ByJennaFryer The Associated Press JOLIET,ILL. Nonplussedby Joe Gibbs Racing's red-hot ride into NASCAR's play- offs, Kevin Harvick con- fidently predicted they wouldn't get in his way of a second consecutive cham- pionship. "We're going to pound them into the ground," Harvick said of JGR's four- car title push. Instead, it's Harvick who is on the ropes after the opening race of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. Contact with Jimmie Johnson led to a blown tire for Harvick that caused him to crash and finish 42nd Sunday at Chicago- land Speedway, where he had a brief post-race scuf- fle with Johnson. Denny Hamlin, mean- while, won the race for Gibbs and earned an auto- matic berth into the second round of the playoffs. Hamlin declined to com- ment on the irony of Har- vick's situation. "I'm not going to get into a verbal thing," he said. "We're one race in. It didn't work out well for him today." No, it didn't, and Har- vick is last in the 16-driver Chase field with two races before four drivers are eliminated. He minced no words when asked what he needs to do either next week at New Hampshire or Oct. 4 at Dover. "We've just got to go win one of these next two races," Harvick said. He has one career vic- tory, in 2006, at New Hampshire and is win- less at Dover. But he led 163 laps at the last two New Hampshire races and earned a pair of third-place finishes, and he led 314 laps in the last two Dover races and was second there in June. "This Chase, the way it is, it can be taken away from you in a week, it doesn't matter if it's the first week or last week," said Harvick crew chief Rodney Childers. "You just have to go race the next two and see how it works out and go from there." NearFight The contact between Kevin Harvick and Jim- mie Johnson on a restart led to a post-race confron- tation in the motorhome lot between a pair of driv- ers who have known each other since their early days racing in California. It was also expected by Johnson, who knew Har- vick was going to be an- gry with him over the situ- ation. Asked after the race if he planned to speak with the defending champion, Johnson seemed to fore- cast what was ahead. "Hopefully he'll want to talk. There's no telling what he'll want to do," said the six-time champion. NASCAR Harvickonropesa ercrash and confrontation with Johnson down, 187 rushing yards, 7 passing and 7 tackles. Rodriguez had 11 tack- les and 20 receiving yards. Borges had 2 sacks, 4 tackles, recovered 2 fumbles and made 3 of 4 extra point attempts. Mercy, now 1-2 on the sea- son and 1-0 in league play, is scheduled to face a 0-4 Westwood Lumberjacks team at 1 p.m. Saturday at Sacred Heart School. Los Molinos 0, Greenville 18 The Los Molinos Bull- dogs lost Friday evening to the Greenville Indians to fall to 1-2 on the season and 0-1 in league play. Players of the week for the Bulldogs were Jarred Costa overall, Brendon Bledsoe offensive and Cameron Schmidtke de- fensive. Tyler Winter was 6 for 15 for 27 yards passing and rushed for 27 yards on 7 carries. Defensively he had 10 tackles, a sack and a fumble recovery. Alex Russell posted 92 total yards with 7 passing, 74 rushing and 11 receiv- ing. Defensively he had 8 tackles and an intercep- tion. Costa had 62 all purpose yards, with 8 rushing, 16 receiving, 26 on kick re- turns and 12 on punt re- turns. Defensively he had 11 tackles and sack. Bledsoe had 4 tackles and Schmidtke had 6. The Bulldogs will pre- pare this week to face the 0-4 Elk Creek Elks in Elk Creek at 7 p.m. Friday. Roundup FROM PAGE 2 McKenzie for a touchdown with 1:55 left in the half. The half ended with a 35-21 Cardinals lead. Davila ran for a 43-yard score after a Red Bluff turnover, putting Corning up 42-21 with 9:35 left in third. Clawson responded with a couple of long runs before connecting with Pritchard to put the score at 42-27 af- ter a failed conversion. Clawson and Pritchard would pair up again to pull the Spartans within 9, Corning up 42-33 with 4:11 left in third. The Cardinals an- swered with a Devin Wun- sch keeper for a score, put- ting Corning back up 49- 34 at the beginning of the fourth. Clawson brought the Spartans within a score with a 9-yard keeper before Davila extended Corning's lead with his own touch- down. Corning was up 56- 42 with 3:41 left to play. Clawson found Cameron Ortega for a score and the Spartans got the 2-point conversion to pull within 7 with 2:20 left at 56-49. After recovering the on- side kick, the Spartans built on the momentum and drove the ball well, but two long gains were negated by penalties. Facing 3rd and 34 from their own 39, Clawson com- pleted a pair of passes to Loen Langley but came up just short of the first down and the ball went to Corn- ing on downs with just un- der 40 seconds left to play. The game was marked by multiple unsportsman- like conduct calls, largely on the Spartans, and nu- merous personal fouls but there were no ejections and only one scuffle. Studer congratulated his team but offered a warn- ing that the schedule gets tougher starting next week with homecoming against Oroville. Spartans coach Corey Hein said he was happy his team played better on de- fense and that it came back to within a touchdown in the fourth. He looks for- ward to beginning league play next week against Foothill. Shootout FROM PAGE 2 you," Tomsula said Mon- day. "We had some drops. Nothing was glowingly beautiful yesterday. ... It's a 16-week season and we don't need to get on a roll- ercoaster. Keep your head focused, lock your jaw and let's get to work. Own it, fix it, move on." A defense that shined at stopping the Vikings — and pounding Teddy Bridge- water — was suddenly vul- nerable to the deep ball and Ben Roethlisberger's strong, reliable arm, espe- cially on third down. Tomsula, promoted from defensive line coach to replace Jim Harbaugh, took his first loss as a head coach. He won the final game of 2010 as interim head coach after Mike Sin- gletary's firing. And it only gets tougher going forward with a road game at division-leading Arizona before the 49ers host Green Bay, travel to the New York Giants and then play at home against Baltimore and Seattle to round out October. This weekend against the Cardinals, the Niners face another capable, big- play quarterback in Carson Palmer, and he will cer- tainly look to exploit the secondary much like the Steelers did so successfully. "They just flat out beat us. We took it in the chin," defensive lineman Glenn Dorsey said Monday. "We put ourselves in a lot of bad situations uncharacteristic of our defense." Stopping Palmer could prove an enormous chal- lenge given he has thrown seven touchdown passes al- ready for 2-0 Arizona, in- cluding three of his four in Sunday's 48-23 win at Chi- cago to Larry Fitzgerald. 49ers FROM PAGE 2 MLBBASEBALL New York Yankees at Toronto Blue Jays:4p.m.,ESPN.
