Quarterback changes are nothing new in football.We all remember Jason Street to Matt Saracen. Saracen to J.D. McCoy. And McCoy back to Saracen, and so on. (Yeah, it was fictional. But come on; didnt you feel for Matty?)Well, folks are feeling for Tony Romo after he officially ceded his starting spot to rookie Dak Prescott in a somber press conference. The passing of the baton in Dallas is reminiscent of many past NFL QB successions.How well do you remember those controversial decisions? Time to put it to the test:Steve Young, Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers all wound up winning Super Bowls after their elevation to QB1, so things could set up nicely for Prescott as the future of Americas Team.And dont feel too bad for Romo. Drew Brees, a Super Bowl champ in 2010, and Alex Smith, a regular playoff participant in K.C., have had varying success in their second chapter after being usurped on the depth chart.Frank Robinson Jersey .Y. -- Bills receiver Stevie Johnson has a bone to pick with the NFL schedule maker.

Newcastle dominated in the early stages but City weathered the storm and then raised its game in extra time. Negredo broke the deadlock from close range after a simple move in the 99th minute before Dzeko took the ball round goalkeeper Tim Krul to seal the victory in the 105th.CHARLESTON, S.C. -- Josh Hart scored 11 of his 15 points in the second half as No. 3 Villanova stared down UCF and 7-foot-6 center Tacko Fall to win the Charleston Classic with a 67-57 victory Sunday night.The Wildcats opened 5-0 for a fourth straight season, using their experience to pass around the middle and their tenacity to chase down loose balls that Fall couldnt corral.The result was the fourth in-season tournament title for Villanova in as many seasons, the defending national champions running their November record the past four years to 24-0.Fall did his part for the Knights (3-1) with 20 points on 10-of-10 shooting and 13 rebounds -- he was 26 of 31 with 34 rebounds in three games at TD Arena. The rest of his teammates shot less than 33 percent as Villanova took a 12-point lead at halftime and kept a comfortable margin the rest of the way.UCF closed to 37-32 on Matt Williams basket with 16 minutes left. Then the Wildcats took off on a 12-3 run to extend the lead. Hart had a jumper and his only 3-pointer in the surge. The Knights never got within single digits after that.Villanova freshman Donte DiVincenzo had 13 points. Jalen Brunson and Kris Jenkins added 12 apiece.Wiilliams had 17 points for UCF.ddddddddddddBIG PICTUREVillanova: The Wildcats showed their resiliency and skill in battering three opponents in Charleston, all by double digits. If youre nitpicking for a deficiency, it might be a lack of height. At 6-foot-9, Darryl Reynolds played the center spot most of the weekend and fronted Fall in this one, fouling out after 26 minutes of action.UCF: The Knights picture is always big with Fall, the tallest player in the game. The school says he is among the 40 tallest people in the world, too. But UCFs offense at times doesnt run through Fall, maybe because hes still developing his passing skills down low. If that happens, look for the Knights and Fall to take off as he becomes a more versatile player.UP NEXTVillanova heads home to play the College of Charleston. After the teams spent the past four days crisscrossing each other at TD Arena, they head to Philadelphia to play Wednesday night.UCF begins a two-game homestand against Seattle on Saturday night.---More AP college basketball: www.collegebasketball.ap.org ' ' '
