Let It Ride
Good bye, hard life
Don't cry would you let it ride?
Good bye, hard life
Don't cry would you let it ride?
You can't see the mornin', but I can see the light
Try, try, try let it ride
While you've been out runnin' I've been waitin' half the night
Try, try, try let it ride
And would you cry if I told you that I lied and would you say goodbye or
Would you let it ride?
And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride?
Seems my life is not complete I never see you smile
Try, try, try let it ride
Baby you want the forgivin' kind and that's just not my style
Try, try, try let it ride
And would you cry if I told you that I lied and would you say goodbye or
Would you let it ride?
And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride?
I've been doin' things worthwhile, you've been bookin' time
Try, try, try let it ride
And would you cry if I told you that I lied and would you say goodbye or
Would you let it ride?
And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride?
Would you let it ride
Would you let it ride
Would you let it ride
Would you let it ride
Try, try, try let it ride
Try, try, try let it ride
Try, try, try let it ride
Try, try, try let it ride
Try, try, try let it ride
Try, try, try let it ride
Try, try, try let it ride
Try, try, try let it ride
Try, try, try let it ride
Would you let it ride?
Would you let it ride?
Would you let it ride?
Would you let it ride?

Florida: 2017 Outback Bowl Champions
TAMPA, Fla. -- Austin Appleby threw for 222 yards and two touchdowns, helping No. 20 Florida end a two-game losing streak with a 30-3 rout of No. 21 Iowa in the Outback Bowl on Monday.
Mark Thompson scored on an 85-yard pass play in the first half and Appleby, a graduate transfer who spent the past four seasons at Purdue, tossed a 6-yard TD pass to DeAndre Goolsby to break the game open late in the third quarter. Chauncey Gardner, Jr., returned the first of his two fourth-quarter interceptions 58 yards for a 24-3 lead.
Florida (9-4) rebounded from lopsided losses to archrival Florida State and No. 1 Alabama, scoring more points on Iowa (8-5) than the Hawkeyes allowed to Michigan, Illinois and Nebraska combined while ending the regular season on a three-game winning streak.
Iowa's C.J. Beathard led an early field goal drive, and managed to get his team close to the end zone on two other occasions. Florida's defense stiffened both times, stopping the Hawkeyes on downs at the Gator 3 in the second quarter and forcing them to settle for a 30-yard field goal that sailed wide right midway through the third quarter.
Appleby, who actually began his career at Purdue against Iowa, shrugged off throwing interceptions on Florida's first two drives of the day to finish 14 of 25 passing.
Akrum Wadley ran for 115 yards, giving Iowa a pair of 1,000-yard rushers in the same season for the first time. The junior finished with 1,081, and LeShun Daniels wound up with 1,058 after gaining 45 Monday.
THE TAKEAWAY
Florida: The Gators could be looking at having to replace at least three stalwarts on defense -- tackle Caleb Brantley and cornerbacks Jalen Tabor and Quincy Wilson -- who are expected to leave school early to enter the NFL draft. Linebacker Alex Anzalone and defensive back Duke Dawson also are considering turning pro.
Iowa: Like Florida's Tabor and Wilson, cornerback Desmond King is a likely high NFL draft pick. He won the Jim Thorpe Award as the nation's top defensive back as a junior and was just as good this year, though opponents' reluctance to throw his way -- three interceptions this season vs. eight in 2015 -- may have hurt his chances to win the award again as a senior. The Hawkeyes will also lose quarterback C.J. Beathard, who finished his career 21-7 as a starter.
TURNING POINT
Beathard directed the best drive of the game by either team, moving Iowa from its own 36 to inside the Florida 10 with help from runs of 27 yards by Akrum Wadley and 11 yards by LeShun Daniels, plus an 18-yard pass to tight end George Kittle on third-and-14 from the Gators 28. Three plays later, Beathard dropped back to throw before scrambling for a 6-yard gain near the goal line. The Hawkeyes thought he scored, but officials ruled him down at the 1. Daniels was dropped for a 2-yard loss on fourth down. Florida snapped the 3-3 tie less than six minutes later, when Thompson scored on the longest reception and TD in Outback Bowl history.
UP NEXT
Florida: Opens next season Sept. 2 against Michigan in Arlington, Texas.
Iowa: Wyoming visits Iowa City for season opener on Sept. 2.
Arkansas State: 2016 Cure Bowl Champions
ORLANDO, Fla. -- Arkansas State senior wide receiver Kendall Sanders admits that he was pushed by his coaches and even teammates when he didn't want to be at times this season.
The Texas transfer came around as the Red Wolves' season progressed in his lone year with the program. Sanders finally put it all together in his final appearance Saturday night, catching five passes for 127 yards and three touchdowns in a 31-13 rout of UCF in the AutoNation Cure Bowl.
It was almost like vindication for Sanders who missed two years of football after leaving the Longhorns under the controversy of a sexual assault case in which he was acquitted last year.
"I just had to continue to fight," said Sanders, who also took home the Cure Bowl MVP. "I just thank God for giving me another opportunity and I just tried to make the best of it."
Sanders speed opened up opportunities for big plays all night with quarterback Justice Hansen connecting with Sanders on touchdown passing plays of 12, 75 and 17 yards for a career night. His 75-yard touchdown reception on the third play of the second half set the tone for remainder of the game as the Red Wolves (8-5) went up by a commanding 24-10 just 51 seconds into the third quarter.
Sanders got by the safety, broke a tackle and outran the secondary to the end zone.
"Initially in my route I had to run a 20-yard route but I had just had the conversation with him (Hansen) and he was like just get past the safety," Sanders said. "So I kind of cut it short and tried to past the safety so he could see me and he hit me right in stride. From there I just used my God-given abilities."
It was a fitting ending to college career that was about perseverance.
"I really don't think he started out the season with too much confidence, he was rusty and had to get his feet underneath him," Arkansas State coach Blake Anderson said. "What you've seen him do the last five or six weeks he started playing better and better. That explosive play we had on the very first series of the second half, we desperately needed that to gain the momentum back."
The Red Wolves also received major contributions from their defense and special teams.
Arkansas State's defensive front, led by defensive end Ja'Von Rolland-Jones, swarmed UCF quarterback McKenzie Milton all night, giving him little time to find open receivers. But the special teams unit also came through big, contributing two turnovers that led to touchdowns and also blocking a punt for a touchdown.
"When you look at a team that is as good (defensively) as Central Florida is you know special teams has to come up huge," said Anderson.
For first-year UCF coach Scott Frost the biggest takeaway was learning how much more his team has to grow to take the next step.
"We got to get a lot better," said Frost, who team finished the year 6-7. "I think our payers gave us absolutely all they had and I think this group got about everything they could out of themselves."
TAKEAWAY
UCF: Clearly, Frost wasn't comfortable letting Milton throw the ball down field and that hurt the offense. Jawon Hamilton found little running room with Arkansas State stacking the box and the short passing game to Tre'Quan Smith rarely produced the desired results in a disappointing showing in front of the Knights home crowd.
Arkansas State: While the special teams units made most of the highlight plays, the defense was dominant throughout. Defensive end Ja'Von Rolland-Jones and linebacker Chris Odom kept the pressure on Milton and didn't give Hamilton any running lanes.
UP NEXT
UCF: The Knights could be a contender for the American Athletic Conference title next year but Milton has to take some big steps, especially with his mechanics. Too often he throws off his back foot which leaves passes well short of the receiver. Defensively Frost will have to find a way to replace his entire secondary.
Arkansas State: The Red Wolves lose quite a bit along the offensive line and on defense, but they have enough explosive players to run their string of postseason appearances to seven next season.
Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks: 2016 NRL Premiers
Cronulla have ended a half-century premiership drought with a heart-stopping 14-12 grand final win over a valiant Storm outfit to claim the 2016 NRL Telstra Premiership – the first in the club's history.
The two heavyweights could barely be separated after 80 minutes with Melbourne bashed and starved of football in a one-sided opening 40 before storming back like a true champion team to claim the lead just 15 minutes from full time before a late rally handed Cronulla a famous win.
Cronulla players collapsed after a dramatic final play movement from Melbourne saw the ball pass through countless pairs of hands as they searched for the miracle play to still a win on the final siren but on a historic night at ANZ Stadium in front of a heaving crowd of 83,625 it was Cronulla's fairytale that came true.
Skipper Paul Gallen – the most experienced player ever to play in his first grand final – was in tears after the siren as he expressed his gratitude to his teammates.
The Storm were left to rue a below-par kicking game and a horror 60-40 opening half possession rate while for Cronulla, monster individual games from the likes of Matt Prior, Andrew Fifita, Jack Bird and Luke Lewis underpinned their win. Storm skipper Cameron Smith tackled himself to a standstill making 74 tackles in a typically herculean effort but it wasn't quite enough.
The opening to the game was as physical as anyone would have expected, with Jesse Bromwich pounded backwards off the first hit-up and Jordan McLean collared high – receiving a penalty in the process – from the second play.
A heap of pressure from the physical Sharks and a below-par kicking game from the Storm resulted in Melbourne holding just 40 per cent of the ball and being forced to make 90 more tackles (240-150) in the opening 40.
However that wasn't reflected on the score board with Cronulla taking just an 8-0 lead to the break.
A swinging arm from Marika Koroibete on Chad Townsend in the sixth minute resulted in the first of several flare-ups and a Maloney penalty goal.
A brilliant – and rare – scrumbase move from Paul Gallen sent Ben Barba over for the opening try in the 15th minute with the 8-0 score not added to before the break.
Flanagan had a headache on his hands when centre Jack Bird hyper-extended his elbow when landed on by Gallen in a tackle midway through the first half and was in great discomfort but battled on.
A head clash between Wade Graham and Kenny Bromwich rattled both but only Bromwich was taken from the field for a concussion check.
A couple of great efforts from Sosaia Feki in his own in-goal helped deny Melbourne repeat sets they may otherwise have earned while Cronulla's rushing defence denied the Storm back three similar chances at the other end in edging the opening-half drop-outs three to one.
Melbourne had to absorb a sustained avalanche of Cronulla possession at their line in the final five minutes of the half in a period that saw another flare-up when Michael Ennis congratulated Cam Smith after Smith fumbled a kick, which resulted in Ennis being knocked over by Jordan McLean.
The end result though was a heartening survival for Craig Bellamy's team in escaping further first-half damage on the score-board.
Cronulla's failure to press their advantage while they had it began to look more telling as attrition became a factor in the second half.
The Storm started to get a better share of possession, Sosaia Feki – who had been one of his team's best to that point – was taken from the field with a leg injury while another of Cronulla's best in Matt Prior went for a concussion check.
Losing both of those players within 10 minutes of the resumption was quickly followed by a try to Jesse Bromwich against the run of play as he spun through a goal-line tackle to plant the ball and suddenly at 8-6 the Storm were miraculously on a level pegging.
Jason Bukuya knocked himself out shortly after lowering his head awkwardly in a tackle leaving – temporarily – just a single fit player on the Sharks bench.
When Will Chambers stepped out of an attempted Gerard Beale tackle to score in the 64th minute the Storm earned the lead for the first time in the game and Cronulla were looking rattled.
But the game found a way to take another twist and a pair of penalties against the Storm – the second for a high shot against Christian Welch in front of the posts – gave Cronulla a free attacking set and Andrew Fifita found a way to crash over and regain the lead with a tense final 10 minutes remaining.
Both teams were out on their feet and when the Storm forced a line drop out had the chance to mount a final challenge but a Jesse Bromwich drop put the fire out.
The Storm however had a gilt-edged chance to steal the win when Chambers regathered his own grubber after a right-side break but he failed to spot a supporting Cooper Cronk and a premiership-winning try went begging.
In the frantic dying moments the Storm had one last chance with a play that went through countless pairs of hands and traversed both sides of the field but the Sharks defence scrambled one last time to hang on to a famous, drought-breaking win.
Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks 14 (Ben Barba, Andrew Fifita tries; James Maloney 3 goals) defeated Melbourne Storm 12 (Jesse Bromwich, Will Chambers tries; Cameron Smith 2 goals) at ANZ Stadium. Half time: Cronulla 8-0. Crowd: 83,625.
