MOBILE, Ala. -- The San Diego State Aztecs have more on their minds than maintaining the programs highest ranking in nearly four decades.The 19th-ranked Aztecs (3-0) visit South Alabama Saturday night with fresh memories of last seasons overtime loss that snapped a nine-game home winning streak.The score was close, but in reality they completely dominated us, especially up front, San Diego State coach Rocky Long said.That will be hard to do this season. The Aztecs climbed three spots in the rankings during a bye week after debuting in the polls. They havent been ranked this high since finishing the 1977 season ranked No. 16.San Diego States 13-game winning streak is second only to No. 1 Alabamas 16-game stretch.The fast start has been powered by the nations leading rusher, Donnel Pumphrey.Now, the trick will be sustaining it against a team that hasnt hosted a ranked opponent since the programs inception in 2009. South Alabama (2-2) has also already pulled off a road upset over the Southeastern Conferences Mississippi State.Jaguars coach Joey Jones figures Longs team will have double the motivation from last years game and from wanting to hang onto their poll position.They understand this is a big game for them, Jones said. They just got in the top 20, Im sure they dont want to lose that ranking. They will be ready to play for sure.Here are some things to watch in the game:CONTAINING PUMPHREY: Pumphrey has racked up 501 rushing yards and six touchdowns in his last two games. He gained 281 yards -- the most of any FBS back this season -- against California and gained 220 against Northern Illinois. South Alabama ranks 117th nationally in stopping the run.STREAK ON THE LINE: San Diego State has seldom been challenged during its winning streak, when only two opponents have come within 14 points.REVENGE GAMES: San Diego State has won its last four games against teams that beat the Aztecs the previous meeting, including a 45-40 win over California. South Alabama won last seasons meeting 34-27 in after Aleem Sunanons tying field goal on the final play of regulation forced overtime.Im sure they have a lot of confidence because theyve beaten us before and beaten us bad, Long said. At least physically they beat us bad.JAGUARS CHALLENGE: Not only has South Alabama never hosted a Top 25 team, but this is only the second Joness young program has faced. The Jaguars lost to No. 23 Mississippi State 30-10 on Sept. 22, 2012.CONFIDENT JAGS: South Alabama doesnt seem to lack confidence after an up-and-down start that includes losses to Georgia Southern and Louisiana-Lafayette and an overtime win over Nicholls State, sealed by a defensive stop on a two-point conversion attempt.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org Fake Sports Jerseys . -- Its been a long road back for Sean Bergenheim.

Shane van Gisbergens 148-point Supercars lead remains intact with just four races remaining in the season after squaring up with Jamie Whincup at Pukekohe Park.The Red Bull Racing drivers split the two races between them on Saturday, showing the dominance that has earned them yet another teams championship.The first race was a procession.Whincup jumped pole sitter van Gisbergen off the line and wasnt headed as van Gisbergen settled for runner-up.The second was action-packed.Determined not to let a second pole position slip, the Aucklander fought off his teammate from the grid to rapturous applause from his home crowd.Whincup made three strong efforts in the opening laps to overtake van Gisbergen, with the pair taking the home straight side-by-side on lap three.Each time the Kiwi responded, and Whincups challenge was effectively over on lap 18 when he missed his apex at turn five and was forced to take evasive action.The pair of one-two results means van Gisbergens lead remains steady at 148 points.With 450 points to play for in Auckland and the season-ending Homebush meet, the 27-year-old needs only to finish sixth in the final four races to claim a maiden championship.Excepting moves off the line, no passing moves were completed by the top seven drivers over 70 laps in a drab days rracing compromised by the 100km sprint format.ddddddddddddBut there was plenty of action further back, with Jason Brights garage competing against the clock to have his Commodore ready to race on Sunday after a major crash.A bump with Chris Pither sent Bright into the grass at 180km/h and into the wall leading to the pit lane entry.Pither was served a drive-through penalty for his impact.Bright was able to walk away from the crash, and will rely on his engineers to get back in his Holden again in New Zealand.I copped a pretty big whack in the right rear, well see what the guys can salvage, he said.Also in race one, James Moffat also blunted Dale Woods bonnet by re-entering the track from a short cut through the grass, and Chaz Mostert finished down the order after a trip through the sand.Scott McLaughlin filled out the podium on race one, while Mostert recovered to finish third in race two.McLaughlin, who sits fourth in the championship, whittled the margin to third-placed Craig Lowndes on a productive day in his home country.His third and seventh places, compared with Lowndes 16th and 15th finishes, means the Volvo man is just 22 points from third place.
