FCS Playoffs First RoundThe Matchup -- North Carolina A&T (9-2) at Richmond (8-3)Kickoff -- 2 p.m. ET Saturday at Robins Stadium (8,700) in Richmond, VirginiaCoverage -- ESPN3Series -- First meetingPlayers to Watch -- North Carolina A&T: RB Tarik Cohen (1,518 rushing yards, 339 receiving yards, 19 total TDs), DE Marquis Ragland (44 tackles, 9 TFL), LB Jeremy Taylor (75 tackles, 4 INTs, 8 PBU); Richmond: WR Brian Brown (67 receptions, 1,179 yards, 9 TDs), DT Winston Craig (47 tackles, 7.5 sacks), LB Omar Howard (77 tackles, 8 TFL)The Skinny -- While MEAC teams have lost 19 straight FCS playoff games, North Carolina A&Ts one win in four previous appearances was a huge one -- it beat No. 1 Tennessee State in 1999. The Aggies seek to recover from last weeks 42-21 loss at rival North Carolina Central, which ended their bid to win the MEAC championship and return to the Celebration Bowl. Cohen has 5,549 career rushing yards, the conference record and more than any active player in the FCS. Backup quarterback Oluwafemi Bamiro, who pulled out a four-overtime win at FBS member Kent State in September, has started the last two games because Lamar Raynard has a chest injury. The Aggies have 37 sacks, and 10 different players have at least a pair (DE Angelo Keyes six are the high). Richmond has faced adversity from 12 season-ending injuries, the latest suffered by No. 1 quarterback Kyle Lauletta (torn ACL). If backup David Broadus remains out for a third straight game, untested Jake Clise or Reid Chenault will step in for Lauletta. And if the play calling is scaled back, redshirt freshman running back Deontez Thompson (five 100-yard performances in last six games) will get a big workload. The Spiders defense is ranked third in the FCS in passing yards allowed (156.5 ypg), although the focus will be on stopping Cohen. The Spiders, one of six teams in this years field to have won an FCS title (2008), opened the season by beating Virginia.Up Next -- The winner plays at No. 7 seed North Dakota (9-2) in the second round Dec. 3.Prediction -- With Richmond reeling from the loss of Lauletta, this wouldnt be a big upset if North Carolina A&T ended the MEACs playoff losing streak. The host Spiders will have to win with defense. Richmond 21-17.

BOULDER, Colo. -- Colorado senior Derrick White stared at the stat sheet as he sat down and just grimaced.His coach shared his disgust, especially those 19 turnovers and 15 missed free throws.The stats were made a whole lot more palatable by these numbers -- a 67-55 win over Seattle on Monday night in a regional round of the Legends Classic.That was the definition of winning ugly right there, Colorado coach Tad Boyle said. We were not very good offensively tonight, obviously, on a lot of different levels. But to figure out a way to win on a night when youre not functioning that well offensively is a testament to our guys will and their toughness and our defense and rebounding.The hallmarks of Boyles program have long been defense and rebounding, which never take a night off. The Buffaloes (2-0) held Seattle to 30.2 percent shooting from the floor and out-rebounded the Redhawks by a 55-35 margin.Were in the process of becoming a good team, Boyle said. Were not a good team right now.White scored 15 points and Josh Fortune hit two big 3-pointers down the stretch to lift Colorado. Fortune finished with 12 points, all in the second half, while Wesley Gordon added 11 points and 14 rebounds.We had 19 turnovers ... and we still won, White said. It just goes to show that if we guard and we rebound we can win.Seattle (1-1) was led by Brendan Westendorf, who finished with 17 points.Trailing by a basket early in the second half, Colorado went on a 16-2 run to gain some separation. But the Redhawks pulled to within 54-51 on Westendorfs four-point play with around 6 minutes remaining.Soon after, Fortune entered the game and bailed out the Buffaloes, who finished 3 of 18 from 3-point land. They were also 26 of 41 from the free throw line.Its tough when you get that close and they pull away from you, Westendorf said.Seattle coach Cameron Dollar couldnt agree more.We had some looks but didnt capitalize on it, Dollar said. You have to be able to score a little bit more than we did tonight.BIG PICTURESeattle: As Colorado disscovered, the Redhawks arent limited to preseason All-Western Athletic Conference players Westendorf and William Powell, who was held to four points.ddddddddddddScott Ulaneo had 11 rebounds, forward Emmanuel Chibuogwu scored nine points and 7-foot-3 center Aaron Menzies contributed eight.Colorado: Although the Buffaloes struggled with their long-range shooting, they should get a lift from freshman guard Bryce Peters.

Johnson missed last season as he recovered from a torn Achilles.Its a blessing to be able to play the game again, coming off that Achilles tear, Johnson said. Im just happy to score the basketball.NO DOMBothered by a sore foot, junior guard Dominique Collier didnt play in the second half.If it doesnt get better, the Buffaloes may have to shut him down for a bit.We have to get it healthy and healed, Boyle said. We need him. We need Dom Collier to be effective for us this year.UP NEXTSeattle travels to Notre Dame on Wednesday as part of the Legends Classic.Colorado hosts Louisiana Monroe on Thursday in the second game of the Boulder Regional of the Legends Classic.---More AP college basketball: http://collegebasketball.ap.org ' ' '
