They don't have much offense, but victory over depleted Ducks keeps them in the chase for Jan. 1 game in Pasadena.
UCLA defensive end Bruce Davis didn't want to leave. He wandered back out to the Rose Bowl field, took his usual spot on the bench, and listened to the ghosts after playing his last regular-season game in the stadium.

It is that time of the season when games come wrapped in varied ribbons. Some are made-for-TV spectaculars. Others fill out tournaments both legitimate and contrived. A whole slew are guaranteed victories for the home team and, for the visitors, guaranteed paydays. Then there are the kind Purdue and Loyola played Saturday at Mackey Arena.

Of the many gaping wounds Notre Dame suffered this season, a great many were self-inflicted. Because their problems were largely of their own making, at nearly every possible level, the Irish didn't generate much sympathy.

Brian Barwick and the FA buffers are burying their heads as deeply in the Wembley mire as were the feet of England's players on Wednesday if they believe the Euro exit will not harm prospects of hosting the 2018 World Cup. Leapfroggers Russia, gifted a passage to next year's finals, will seize the opportunity to use their presence at the finals in Austria and Switzerland to press their own claim. Indeed, our Russian spies tell us that President Putin was "delighted" to see England stumble and has personally instructed his sports minister Vyacheslava Fetisov to "pull out all the stops" to secure 2018 for Russia. Former ice hockey icon Fetisov has many friends in Fifa, not least Sepp Blatter, and will ensure that Russia's candidature, to be confirmed shortly, will be the most serious challenge to England. It could also be significant that England's demotion to a second-class football power has not evoked much sympathy among the nations gathered in Durban for the 2010 World Cup draw. That "arrogant" reputation, highlited last week by the Croatians, remains hard to erase.

Relying on Israel for a favour was one thing, expecting Andorra to help out quite another. Guus Hiddink's Russia may have slipped up in those extraordinary last few minutes in Tel Aviv last Saturday but they were hardly going to do so again in the tiny Andorran national stadium four days later. So England, in the end, had only themselves to blame for failing to make the European Championship finals, and one of the few welcome developments subsequently has been that some of those responsible ? players, coaches and administrators ? were prepared to accept their share of that blame.

Justin Rose and Ian Poulter headed into today's final day here at Mission Hills in the knowledge that one good round could mean that by the time their home nation was applying the marmalade at the breakfast table they could have been toasted as golf's "world champions". But the England pair were also painfully aware that the foursomes format can bite you in the balatas with merciless severity.

Mark Twain was right about golf being like "a good walk spoiled". There are some serious green issues involved, even if the spoils are plentiful. While Tiger Woods has been bulldozing his £23 million seaside paradise in Florida to replace it with a mansion that looks like a warehouse, Donald Trump has secured local permission to build a £1 billion course on 1,400 acres of sand dunes in Aberdeenshire which happen to be a Site of Special Scientific Interest. Meanwhile, in Sydney, the Warringhah club have had seen their greens ripped up by grub-hungry wood ducks which then excreted merrily. Now they are shooting them, prompting environmentalists to cause even more damage. Who will pick up the bill?

Are you watching, Scott Carson? Big-race rookie Sam Thomas rose to the occasion here yesterday, defying any nerves and pressure to steer Kauto Star back to winning ways. Thomas, replacing injured Ruby Walsh on the Paul Nicholls-trained champion chaser, remained ice-cool in a crucible of scrutiny with much at stake ? a considerable step on his burgeoning career, the horse's reputation and the small matter of a £1 million ? and almost nonchalantly secured victory by half a length.
