LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Louisvilles lopsided victories had raised expectations so high for the No. 7 Cardinals that a close victory seemed unlikely against an outmatched opponent.But a second straight defeat looked possible against Duke on Friday night until a late penalty by the Blue Devils allowed quarterback Lamar Jackson to seal a shaky win for the Cardinals.Jackson provided a cushion with a 2-yard touchdown run with 1:32 remaining and Louisville held off Duke 24-14, and the outcome was all that mattered to the Cardinals.We didnt blow them out, but we did win the game, said Louisville coach Bobby Petrino, whose team had averaged a nation-leading 58 points coming in.The Cardinals caught a break after Evan OHaras 46-yard field goal missed wide left as Dukes Breon Borders was called for roughing the kicker. The penalty moved the ball to the 14 and Jackson did the rest with a 12-yard run followed by the short score that Louisville (5-1, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) sorely needed.I wasnt going to let my team down, the Heisman Trophy contender said. We were going down there to score.Jackson accounted for 325 yards of offense and two touchdowns, hitting Jaylen Smith with a 5-yard scoring pass on the opening drive. Jeremy Smith added an 80-yard TD run in the third quarter, and OHara kicked a 22-yard field goal as the Cardinals came off the bye and earned the programs 500th victory.Duke (3-4, 0-3) remained winless in ACC play but gave Louisville more than it expected.The Cardinals sought a big bounce back after losing at Clemson, especially with a week off. The Cardinals offense certainly looked refreshed from the break as they drove 80 yards in 10 plays with Jacksons TD pass capping the drive.Duke wasnt fazed and answered quickly as Daniel Jones hit Erich Schneider for a 9-yard TD to tie it and trail just 10-7 at the half. The Blue Devils later closed within three as Jones hit a 20-yard TD pass to Johnathan Lloyd with 6:34 remaining to cap a 15-play, 75-yard drive that consumed 8:53.I believed our guys had confidence they could win, said Duke coach David Cutcliffe, whose team controlled the clock for 37:12. I dont think it surprised anyone that we scored early and matched a team like that.Duke seemed poised to take one final clock-chewing crack at beating Louisville until the penalty quashed that hope. Jackson then took control for Louisville -- as usual.POLL IMPLICATIONSThe Cardinals might lose some position after escaping with a close win despite being 35-point favorites. Petrino chose to focus on the bottom line and said, our objective is to go win, keep ourselves in (playoff consideration), and I think we did that. Weve just got to go play better.THE TAKEAWAYDuke: The Blue Devils werent intimidated by Jackson or the Cardinals. Jones was 14 of 21 passing for 129 yards including a 51-yarder. Jela Duncan returned from a leg injury to rush for 44 yards on 12 carries. But they managed just two scoring drives despite controlling the clock and committed a costly penalty that could have provided one last shot to win.Louisville: The Cardinals never trailed and outgained Duke 469-239 but never seemed in full control. Two chances to gain breathing room in the third quarter ended with Brandon Radcliffe fumbling on one possession and OHaras missing from 42 yards on the next.We lost our focus, Jackson said. We were driving the ball, hit a hump. (Well) watch film and get everything fixed. We were down there several times; weve got to get it right.Jackson seemed off on some throws but offset that with his speed and nifty footwork on several key fourth-quarter runs including their final drive. He completed 13 of 26 passes for 181 yards and rushed 21 times for 144. He is responsible for 30 touchdowns, 15 each passing and rushing.UP NEXTDuke: The Blue Devils will have a bye before traveling to Georgia Tech on Oct. 29.Louisville: The Cardinals host North Carolina State next Saturday.---AP College Football: collegefootball.ap.org Basketball Shoes Canada Cheap .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable.

Jarryd Hayne has been pitched a potentially lucrative rugby union scenario involving Super Rugby and the Japanese competition, but the ARU is adamant it wont be contributing financially to any deal.Australian Rugby Union boss Bill Pulver has held talks with Hayne and his manager Wayne Beavis this week in Sydney.The former Parramatta NRL and San Francisco NFL player has yet to decide which code and side he will play for in 2017, following his unsuccessful attempt to make Fijis Olympic sevens rugby squad.Representing Fiji in the final leg of the World Series sevens tournament rendered Hayne ineligible to play for the Wallabies and an ARU financial top-up.Pulver expressed interest in having Hayne come across to the 15-a-side game and was enthusiastic about his abilities, but ruled out the ARU having any financial input.He made it clear the ARU would not look outside the top-up or establish a precedent by finding some other method of paying Hayne.The ARU would, however, have to sign off on any contract Hayne agreed on with a Super Rugby franchise.Pulver said he had the feeling Hayne was genuinely interested in playing rugby rather than using their discussions as leverage to force a bigger deal with a NRL club.He said he had spoken to Hayne and Beavis about the possibility of the talented athlete signing a deal allowing him to play for an Australian Super side and a Japanese team.Pulver felt that would be more practical for Hayne than switching between Australia and Europe, where the season overlapped with the Super Rugby schedulle.ddddddddddddNSW Waratahs five-eighth Bernard Foley has already played back-to-back seasons in Australia and Japan, while two other leading Wallabies, flanker David Pocock and fullback Israel Folau, have similar agreements locked in for the future.The ARU boss said a multiple-season deal combining Super and Japanese rugby would be a pretty lucrative option for Hayne.He said they would have more discussions and he expected Hayne to make a decision in the next few months.Hayne has been linked to the Waratahs, although a NSW Rugby Union spokesperson said on Thursday Hayne had not yet held any talks with their organisation.The Waratahs are believed to be more concerned about whether Hayne would be a good fit for them as opposed to his asking price.NSW coach Daryl Gibson and senior players, including Folau and fellow Wallaby Dean Mumm, have all said in recent weeks they would be interested in Hayne joining their franchise.Pulver confirmed five-eighth Quade Cooper and the ARU had reached a three-year heads of agreement for the former Wallaby No.10 to return to Australia following his stint with French club Toulon.He said a formal deal with Cooper would be signed once the pivot decided which team he wanted to play for.Coopers former side the Queensland Reds and the Melbourne Rebels are believed to be the main candidates, with Pulver delighted to have the talented playmaker back in the Australian fold.
