BOULDER, Colo. -- The constant stream of personal-foul penalties on No. 16 Colorado last week provided an instant wake-up call.As in, having to set those alarms for bright and early because 80 reps of up-downs along with a series of timed sprints awaited the Buffaloes the next day. The impromptu workout session was the punishment handed out by coach Mike MacIntyre for eight personal-foul penalties in a 20-10 win over UCLA on Thursday.The Buffaloes (7-2, 5-1 Pac-12, No. 12 CFP) vow to keep cooler heads Saturday at Arizona (2-7, 0-6), especially in the thick of a Pac-12 South title chase.The way we played is not normally how we play, said senior outside linebacker Jimmie Gilbert, who was flagged for targeting in the first quarter for a hit on sliding UCLA QB Mike Fafaul that carried an ejection. In order to be Pac-12 champions, we cant play like that -- ever.We gave up a lot of (yards) just because of penalties -- stupid personal fouls, offsides, things like that. By coach punishing us for that, its a way of getting that mistake corrected and putting a message in our head that that isnt acceptable.The Buffaloes averaged the least amount of penalty yards per game in the league before Thursdays meltdown in which they drew 12 flags for 128 yards. MacIntyre can live with some of the personal-foul calls. Those were just his team being overly aggressive, he explained.But he took issue with the unsportsmanlike conduct flags such as taunting and hitting a player out of bounds.Thats totally selfish and all that does is hurt the team, MacIntyre said. After the whistle is blown -- those type of plays are what really irritates me.The Buffaloes met as a team the following day and addressed it.We looked each other in the eyes and in the face and we said, `Were not going to do that again, senior running back Phillip Lindsay said. That will get us beat down the line, making stupid penalties. Weve got to hold each other accountable.And with that, the issue was put to rest.Now on to the next task -- jump-starting a lackluster offense. The Buffaloes averaged 39 points in their opening seven games, but struggled to score against Stanford and UCLA.To not be playing our best offense is pretty frustrating, said senior quarterback Sefo Liufau, whos set or tied 82 school records in his career. After the Stanford game, I was upset with my performance. And UCLA, I was striving too much for perfection instead of throwing the ball.I want to be perfect and get the ball to the guys, let them make plays.Still, the defense and special teams have bailed the Buffaloes out. Colorados defense held Stanford to 263 total yards in a 10-5 win and special teams sealed with the victory over the Bruins, courtesy of Isaiah Olivers 68-yard punt return for a TD with 5:27 remaining.Thats just the way things have been going around Boulder this season.They can handle the moment now -- if its good, bad or indifferent, said MacIntyre, whose team is trying to move to 8-2 for the first time since 2001. They just keeping pushing through it.In the past, when they werent sure about that, it was like, `Oh, no, and panic a little bit and lose a little bit of focus. I think we now crank our focus up. I think we crank our intensity up as a whole group.Gilbert couldnt agree more.Were playing phenomenal, said Gilbert, whos tied for the most forced fumbles (5) in the nation this season. Weve still got mistakes weve got to get corrected. We still have a lot to complete, but weve made tremendous strides.Game notesKicker Davis Price (mono) will be healthy enough to play Saturday, MacIntyre said. ...

The 26-year-old finished last season with Clevelands Triple-A affiliate in Columbus after signing with the Indians in August.Saturday, September 24Greater Western Sydney ($1.50) vs. Western Bulldogs ($2.65), Spotless Stadium at 5:15pmTeam news:The young and exciting Western Bulldogs have become everyones second team and one more win will see the club into its first grand final since 1961. Up North, the Giants will also be looking to make history, by claiming a maiden finals berth themselves.Theres speculation that Lin Jong could be named after recovering quicker than expected from a broken collarbone. However, if he is to play, its more likely going to to be in the Bulldogs VFL grand final side. Matthew Boyd has also insisted this week that his side will not be getting physical with Ryan Griffen who defected to GWS from the Dogs at the end of 2014.GWS had the luxury of a week off after upsetting the minor premiers in week one of the finals, but it came with a price as Steve Johnson will now have to watch on from the sidelines after picking up a one-week suspension for his hit on Josh Kennedy.Key head-to-head: Stephen Coniglio vs. Marcus BontempelliBontempelli has just about been the player of the finals. Its staggering to think the star Bulldog is still barely a pup, at 20 years of age.He was huge against the Hawks, winning key contests -- several against Luke Hodge, if you dont mind -- and leading from the front as the Dogs surged to a preliminary final.Coniglio was desperately unfortunate not to join the Bont in this years All Australian team, such has been his dominance through the midfield all year. The young Giant is adept at winning his own ball while limiting an opponents influence.Will Leon Cameron task Coniglio with stopping the rampaging Bulldog? Or will he back his pack of rolled-gold midfield guns in a head-to-head battle?One would think curbing Bontempellis impact will be front of Camerons mind ahead of this clash, and Coniglio could be that man.If Bontempelli struggles, youd think the Giants will have enough class all over the ground to win through to a history-making grand final.Giannts:?B Adam Tomlinson, Phil Davis, Nathan Wilson HB Heath Shaw, Joel Patfull, Ryan Griffen C Jacob Hopper, Stephen Coniglio, Tom Scully HF Dylan Shiel, Jeremy Cameron, Jonathon Patton F Rhys Palmer, Rory Lobb, Devon Smith FOL Shane Mumford, Toby Greene, Callan Ward I/C Zac Williams, Lachie Whitfield, Josh Kelly, Nick HaynesBulldogs:?B Jason Johannisen, Joel Hamling, Matthew Boyd HB Shane Biggs, Dale Morris, Easton Wood C Lachie Hunter, Marcus Bontempelli, Liam Picken HF Jack Macrae, Zaine Cordy, Jake Stringer F Tory Dickson, Tom Boyd, Caleb Daniel FOL Jordan Roughead, Luke Dahlhaus, Tom Liberatore I/C Clay Smith, Toby McLean, Fletcher Roberts, Josh DunkleyKey Stats: No interstate side playing in its first finals series has ever won back-to-back finals.ddddddddddddUBET verdict: The old adage you have to lose one to win one hasnt applied to GWS so far, as they continue on their rampage towards Saturday weeks grand final.The Giants are now at home after thrashing the Swans two weeks ago, and the money trail tells us that UBET customers expect them to dispose of the Bulldogs on Saturday, and progress to the big dance next week.There is any amount of money for the Giants to beat the Bulldogs at $1.50, and also to cover the handicap line of 13.5 points start.Weather: Mostly sunny with a top of 20. No rain expected.Prediction: This may well be one of the quickest and exciting matches of 2016. These sides are expected to develop a rivalry over the coming years as they both appear set for a number of glory years, but who will prevail in round one?The Giants have made Spotless Stadium a fortress this season and put the Dogs to the sword when they met there earlier in the year. Losing the experienced Johnson is a huge blow, but expect him to be covered adequately as GWS storm into the grand final.Tip:?GWS by five points.Enter your ESPNfootytips AFL selectionsCheap Jerseys China NFL Jerseys [url=http:WS by five points.Enter your ESPNfooseys[/url] ' ' '
