Talons tampaThe Tampa Bay Storm defeated the Tulsa Talons, 68-38, Saturday night at the BOK Center to earn the right to host the Orlando Predators in the American Conference Championship game next Saturday at the St.  Pete Times Forum.  The Tampa Bay defense took over the game harassing  Tulsa quarterback Justin Allgood all game recording three interceptions  and forcing him to complete less then 50 percent of his passes as 5,964  Tulsa fans went home disappointed.

Brett Dietz finished the game 22-of-29 for 263 yards and seven  touchdowns.  Tyrone Timmons was on the receiving end of three touchdowns and Sedrick Robinson led Storm with seven catches for 87 yards and two  touchdowns after filling in for an injured Hank Edwards. Edwards' injury occurred at the end of the second quarter and he did not return to the  game,

Although they did not record a sack, the Storm defensive line put heavy  pressure on the Talons the entire night forcing Allgood into bad throws  all evening.  Allgood finished the game 20-of-43 for 242 yards and six  touchdowns despite throwing three picks.  Rookie defensive back Erick  McIntosh was on the receiving end of two of the interceptions including  one he intercepted near midfield and returned to the Talons three-yards  line.

Seven home games, including a matchup with Stanford in the Big 12/Pac-10 Hardwood Series, highlight Oklahoma State’s 2010-11 men’s basketball non-conference schedule, announced today by head coach Travis Ford.

“Our non-conference schedule will be very competitive this season and prepare us for the league portion of our schedule,” Ford said. “With the Big 12 considered the toughest conference in the country, we want to play teams that will prepare us for winning in the league. The teams on our non-conference schedule are also going to help us achieve a high RPI, which will be helpful when NCAA Tournament time comes around.”

The Cowboys will open the season hosting three-consecutive games inside Gallagher-Iba Arena. OSU will start with a total of five home games, including two exhibition contests which have yet to be determined.

The Drillers cut the six-run deficit in half with three runs in the top of the fifth as Lars Davis led off with a single and scored on a double by Warren Schaeffer. Later in the inning, Charlie Blackmon made it 6-3 with a two-run double.
