| Brett Rypien grew up in a crimson family 90 minutes north of the Washington State campus where his uncle Mark is immortalized in the schools athletic hall of fame as part of the great lineage of Cougars quarterbacks.Rypien was a record-setting prep quarterback at the same high school where his uncle was a star, and the choice of where he played collegiately was based on where he wanted to go, not who came to find him. Going to Washington State was not what Rypien wanted, however.He didnt want to always face the comparisons to what his uncle did at the school three decades ago. He wanted his own college experience.So when Rypien finally chose to play at Boise State, he avoided the endless comparisons to his uncle. But he was also stepping into a different kind of shadow.It let me step out of Marks shadow and into Kellen Moores, Rypien joked this week.All kidding aside, there will be strife in the Rypien family this weekend when Washington State travels to face Boise State. What was initially supposed to be the marquee non-conference opportunity for Boise State this season is now also a seemingly must-win game for the Cougars after they got stunned at home by Eastern Washington on the opening weekend.While the Cougars were getting shocked by an FCS program in Week 1 for the second straight year, Rypien was putting up numbers in the Broncos opener at Louisiana that make Boise State fans salivate over whats to come with the young quarterback. Rypien threw for 304 yards in the first half as Boise State scored touchdowns on five of its first seven possessions. Rypien finished with 347 yards passing, the sixth time in his young career that hes topped the 300-yard mark.Last season was supposed to be a year of watching for Rypien. He was going to follow the plan Boise State used with Moore -- redshirt as a freshman -- before taking charge of the program. Moore went on to be the winningest quarterback in FBS history, leading the Broncos to 50 wins in his four seasons at Boise State, throwing for nearly 15,000 yards and 143 touchdowns.That plan to follow what Moore did lasted all of three games. When Ryan Finley went down with an ankle injury in the first half against Idaho State and the team realized it was going to be a significant injury, the call went out to Rypien.You think youre redshirting and then all of a sudden youre thrown into the fire, Rypien said. It was kind of a blur to be honest.Rypien finished last season leading the Mountain West with 3,353 yards passing and was the conference freshman of the year. He threw for 506 yards against New Mexico and capped his year with 377 yards passing and three touchdowns in the Poinsettia Bowl blowout of Northern Illinois.There is a tremendous amount of stuff hes got to get better at from fundamentals to understanding to situational football to leading and these are all things that have been addressed, Boise State coach Bryan Harsin said. And the thing about Brett is I wouldnt say the way he played was always the most impressive, but the most impressive thing is what hes done since hes played to put himself in a better position this year, hopefully.This is the only week there will be strained allegiances in the Rypien family. Mark, who was a first-team all-Pac-10 quarterback at Washington State and later a Super Bowl MVP, has been an invaluable resource for his nephew on various football-related issues in the past. He even flew out to Virginia last September when Brett made his first career start against the Cavaliers.I know its going to be difficult on him. Hes already told me, he hopes I throw for a lot of yards in that game, but we lose by three, Brett Rypien said. I know where his heart is at for sure, but its going to be tough, I think, on him.---Online: AP College Football site: http://collegefootball.ap.org/ Nets Jerseys China .

From Pierre LeBrun While Anaheim GM Bob Murray said earlier this season he was not going to trade Jonas Hiller despite the fact hes an unrestricted free agent on July 1, some sources have told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun that Murray might be willing to move another goalie. RIO DE JANEIRO -- British Open champion Henrik Stenson is close enough to think about adding an Olympic gold medal to his silver claret jug.He just took a long and wild route to get himself into contention on Friday.Marcus Fraser of Australia got off to a quick start, stretched his lead to four shots at one point, and wound up with a 2-under 69 for the 36-hole lead in the first Olympic golf competition since 1904. He had a one-shot lead over Thomas Pieters of Belgium, a former NCAA champion who closed with three straight birdies.Still, it was the sight of Stenson on the leaderboard that was hard to ignore.Only a month ago, the 40-year-old Swede won his first major and got his name on the claret jug at Royal Troon with the lowest score in major championship history. On Friday, he had a 68 to go into the weekend at Olympic Golf Course just two shots behind and in the final group.But this was hardly a masterpiece.In the wind and a hard rain, Stenson had to hit 4-wood to reach the green on the second hole and made a 60-foot birdie putt. He hit into the water on the next hole and still had a full 4-wood just to reach the front part of the green. Stenson made a par putt from 108 feet.Youre just standing there, praying for a two-putt bogey. Before I know it, it found the bottom of the cup, Stenson said. Thats the longest putt Ive made in my career. First of all, its hard to get a putt that long on any green in the world.He followed by duffing a tee shot and making bogey, and it was a relief to play what he called ordinary golf until another wild finish.Stenson had a three-putt bogey, followed by two birdies, and then a tee shot he missed so badly that it came up 30 yards short and into a bunker for a bogey on the par-3 17th. He finished his round with a delicate pitch from a drop area, but only after his caddie had to ask Brazilian fans in the bleachers around the 18th green to move 20 feet because their shadows were dancing around his golf ball.Three-under is not a bad score out there, especially not with that first five or six holes in those conditions, Stenson said. All in all, happy with that. I didnt play as solid as I did yesterday, but were still in the race and still in good position halfway through the tournament.Golf hasnt been ppart of the Games in 112 years, so none of these players grew up dreaming about an Olympic medal.ddddddddddddFor someone like Stenson, the highest-ranked player in the 60-man field, his current results are like getting through the preliminary heats in a traditional Olympic sport.Then again, not even he knows what to expect out of his game. No other Olympic sport has so many contenders.Its not like some of the other sports where if you jump a certain distance or swim at a certain time, you can pretty much figure out who is going to win and finish second and third, Stenson said earlier this week. Ours is a bit more down to the form for the week and on any given day.At the halfway point, Olympic golf was starting to take shape.Fraser was at 10-under 132 -- another day, another Olympic record. Of course, given how long the sport has been absent from the Games, new marks are being set every day. The Australian caught only a little of the nasty weather, and it didnt last long before the sun came out. Fraser built a four-shot lead before dropping two shots, including the reachable par-4 16th, where it took him two chips to reach the green.Playing with Stenson on Saturday could be intimidating, through Fraser saw it differently.Any time you play with Stenson on the weekend, you know youre doing something right.Pieters made up a lot of ground in a hurry by driving just through the green on the 16th for a two-putt birdie from 75 feet, holing a 15-foot birdie on the 17th and then two-putting from just off the green on the par-5 18th.Justin Rose of Britain and Gregory Bourdy of France each shot 69 and were four shots behind.The Americans, the only country with four players, were still lingering. Matt Kuchar had a 70 and was seven shots behind, following by Bubba Watson (67) at 2-under 140 and Patrick Reed (69) nine shots back.Rickie Fowler was still near the bottom. Even with actor Matthew McConaughey following along, Fowler made three bogeys on the back nine and had to settle for a 71, leaving him 14 shots out of the lead. Barring a low round Saturday, he likely will leave Rio with plenty of selfies, but no medals.
