Corvallis, OR (SportsNetwork.com) - The seventh-ranked Arizona Wildcats close out a two-game set in the Pacific Northwest on Sunday evening, as they take on the Oregon State Beavers in Pac-12 action at the Gill Coliseum. Sean Millers Wildcats opened the 2014-15 campaign with 12 straight victories before closing out non-conference play with a 71-67 setback at UNLV. The team has gotten back to its winning ways in Pac-12 play however, routing both Arizona State (73-49) and most recently, Oregon (80-62). Wayne Tinkles Beavers are a solid 10-4 on the year. The team has won two of its last three games and has opened up league play at 1-1. Oregon State dropped a 71-59 decision to rival Oregon to get the Pac-12 slate underway, but did knock off Arizona State on Thursday, 55-47. This marks the 79th all-time meeting in this series. The Wildcats hold a 58-20 series advantage, including a 22-14 edge in Corvallis. Arizona has won the last seven meetings with Oregon State. The Wildcats have shown very few weaknesses this season, as their +16.7 scoring margin would suggest. Arizona is shooting an even 50 percent from the floor overall, leading to 76.3 ppg, while also showing a great affinity for defensive play. Opponents are netting just 59.7 ppg and being held to a .388 effort from the floor. The team also lives comfortably in terms of rebounding (+7.3) and turnover (+2.7) margins. Freshman Stanley Johnson has made an immediate impact in Tucson and tops the team in both scoring (14.4 ppg) and rebounding (6.9 rpg). Brandon Ashley (11.7 ppg, 5.3 rpg) and Rondae Hollis- Jefferson (11.5 ppg, 6.6 rpg) provide more than enough frontcourt depth. Gabe York (9.2 ppg) and T.J. McConnell (8.5 ppg, 5.9 apg) are the leaders in the backcourt. Arizona earned its first-ever win at Matthew Knight Arena by shooting an efficient .482 from the floor and dominating play on the glass, outrebounding the Ducks, 40-27. A quiet contributor in terms of scoring this season, McConnell erupted for a season-high 21 points in the win. The other four starters also notched double figures in the balanced attack for Arizona, as Johnson finished with 14 points, followed by Hollis-Jefferson (13 pts), center Kaleb Tarczewski (11 pts) and Ashley (10 pts). The 7-foot Tarczewski completed a double-double with 10 boards. It wasnt the prettiest of games on Thursday at Gill Coliseum, as both Oregon State and Arizona State struggled offensively. The Beavers shot just 39 percent from the floor against ASUs 39.5 percent. The game was decided at the free-throw line, where the Beavers outscored the Sun Devils, 20-9. Malcolm Duvivier led all scorers with 15 points, fueled by a 10-of-11 effort from the charity stripe. Gary Payton II added 12 points to the cause, while Victor Robbins came off the bench to tally 10. Defense is the name of the game in Corvallis this season, as the Beavers are limiting foes to just 56.9 ppg. Opponents are shooting under 40 percent from the floor (.367), which includes a mere .287 from behind the arc. Offensively, OSU is netting a modest 66.5 ppg, but there is some depth, with four players currently averaging double figures. Payton represents the top threat on the roster with 12.4 ppg. The 6-3 guard is also tops on the team in rebounding (8.1 rpg) and steals (41). Robbins hasnt started a single game, but is tied with Langston Morris-Walker with 10.5 ppg apiece. Olaf Schaftenaar rounds out the quartet with 10.3 ppg. Oren Burks Jersey .

LAKE FOREST, Ill. – Devin Hester is done returning kicks in Chicago. The Bears confirmed Thursday that they are parting ways with the three-time Pro Bowl pick after eight seasons, confirming what he told the NFL Network the previous day. So instead of a return to Chicago, hell hit the market as a free agent. General manager Phil Emery said it had been an honour to have Hester on the team. "While Devin has redefined the pinnacle standard of the return position in the NFL, the memories and contributions he has given us cannot be measured by stats or numbers," he said. "Not only is Devin a special player, he is also an exceptional person. He is a great teammate, husband and father. Devin represented the organization off-the-field as well as he did on it. When his career is over, he will always be a welcome member of the Bears family." Hester matched Hall of Famer Deion Sanders NFL record with his 19th return touchddown last season, tying his friend and mentor with an 81-yard punt return at Washington in October.dddddddddddd It was Hesters 13th punt return for a TD, extending his own record in that category. He has also returned five kickoffs and a missed field goal for a touchdown. Hester is best remembered by Bears fans for returning the opening kickoff in the 2007 Super Bowl for a touchdown. He ran it back 92 yards for a score in a game won by Indianapolis. Hester endured several lulls on returns during his career, particularly when the Bears tried to make him a receiver. But he showed some of his old form while focusing solely on returns last season. Hes the second Bears star to leave the team in as many years: Last May, linebacker Brian Urlacher announced his retirement after 13 seasons, all with the Bears. The eight-time Pro Bowler and the team were unable to reach a deal a year ago and he eventually decided to call it quits.
