoeus capped a nine-play drive with a 3-yard touchdown run. Smith had a 23-yard touchdown run to get Austin Peay within seven with 8:08 left in the game. The Governors drove to the Mocs' 30, but Smith's fourth-down pass fell incomplete with 41 seconds to go. Artopoeus completed 15 of 21 passes for 161 yards for Chattanooga. He had a 7-yard scoring toss to John McIntyre to put the Mocs up 24-10 early in the final quarter. Smith finished with 192 yards on 21-for-36 passing for Austin Peay, which finishes its first season under head coach Jeff Faris with a 4-8 record. Rusty Wright became the first Chattanooga coach to finish .500 or better in each of his first six seasons. Chattanooga snapped Austin Peay's nine-game win streak with a 24-21 victory on the road to close out the regular season last year. Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season.

He was a key part of the team that enjoyed great success under Sir Alex Ferguson, winning multiple Premier League titles and a Champions League trophy. He knows firsthand the level of commitment and dedication required to succeed at the highest level, and he believes that the current crop of players at Manchester United need to be held to the same standards.On the other hand, Manchester United's struggles continued as they suffered a defeat in their latest match, leaving them languishing in 13th place in the table. The Red Devils have been inconsistent so far this season and will need to find some consistency if they are to climb the standings and challenge for a top-four finish.
Saints hope to ride the Rizzi factor back to relevance after their bye weekBROOKLYN, N.Y. — As Jamahl Mosley has continued to adjust Orlando ‘s lineups in the absence of Paolo Banchero , the Magic coach has seemingly found one that thrives on both ends of the court. It’s who the Magic have started the last two games, including Friday night against the Nets at Barclays Center: Jalen Suggs, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Franz Wagner, Wendell Carter Jr. and Goga Bitadze. It’s also a group that wasn’t possible to put on the floor when Carter missed 12 games in a row due to left foot plantar fasciitis. But until Banchero (torn right abdominal muscle) returns to the court, it’s a lineup that allows the Magic to spread the floor on offense, attack the paint and impose their will on defense. “It’s kind of hard to score on that,” said Caldwell-Pope said of Orlando’s newest starting lineup after the Magic’s fifth win in a row and their 11th in the past 12 games Friday. At 6-foot-5, he and Suggs are technically the shortest players amongst the lengthy group that includes the 6-10 Wagner, 6-10 Carter and 6-11 Bitadze. “When you’ve got me, Suggs, [and] Franz guarding the wings, and then if you get past us, you’ve got two big guys down there,” Caldwell-Pope said. He described Carter and Bitadze as shot-blockers who can also change a lot of shots and clean up the glass for Orlando (14-7). “They’re getting rebounds for us and that’s when we get out and push in transition; what we’re starting to get better at,” the veteran guard said of Orlando’s two big men. And Caldwell-Pope is right. The lineup of Suggs, Caldwell-Pope, Wagner, Carter and Bitadze has allowed zero offensive boards to opponents in the two games they’ve played together, according to NBA.com . As an entire team, the Magic outrebounded the Nets 40-35, which included an 11-5 advantage on offensive boards. They added 13 blocks (5 of which came from Bitadze) and 13 steals. By the end of the night, Orlando had scored 34 points of 20 Brooklyn turnovers. Beede’s Breakdown: How Magic’s 3s powered NBA Cup win at Nets “It’s working,” Bitadze told reporters in the locker room about playing alongside Carter. “We’re locking it up. Teams are really struggling to score against us, so I guess we are playing good defense.” The advanced numbers back up his claim. Among the six Magic lineups that have played at least 29 minutes together, the quintet of Suggs, Caldwell-Pope, Wagner, Carter and Bitadze has a team-best net-rating at plus-48.3, according to NBA.com. That’s thanks to not only a solid 98.3 defensive rating but also an impressive 146.6 offensive rating. While still a small sample size, it’s noteworthy for a new starting lineup from the Magic. “I’m sure it’s an adjustment for them two as well, but I feel like they’re doing a great job,” Wagner said of the Carter-Bitadze duo. “Obviously, it requires a little bit of communication [with] guys playing out of their position, especially Wendell. “But I feel like Wendell’s doing a great job of finding his way back into things,” he added. As Bitadze has found success in the paint on offense, it’s been Carter who helps out on the perimeter on offense. They’re also both capable passers, with Carter dishing out 4 assists vs. Brooklyn and Bitadze 3. Although he only made his lone 3-point attempt vs. Brooklyn, Carter’s presence alone impacts Caldwell-Pope, Suggs and Wagner, a trio that shot 9 of 17 (53%) from distance on Friday. “I haven’t been shooting it well, so he can spread the floor and we crash the glass and dominate the glass inside with me and him, too,” Bitadze said about playing alongside Carter. “Defensively as well, we’re a force, so it’s easy.” Added Carter about the duo after practice Saturday: “It’s not really an adjustment. We’re both defensive-minded players and we take a lot of pride on the defensive end. Playing with Goga, if anything it makes a lot easier on that end.” But the Magic aren’t satisfied. They know the work continues through the long haul after just a quarter of the way through the season and entering a Sunday afternoon re-match against the Nets (9-11). Gary Harris (left hamstring strain) will miss his third consecutive contest against Brooklyn. “We can do even better than this,” Bitadze said. “We always expect the best and not let other teams score at all. We would love that — not to let them score. But it’s been working well.” The Magic also understand and appreciate the job done by Mosley since Banchero went down Oct. 30 at Chicago. Orlando has gone 11-5 in the time Banchero has missed. “Shoutout to Mosley for keeping us together,” Bitadze said of his coach. “To really focus on defense is hard in this league, and that’s what we’ve done. We’re winning games; we’re trusting our defense. So it’s working well. “We’ve got to keep trusting.” Jason Beede can be reached at jbeede@orlandosentinel.com Up next ...
