CORK, Ireland -- Mikko Ilonen opened a two-stroke lead in the Irish Open, while Rory McIlroy missed the cut by a shot Friday at Fota Island. Chris Paul Jersey . Ilonen had a 3-under 68 to reach 10 under. He opened with a course-record 64 on Thursday. The 34-year-old Finn birdied his opening hole, followed with eight straight pars, then had four birdies and two bogeys on the back nine. "I wanted to at least get to 10-under par and I did that," Ilonen said. "It wasnt as easy today and I didnt hit the ball that well but I putted well and it was good enough." Northern Irelands Graeme McDowell (66), Englands Robert Rock (66) and Frances Romain Wattel (65) were tied for second at 8 under, and three-time major champion Padraig Harrington (67) was 6 under. The loss of McIlroy, from Northern Ireland, was a blow to event organizers. He followed his opening 74 with a 69 to miss the cut for the second straight year in the national open. McIlroy had a double bogey on par-5 fourth after his tee shot clipped a tree and ricocheted out of bounds and over the fence into the adjoining Fota Island Wildlife Park. "Ill be back next year and try and do better," McIlroy said. Patrick Beverley Jersey .

Iowa took down visiting Ohio State on Saturday, 76-67, for the second time in a little less than three weeks, the first coming in the Big Ten opener for both teams in Columbus on Dec. 30, 71-65. As a result, the Hawkeyes are 13-5 overall, and theyve won four of their first five conference bouts. The lone blemish on their league ledger came at home to Michigan State, 75-61, on Jan. 8. Iowa is 3-0 in true road games this season, having already beaten a pair of ranked foes on their home floor (North Carolina, Ohio State). Wisconsin has been ranked among the top teams in the nation all season long, and the team enters this fray sporting a 16-2 record, which includes a 4-1 mark in Big Ten play. The Badgers, who have matched their second-best 18-game start in the modern era, dropped a surprising 67-62 decision at conference newcomer Rutgers on Jan. 11 to stop an eight-game win streak. The squad responded by defeating Nebraska at home last Thursday, 70-55, to improve to 9-1 at the Kohl Center. Wisconsin is clinging to an 80-79 lead in the all-time series with Iowa, and the Badgers won both meetings last season. Things have been close of late, with each of the last five matchups being decided by five points or less. Iowa played well at both ends of the court in its recent win over Ohio State, as the team drained 51.1 percent of its field goal attempts while allowing the Buckeyes to do so at just 38.3 percent. Aaron White led the Hawkeyes with 22 points, while Adam Woodbury finished with 13 points and 10 rebounds, and Mike Gesell pitched in with 11 points. Those efforts were certainly needed, as the Buckeyes got a monster effort from DAngelo Russell as he tallied 27 pointss and 14 boards. Custom Clippers Jerseys. Iowa used a 37-31 advantage on the glass, and a 25-14 edge in points at the foul line to come out on top. For the season, White (16.1 ppg, 7.1 rpg) paces the team in both scoring and rebounding, and he also serves as the Hawkeyes top thief with 30 steals. Jarrod Uthoff (11.8 ppg, 6.7 rpg, 2.1 apg, 28 blocks) is the only other double-digit scorer for an Iowa team that isnt an offensive juggernaut (70.8 ppg, .420 FG percentage), but does a solid job of frustrating its opponents into only 61.4 ppg and a typical shooting output of only .389 overall. The Hawkeyes usually win both the rebounding (+3.7) and turnover (+1.7) battles. Frank Kaminsky appeared to be no worse for the wear in his return from a concussion, as he scored 22 points, including the draining of four 3-pointers, as Wisconsin pushed its way past Nebraska last week. It was the 100th win (against only 14 losses) for the Badgers at home against a Big Ten opponent under head coach Bo Ryan. In all, UW put five players in double figures as it played its first game without starting guard Traevon Jackson (fractured foot). The Badgers nailed 11 treys, and used a 17-8 edge in points at the charity stripe to assist in the victory. The two teams combined for only 11 turnovers. Even with Jackson out of the lineup, the Badgers still have three double-digit scorers on which to rely, led by All-America candidate Kaminsky (17.2 ppg, 8.0 rpg, 32 blocks). Sam Dekker (12.3 ppg, 4.7 rpg) and Nigel Hayes (12.3 ppg, 7.1 rpg) have been consistent contributors as well, and guys like Josh Gasser (7.2 ppg) and Bronson Koenig (5.2 ppg) will be asked to elevate their respective games moving forward. Overall, Wisconsin nets 73.3 ppg while allowing just 54.9 ppg. The Badgers convert 74 percent of their free throws, and they are +6.4 in rebounding margin, and +3.2 in turnover differential. They protect the ball extremely well, coughing it up only 8.2 times per outing. cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
