CLEMSON, S.C. -- Clemson running back Wayne Gallman said he expects to play against Florida State after suffering a concussion against NC State on Oct. 15, though he wont practice in full pads before Thursday.Im fine, Im ready to play, he said Monday.Gallman went through a concussion protocol during Clemsons bye last week, and while he said he did not experience headaches and does not believe he suffered a concussion, the school had diagnosed him as concussed.Clemson offensive coordinator Tony Elliott was a bit less certain on Gallmans availability.He looks fine and were hopeful, Elliott said.Gallman was knocked unconscious by NC State safety Dravious Wright after catching a pass in the first quarter of the Tigers win two weeks ago, and he said he doesnt remember anything after that until he returned to the training room nearly 20 minutes later. Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said Gallman had argued with trainers that he wanted to stay in the game at the time of the injury, but Gallman said he has no recollection of that.I just remember catching the ball, making the move, going north and after that, I dont remember anything at all until I got back to the training room, Gallman said. It was like I went to sleep and woke up in the training room. I saw a video of myself walking and I dont even remember that.Gallman returned to the sideline in street clothes for the second half of the game, and as Clemsons chances for winning appeared on life support following two red-zone turnovers, he begged Swinney to let him back into the game.A little revenge might also have been on Gallmans mind, too. He said hes seen replays of the hit, which does appear to show some helmet-to-helmet contact, and believes Wrights hit was intentionally dirty.You saw him lead with his head, Gallman said. I wanted somebody to hurt him that was in the game if they could. I wasnt able to be in.Gallman said it was his understanding that Clemson turned the tape into the league for review and the ACC ruled the hit was not targeting. Wright was not penalized for the hit at the time of the play.Gallman set Clemsons single-season rushing record last year and is the teams leading rusher so far this season. After he left the game against NC State, his replacements -- C.J. Fuller, Adam Choice and Tyshon Dye -- rushed 22 times for 67 yards and coughed up a fumble near NC States goal line.Elliott says Fuller will start if Gallman is unavailable.

CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs go for a four-game sweep of Milwaukee on Thursday as they send their ace right-hander against a rising Brewers star.A revived Jake Arrieta (14-5, 2.55 ERA) seeks his third consecutive win since shaking out of a three-loss slump. He will oppose Milwaukee right-hander Zach Davies (9-5, 3.80 ERA).Arrietas focus remains on the big picture as the Cubs set their sights on the National League Central title and a lengthy postseason run.We know what were capable of, Arrieta said following his last victory, a 13-2 decision over the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday. Regardless of how many games you win the division by ... once you get to October, the slates clean. Thats the focus.The Cubs (76-43) enter Thursday with a 12 1/2-game lead over second-place St. Louis, the defending division champ, and 13 1/2 games over the Pittsburgh Pirates.Arrieta faced the Brewers once this season, throwing five innings of one-run ball in a 7-2 victory at Wrigley Field on April 28. For his career against Milwaukee, he is 5-3 with a 2.31 ERA in 10 starts.Arrietas rebound comes at a time when the whole starting staff is performing well.Cubs starters have allowed two or fewer runs in 12 consecutive games, the longest single-season streak in team history. The rotation owns a 1.11 ERA in that stretch, and it is 11-0 with a 1.13 ERA in 15 games this month.Milwaukee, meanwhile, hopes to break out of a three-game losing streak in the series finale behind Davies.Davies, in his second big league season, has been the bright spot in the Brewers rotation. He is the lone current starter with a winning record as he makes his 22nd start of the season and second against Chicago. The 23-year-old beat the Cubs on July 23 at Miller Park, allowing one run on three hits in 6 1/3 innings.ddddddddddddSince going 0-3 in his first three starts, Davies is 9-2 over his past 19 appearances, and he has 11 quality starts for the year. He is 2-0 all-time against the Cubs.When he gets into a groove, he runs through the lineup pretty good, Brewers manager Craig Counsell said recently.Davies is coming off a loss to Cincinnati on Saturday, when he allowed five runs on eight hits in five-plus innings during the Brewers 11-5 defeat.The Chicago club Davies opposes will have some different faces from the one he saw last month, as the Cubs made a series of roster moves Wednesday.They placed outfielder Chris Coghlan (right rib contusion) and right-handed pitcher Joe Smith (left hamstring strain) on the 15-day disabled list. The Cubs also called up right-hander Spencer Patton from Triple-A Iowa. Patton was 1-1 with a 5.11 ERA in nine relief appearances for Chicago earlier this season. He shined with Iowa, recording 11 saves and a 1-0 record with a 0.77 ERA in 34 relief outings.Trevor Cahill, activated from the disabled list to serve as the Cubs 26th man for the Tuesday doubleheader, remained on the roster in one of the vacancies created Wednesday. He worked five scoreless innings during a 4-0 victory over the Brewers (52-67) in Game 1 of the doubleheader.Chicago won the nightcap 4-1, then cruised to a 6-1 victory Wednesday.The Cubs also likely will be without right-hander John Lackey for their weekend series at Colorado. Lackey experienced shoulder tightness in his last start against the Cardinals, so left-hander Mike Montgomery is scheduled to pitch on Saturday in Lackeys place. ' ' '
