LOS ANGELES -- Reggie Bush won a Heisman Trophy and two national championships while playing at the Coliseum for the University of Southern California. Wholesale Mavericks Jerseys .He also won the love of millions of Los Angeles football fans -- and thats something he actually got to keep.Now an NFL veteran on the back stretch of his career, Bush is excited to return to the Coliseum as his Buffalo Bills (2-2) visit the Los Angeles Rams (3-1).Its long overdue, and I think everybody realizes that, Bush said of pro footballs return to the nations second-largest city. Its good that the Rams have gotten back. I think its going to be great.While Bush might not be much of a factor in the Bills game plan, hes still wildly popular in Los Angeles, where coach Pete Carrolls dominant Trojans were the biggest show in town during the NFLs 21-year absence.Bushs jersey is still among the most popular in the crowd at any Trojans game, even after the school officially disassociated itself from the star tailback. USC was hit with heavy NCAA sanctions in 2010 surrounding his familys acceptance of improper benefits.Bush never expected to get the chance to play professionally in the stadium where USC dominated during his heyday, and he still might not suit up for the Bills, who have him near the bottom of the depth chart.But hell be there Sunday along with fellow Trojans-turned-Bills Robert Woods, Nickell Robey-Coleman and Kevon Seymour.Its always important to pass it down, because at some point in time, we all get too old to play, said Bush, who lives in nearby Pacific Palisades with his family in the offseason. But not yet. Im not done yet.The second home game of the Rams homecoming season -- and their final game at the Coliseum until November -- matches two teams off to impressive starts.After knocking off NFC West rivals Seattle and Arizona, the Rams are on just their third three-game winning streak in 10 years and their best start to a season since 2006.Buffalo is coming off impressive back-to-back victories over Arizona and New England. The Bills have won two straight games -- and they havent won three straight since early in the 2011 season.Here are more things to watch when the Bills visit the Coliseum:DEFENSE FIRST: Both teams have built their winning streaks on solid defensive play. The Bills shut out the Patriots last week, while the Rams forced five turnovers and allowed only 13 points to the Cardinals. The offenses of Buffalo and Los Angeles could be overmatched, but the Bills will rely on quarterback Tyrod Taylors mobile playmaking under new offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn. The Rams will try to get a big game from running back Todd Gurley, who has only 216 yards in the first four games.COACHING CONNECTION: Rams coach Jeff Fisher played for defensive expert Buddy Ryan with the Chicago Bears, and he was Buddys defensive coordinator in Philadelphia. He sees elements of the father in the two sons currently running the Bills. They would hang around training camp in Chicago, and Ive followed their careers throughout, Fisher said. Buddy was very, very close with them. That was a hard loss this summer when we lost Buddy. Theyre both outstanding coaches. Theyre passionate. Theyre coaching for their dad right now, I know that. (Rex) is going to have his team ready.RUN IT: Buffalo and Los Angeles have two of the three worst passing offenses in the NFL, so the ground game should be a key for both teams. While the Bills are racking up 123.2 yards rushing per game, the Rams are ranked 30th in the league with four quiet games from Gurley. Defenses have been keying heavily on Gurley this season, and the Bills did a remarkable job in bottling up Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount last week. Offensive coordinator Rob Boras hopes Los Angeles can exploit its opponents imbalance through the passing game.DAREUS RETURN: Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus is back from a four-game suspension for another violation of the NFLs substance abuse policy. The two-time Pro Bowler could be an enormous boost to the Buffalo defense if his mind is in the game, and he pronounced himself ready to roll this week. Im not trying to mess up anything, Dareus said. I just want to come in and be smooth and do what I can, help out where I can, and just be the best person and teammate I can possibly be.DETERMINED DONALD: If Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald is even more disruptive than usual, Bills coach Rex Ryan knows hes probably to blame. Donald acknowledged this week that he hadnt forgotten Ryans dismissive comments about his Pro Bowl selection two years ago, calling the words disrespectful. Donald was the NFCs defensive player of the week last week.---AP Sports Writer John Wawrow in Buffalo contributed to this report.---AP NFL websites: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Jalen Brunson Jersey .

Dont be surprised if theres a sequel. Recari rolled in a 12-foot birdie putt on the 14th hole to take the lead for good and hung on to hold off Creamer for her third LPGA Tour title. They started the day tied and spent most of the day trading the lead -- as if it were match play. The duel in the heat in suburban Toledo might have been foreshadowing for when both players participate in next months Solheim Cup at the Colorado Golf Club, Recari for the European side and Paula Creamer for the United States. "Back and forth, back and forth," Recari said of their Sunday showdown. "It totally felt like the Solheim Cup." Recari and Creamer, who won the tournament then known as the Jamie Farr Toledo Classic five years ago, started the day tied for first, three shots ahead of their nearest pursuers. They traded the lead -- never separated by more than one stroke -- and were still even until Recari birdied the par-3 14th. The 26-year-old Recari closed with a 5-under 66 to finish at 17-under 267. She missed a 6-foot birdie putt on the 17th, but made a clutch 5-footer for par at the 18th. Creamer, who was seeking her 10th career win and first since the 2010 U.S. Womens Open, finished with a 67. She said she gave it everything she had. "My goodness, there were so many great shots played today," Creamer said. "Do I wish I could go back and maybe change a couple of things here and there? Yes. But I played great. Beatriz just played one shot better." Jodi Ewart Shadoff (66) shared third place at 13 under with Lexi Thompson, who shot a 67 and had a hole-in-one that won the 18-year-old a car. Next came Angela Stanford (67) and Jacqui Cocolino (70) at 19 under. Meena Lee had the days low round, a 62, and was with amateur sensation Lydia Ko (68), Toledo-born Stacy Lewis (64), Jennifer Johnson (66) and Chie Arimura (71) at 9 under. Playing in the same threesome, Creamer took the lead twice with birdies -- on the third and fifth holes -- and each time Recari came right back with a birdie on the next hole to knot things. At the seventh hole, Creamer hit her approach to 6 feet and appeared to have a certain birdie, but Recari rolled in a 15-footer before she could. Still in lockstepp through 13 holes, there was a lot of fireworks on the 181-yard, par-3 14th. Dirk Nowitzki Jersey. Recari hit her hybrid to 12 feet and Creamers shot ended up 25 feet away. The third member of their group, Thompson, the budding 18-year-old American star-in-the-making, then holed her 6-iron to win a new car. She slapped high fives with her caddie, then happily accepted congratulations from everyone along the rope line all the way to the green. After Creamer almost rolled in her lengthy birdie putt, Recari took the lead for good by making hers. The two then traded birdies at the par-4 16th. Creamers wedge to the green left her just 3 feet away, but Recari rammed in a 25-foot uphill birdie putt to negate Creamers eventual 3 on the hole. "I had a really good read," Recari said. "I stroked it and the hole got in the way." The drama continued at the 17th, the first of back-to-back par-5 closing holes. Creamer laid up with a wedge. Recari then pulled out a hybrid and uncharacteristically went for the green, pulling it slightly to the left where it ended up in the rough. Creamer then hit a wedge to 12 feet and Recari skied a flop shot that ended up 6 feet away. But after Creamer barely missed on the low side, Recari missed a chance to stretch the lead to two shots when she pushed her birdie try. "In all that golf out there, its kind of funny how it all comes down to the wire," Creamer said. At the par-5 closing hole, Creamer found trouble in the trees to the left off the tee, but recovered to hit her second into light rough on the right side. Both then misfired on their approach shots, Creamers running through the green to the first cut and Recari flying the green to light rough. Recari chipped to 5 feet past the hole before Creamer missed her 20-foot birdie putt from the fringe. With the tournament on the line, Recari then stroked in her par putt for her second victory of the season. In March, she won the Kia Classic in Carlsbad, Calif., beating I.K. Kim with a birdie on the second hole of a playoff. "I was definitely shaky on the last putt," she said. "I knew I had to make it to win and avoid a playoff. A playoff is always nerve-racking." When the Marathon Classic trophy didnt show up immediately after the awards ceremony, Recari joked she had hidden it. "I kept it!" she said, laughing. ' ' '
