fixture. It was a wild end-to-end affair in which Vardy scored

BATON ROUGE, La. -- LSU quarterback Danny Etling is challenging the 19th-ranked Tigers to get some perspective and control over their emotions.Any type of hangover from a deflating 10-0 loss to top-ranked Alabama this past weekend will damage interim coach Ed Orgerons chances of keeping his job long-term and put bowl eligibility at risk for LSU (5-3, 3-2 Southeastern Conference). The Tigers still need at least one more victory out of three remaining conference games to qualify for the postseason.Its time to move on and get ready for Arkansas, Etling said, referring to this Saturday nights opponent. Whats more fun than playing college football? Theres only so much time to put into it. I realize football is a game, but I love this game.Maybe if you dont love the game like you should, you shouldnt be on the team, Etling added sternly. If youre the right kind of person, youre competitive. Im very competitive.Only days ago, LSU was realistically in position to take control of the SEC West Division. Now, for the fifth consecutive year, there will be no appearance in the Southeastern Conference championship game for LSU, which has dropped six straight to the Crimson Tide, starting with the January 2012 BCS national championship game.But in its previous five losses to Alabama, LSU already had reached the six victory threshold for bowl eligibility. If the Tigers cant win at least one of their final three games, theyll fail to qualify for the postseason for the first time since 1999 -- the year before current Alabama coach Nick Saban began his previous college coaching job at LSU.LSUs remaining schedule is challenging, with road games against Arkansas and No. 10 Texas A&M sandwiched around a home game against No. 22 Florida.Getting to a bowl is a motivation, junior fullback John David Moore said. But, that may not be the first thing. The first thing we say may not be `we have to win to be bowl eligible. We need to win for the brothers on our team, for `coach O and for our fans.LSU has struggled the past two seasons when facing Arkansas the week after being beaten by Alabama. The Razorbacks have posted back-to-back 17-point victories against the Tigers -- 17-0 in 2014 and 31-14 in 2015. Last season, LSU dropped games to Arkansas and Ole Miss after losing to Alabama.Orgeron asserted that he bears primary responsibility for getting his players in the proper frame of mind for Saturdays game against the Hogs in Fayetteville.My job as the football coach is to have the players put (the Alabama loss) away, said Orgeron, who coached LSU to lopsided victories in its first three games following Les Miles firing in late September. All of us felt the loss (Sunday). You have to deal with the emotional letdown. We were all sick to our belly. We must respond to the first loss in our new season.Tigers senior center Ethan Pocic expects a different mindset from his teammates this week than in the past two years following losses to Alabama.There will be a lot of energy this week, Pocic said. In the past, it was not as alive. It was a little bit mopey. Coach O is big on energy, going fast and having fun. It was a hard loss, but we still have a lot to play for and he has a lot to coach for.The LSU offense gained just 125 yards and picked up six first downs while getting blanked by Alabama, which did not allow the Tigers one offensive snap inside the Crimson Tide 30-yard line. Etling remains confident that his unit will rebound in Arkansas in what is also LSUs first road game under Orgeron.I thought we were going to go in there and move the ball against Alabama, Etling said. It was a mixture of them being really talented and us not executing the game plan. We dont need to freak out. It was one game where we didnt execute. We just have to grind away and get better.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 Grant Fuhr Jersey .

There may not be must-win matches in mid-August, but one can certainly make the argument there are not-lose matches.For all the subplots surrounding Saturdays marquee match and home opener for reigning champions Leicester City against Arsenal at King Power Stadium, one fact is sure to have captured both teams attention:Only the 1992-93 Manchester United side have won the title in the Premier League era after starting the season with back-to-back losses, an unenviable position either side could face if the other emerges victorious.For all the memorable moments Leicester City created in their stunning run to the top of the table, they had a forgettable one last weekend at KC Stadium. The Foxes became the first defending champion in the Premier League era to lose their season opener, falling 2-1 to a promoted Hull City side facing a spate of distractions and a lack of match-fit bodies -- the Tigers didnt use any of their allotted substitutions.Riyad Mahrez scored Leicesters lone goal, a penalty shortly after intermission, but Jamie Vardy failed to display the razor-sharp finishing skills that propelled the Foxes to the league title and a spot for him on Englands roster for the Euros this summer. He missed three opportunities, and the Foxes also missed departed midfielder NGolo Kante and suspended defender Robert Huth as they conceded goals on either side of halftime.Newcomer Luis Hernandez, again expected to partner with Wes Morgan in central defence as Huth serves the last of his three-match ban, is expecting his team not to panic and show the same kind of resolve that made them title-winners in the spring.I think now after we lost our first game its important to stay calm, Hernandez told LCFC TV. I know its not easy to lose the first game but we need to be calm because the league is about 38 games.Its a difficult game because Arsenal are a big team with really good players but were at home with our supporters. We know that Arsenals attacking players are really good with good technique. So it will be difficult for us but we need to play together like last season with high intensity and if we do that I think we can win.Mahrez also finally ended the drama surrounding his possible exit before the transfer deadline, putting pen to paper on a new four-year contract Thursday. The Algeria international reportedly had many suitors, including Saturdays opponents, but the 2016 PFA Player of the Year opted to remain Vardys running mate as the Foxes embark on their first Champions League adventure.Im happy to continue my adventure with Leicester City, he said. Its been a pleasure to be here the last two-and-a-half years, so Im going to keep going here. Ive achieved good things with this club.Im excited to see whats going on in the Champions League with big clubs and big players -- we will see. Its for everyone, not just for the players and not just for the club, but for the city and everyone thats behind Leicester City. Its the first time that we play in the Champions League, so its fantastic.While Champions League is old hat for Arsenal -- they will be in group play in Europes top club competition for the 19th straight year -- some of their shortcomings that also are old hat have already surfaced to put heat on manager Arsene Wenger.The Frenchmans inability to finalise a deal for Vardy after triggering the release clause in his contract rankled an already-agitated fan base. And those Gunnerss supporters were further unnerved with a 4-3 loss at home Sunday to Liverpool, prompting chants of You dont know what youre doing directed at Wenger as the lack of summer signings exacerbated an injury-hit squad also trying to rest players who appeared in the European Championships.ddddddddddddBuying calms the fans down, but its important to spend but even more important to spend the right way, Wenger said Thursday. You do not sign players because you think it is important or not. It is about the availability of players … to find the players that will strengthen your squad is much more difficult.One of those three summer signings, 20-year-old defender Rob Holding from relegated League One squad Bolton Wanders, was clearly out of his element along with central defender Calum Chambers during a torrid 18-minute stretch in which a one-goal lead became a three-goal deficit with a half-hour to play.Holdings disastrous performance and the lack of bodies at the position may force Wengers hand to bring back Laurent Koscielny back into the lineup as Arsenal are reportedly trying to pry either Shkodran Mustafi from Valencia or possibly Jose Gimenez from Atletico Madrid. Gimenez is believed to have a release clause of ￡56 million, and it may take a minimum transfer fee of ￡40 million to land the 21-year-old Uruguayan.We are working very hard, Wenger insisted. You are absolutely convinced that I dont want to spend the money, but I would like to reassure you that we are ready to spend the money we have. As always, not the money we havent got (because) its not my money.Koscielny had resumed practice only last week after helping Les Bleus reach the Euro final, and both Per Mertesacker and Gabriel will miss four months and six weeks, respectively, due to injuries.German midfielder Mesut Ozil and French striker Olivier Giroud were also held out for rest, but Ozil could also be pressed into duty since Aaron Ramsey was forced from the loss to Liverpool with an injury just after the hour mark. Giroud, meanwhile, could be a more effective target forward who would let Alexis Sanchez play in his customary spot on the wing.Arsenal handed Leicester City two of their three league losses last season, including a 5-2 victory in the 2015-16 corresponding fixture. It was a wild end-to-end affair in which Vardy scored a goal, hit a post and dented the crossbar in the first 20 minutes and Sanchez bagged three goals in a contest devoid of defence.The Gunners then completed the double -- and extended their league unbeaten streak over the Foxes to 19 matches (13-6-0) -- with a 2-1 victory on Valentines Day. Denny Welbeck scored in the 95th minute as Leicester were unable to scrape out a point despite playing almost all of the second half with 10 men after Danny Simpson was sent off with his second yellow card on 54 minutes.Vardy converted from the spot in that contest, and Wenger is expecting another tough match from a Foxes team that now has a championship pedigree.They have exactly the same qualities they had last year and they are a team who are very quick on the break and defend well as a unit, he said. We have to address our defensive weaknesses from last week without compromising our style of play.We need to continue being very dangerous going forward and accept the way we play. ' ' '
