EDINBURGH -- England comfortably avoided a banana-skin possibility in dispatching Scotland 20-0 in Six Nations rugby on Saturday. Englands only win in the four most recent trips north had been tight, and Scotland was expected after losing 28-6 to Ireland six days ago to show some venom against its archrival. But Scotland was just as tthless as it was in Dublin, on a parasite-infested Murrayfield pitch not worthy of a test. The English, unchanged from the narrow opening loss to France, justified their coaches trust by winning the Calcutta Cup for a fifth straight time and giving the ball surprising width for due reward. Centre Luther Burrell and fullback Mike Brown scored the tries, and England could afford for Owen Farrell to make only half his goalkicks. Scotland scrumhalf Greig Laidlaw, retained ahead of Chris Cusiter for his goalkicking and made captain, missed his two chances, both in the first half when his desperately outclassed side needed a bst. After two games on the road, England was set for the home match with undefeated Ireland in two weeks. "Ireland have played really well, but were confident also," England coach Stuart Lancaster said. In keeping Scotland scoreless in this fixture for the first time since 1978, Brown said, "The forwards put an outstanding shift in. Faz (Farrell) at 10 and DC (Danny Care) at nine just pulling the strings, it was overall outstanding." Scotland hasnt scored a try in four straight tests, three of them at home, and travels next to Italy, where it hasnt won in eight years. The statistics made dire reading for Scotland: 16 penalties conceded, 14 turnovers, 5 lineouts lost and one telescope to see where Englands 22 was. "Youre not going to win with a lineout that doesnt work," Cusiter said. "We just couldnt get anything going. We seemed to be committing t many to rucks, not getting any fast ball, and we started missing tackles at the end. We just could never put them under pressure. Its hugely disappointing." The Scots didnt start either half well. Duncan Weir bted the kickoff straight out on the full, and in the second half Scotland lost another of its throw-ins and was backed up to its 22. In between, England cruised without feeling any pressure. Farrell missed a penalty out front when his planted left ft slipped, but Care kicked a 30-meter dropped goal with aplomb for the first points. Scotland was penalized for interfering with Billy Twelvetrees, giving England an attacking lineout 10 metres out, and England rolled the maul with utter patience. Care squared off the ruck and Burrell timed his run into the gap expertly, and was tackled t late. Farrell converted, then Laidlaw missed his second penalty attempt, hitting the post for a second straight match. Farrell kicked another penalty in the 29th, and almost put the match away seconds before halftime, with a step off his left ft, dummy and clean break. Burrell came up his inside and was stopped by Scotland winger Sean Lamont in front of the left post. England, up 13-0, changed into clean shirts at the break but they didnt stay white for long. No. 8 Billy Vunipola rampaged up the middle, offloaded to Brown, and Jonny May received an overlap on the left wing. May was foiled, but Scotland centre Alex Dunbar was sin-binned. It tk seven minutes for England to make the man advantage count, and even then the long buildup lked to have broken down on the left wing. But winger Jack Nowell picked up the dropped ball, shimmied past several tackles and fed Brown to sct in with a fist pump. There was still a quarter to go, but England wasnt fussed. Scotland had nothing. Greg Pateryn Wild Jersey . 25 against Miami. Hillis left Browns Stadium about two hours before kickoff, a decision that has led to speculation he was upset over ongoing negotiations with the club on a contract extension.

Jefferson has averaged 14.5 points, 4.West Lafayette, IN (SportsNetwork.com) - Rapheal Davis scored a career-high 24 points, including the game-winning 3-pointer in the final minute, and Purdue got a bst from seldom-used wing Basil Smotherman to knock off No. 25 Iowa on Saturday, 67-63. With Kendall Stephens left hand heavily wrapped because of a broken finger, Smotherman saw extended minutes and tk advantage, providing 13 points on 5- of-6 shting and pulling down the games two biggest defensive rebounds. Purdue held a two-point lead following Davis 3 with 45 seconds remaining, and Smotherman flew in to grab Mike Gesells missed jumper at the other end. After he split a pair from the foul line, Peter Jok launched a triple and again Smotherman went up high to haul it in. He made 1-of-2 from the stripe once more, producing the final tally. Purdues center tandem of A.J. Hammons and Isaac Haas added 23 points between them on 9-of-11 from the field. The win snaps a 13-game losing streak against ranked teams for Purdue (12-8, 4-3 Big Ten). Iowa nearly overcame the loss of star forward Aaron White thanks to late heroics by Gesell and a dominant effort on the glass, but ultimately fell short. White, Iowas leading scorer and rebounder, left the game in the first half with a right shoulder stinger. Gesell scored 12 of his 18 points in the games final six minutes, and Gabriel Olaseni pulled down a career-best 16 rebounds, including 11 on the offensive end. Iowa (13-7, 4-3) had 24 offensive rrebounds as a team.dddddddddddd White scored four points during a 10-2 start for Iowa, but Purdue answered with the next nine. White got injured during the run, and Purdue was the better team for the rest of the half. Smothermans reverse layup at 6:08 and transition dunk three minutes later during a 10-1 run were his first two field goals in conference play. He also hit his second 3-pointer of the season early in the second half and followed it up with another reverse layup. The Hawkeyes trailed by 10 at halftime but wouldnt go away despite playing the entire second half without White. Josh Oglesby hit from deep at 13:17 to cut the deficit to four, and an Anthony Clemmons free throw near the 11:00 mark of the period had it within three. Gesell then came alive, scoring eight straight Iowa points, relentlessly attacking the basket over a two-plus minute period that led into the games final media timeout and had the Hawkeyes within two at 61-59. After Jon Octeus split a pair from the line, Gesell went right at Hammons with a high-arcing layup to get Iowa within one. He then hit a pull-up jumper on the next trip, making it 63-62 in favor of the Hawkeyes. Davis answered the his 3-ball, and the Boilermakers survived. Game Notes Smotherman was 0-for-5 shting in conference play before this game ... Purdue has won seven straight home games in the series ... Iowa held a 46-31 advantage on the glass. ' ' '
