Essex 291 for 4 (Browne 116, Westley 72) vs DerbyshireScorecard Something about playing against Derbyshire brings out the best in Nick Browne and the Essex opener punished his favourite opponents again on the opening day of their Specsavers County Championship match.The 25-year-olds only previous century in the Championship this season came when he hit 255 against Derbyshire at Chelmsford and he added a second to give Essex control at 291 for 4 on a docile 3aaa County Ground pitch.Although he began to be more aggressive against the young Derbyshire spinners in the final session, it was a largely risk-free, patient innings from Browne and he earned the right to carry on at the start of day two on 116 not out.He passed 1,000 first-class runs for the season on 57 and his hundred came off 266 balls with six fours and a six. It was his fourth century in six innings against Derbyshire, at an average of 227.The home side blew one golden chance to dismiss Browne when he was on 60 but, off the fifth ball after tea from Milnes, Neil Broom spilled a regulation catch at second slip. I do seem to do quite well against Derbyshire - I dont know what the reason for that might be, Browne said. Maybe you just feel a little bit more confident against certain bowlers or maybe its the time of the year where Ive missed out a couple of times and they just happen to be there when Im hungry for runs.I definitely know thats what happened in the first game against them this season. I had a lean patch going into that game and I needed to score a big score and managed to score one. Perhaps its the same now. Its just one of those things.Chances of any sort were rare for Derbyshire but they did a good job of containing and trying to frustrate Essex on a surface that gave them very little help. If they had taken that chance straight after tea, they would have been able to consider it a decent day.They took a wicket in the 10th over when Jaik Mickleburgh clipped Tom Milnes off his legs straight to Alex Hughes at midwicket to make it 14 for 1 but second-wicket pair Browne and Tom Westley let them know they were set for a long day in the field with a stand of 128.There were very few loose balls to allow the pair to score easily and it took both a long time to bring up their half-centuries. Westleys came first, off 113 balls with three fours, and Browne finally completed his in the 51st over, off 141 balls with four fours.Westley finally went, caught by wicketkeeper Alex Mellor off the second ball of leg-spinner Matt Critchleys spell, for 72 at 142 for 2.Ravi Bopara showed his intent by lashing his second ball straight down the ground for the games first six and he moved smoothly to 44 before driving loosely at slow left-armer Callum Parkinson, on his home debut, and was well taken by Mellor at 217 for 3.The third over with the second new ball brought a second wicket for Milnes, who finished with a very respectable 2 for 48 in 19 overs, as Kishen Velani stepped across his stumps and was lbw trying to glance the ball to fine leg but Browne was unmoved.He completed a seemingly inevitable century by turning Milnes to midwicket for three and was still there at the close with Ryan ten Doeschate.

Woodrow Hamilton Jersey . -- For the first time in two months, an opponent was standing up to Alabama. KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Alabama wouldnt allow Tennessee to produce another comeback.Jalen Hurts and Bo Scarbrough each rushed for over 100 yards Saturday and No. 1 Alabama again got points from its defense and special teams in a 49-10 blowout of No. 9 Tennessee.It was the most lopsided victory by either team in this rivalry since a 51-0 Alabama victory in 1906.This is as proud of our team as Ive been all year long in terms of playing a complete game against a very good team, especially in a tough environment, Alabama coach Nick Saban said.Tennessee (5-2, 2-2 SEC) had erased double-digit deficits in five of its first six games -- including a 45-38 loss at Texas A&M last week in which it forced overtime after trailing 28-7 -- but the Volunteers couldnt deliver a similar rally this time.Alabama (7-0, 4-0) instead had college footballs cardiac kids dead and buried by the end of the third quarter. The Crimson Tide capitalized on the injury issues that have decimated Tennessees depth chart.That was our goal coming in, to score fast and get them tired, Alabama tight end O.J. Howard. I think it worked.Alabama earned its 19th straight victory overall and its 10th consecutive win in this annual series. Tennessee has lost its last 13 games against Southeastern Conference Western Division schools.Hurts, the Crimson Tides freshman quarterback, ran for 132 yards and three touchdowns as Alabama outrushed Tennessee 438-32.

When one (player) gets one, we always want another one. Thats our goal. We always want one more, one more.Tennessee was playing a ranked opponent for the fourth straight week, a stretch that has taken a physical toll.ddddddddddddInjuries limited the Vols defense to such an extent that linebacker Elliott Berry, cornerback Baylen Buchanan and defensive tackle Kahlil McKenzie made their first career starts. McKenzie left in the first quarter after he appeared to hurt his shoulder.On offense, injuries sidelined guard Jashon Robertson and center Dylan Wiesman for the entire game and knocked out Brett Kendrick in the first quarter. The only starting lineman from last weeks loss to Texas A&M who played the majority of Saturdays game was right guard Jack Jones.Usually when you have a run on injuries, it usually affects one position group, two position groups, Tennessee coach Butch Jones said. Its affected every position group.THE TAKEAWAYThis game showcased the versatility of Alabamas rushing attack as the Tide threatened to have three 100-yard rushers in one game. Damien Harris rushed for 94 yards on 14 carries.Alabamas defense arguably was even more impressive as it suffocated a Tennessee offense that had gained 684 yards against Texas A&M one week earlier.Tennessee: The Vols off week comes at an ideal time as they attempt to get healthier. Even in a loss, Derek Barnett showed why he belongs in any conversation of the nations top defensive players. Barnett recorded a sack and forced a fumble to set up Tennessees lone touchdown and later had his first career interception.POLL IMPLICATIONSAlabama will certainly maintain its No. 1 ranking after this impressive victory. The question is how far Tennessee will drop after losing its second straight. The Vols will be out of the top 10. Will they stay in the top 15- or top 20?NUMBERS
