a mess in a lot of ways, but its one of the only times well get to

West Indies captain Darren Sammy says his side is driven by a lack of respect from their detractors. Sammy was in bullish mood on the eve of the World Twenty20 final against England, cracking jokes throughout his press conference - but he also hit back passionately at critics of the team.The Windies boast some of T20 crickets most dangerous and experienced players and are ranked No 2 in the world, but were not rated among the favourites in India and had few high-profile advocates. Sammy and England captain Eoin Morgan share a joke Broadcaster Mark Nicholas dismissed them as being short of brains in a tournament preview, words which have fuelled them on their charge to the final.People paint us as money-grabbing cricketers because of our success in T20 cricket but still they dont respect us in this format, Sammy said.Everybody is entitled to their opinion. But whatever they say it doesnt really matter. How could you describe people with no brains. Animals (have) got brains. Were not an object.To me that particular comment really set it off for us. To describe our team, who were defending champions two years ago, as guys with no brains is really out of order.Gods dont love the ugly. Were very wonderfully, beautifully made and thats why we play exciting cricket.

Sky Live: England v West Indies England and the West Indies will battle to become the first two-time winners of the World Twenty20 We are always David. David is a winner, he said. Even now I still think people dont give us a chance. Goliath is big and strong but David defeated him with one shot.We will always see ourselves as David. We will play like David, be smart about it, believe in ourselves in the dressing room. Watch the West Indies players celebrate in style after their World T20 semi-final win over India If we do all these things we know we could do with that belief, were going to lift the cup.The West Indies Champion dance has gained cult status since they arrived at the competition, enthusiastically aired after every victory and even in defeat alongside Afghanistan.They were also filmed performing their moves in the lobby of the team hotel following their victory over India, and Sammy is already anticipating the merriment that would follow victory on Sunday. Sammy, Dwayne Bravo and Chris Gayle perform the Champions dance Just thinking about lifting that cup tomorrow, I can almost foresee whats going to happen after.

HOUSTON -- The Houston Cougars quite enjoyed playing spoiler on Thursday night with their playoff hopes long since gone.Duke Catalon scored three touchdowns and Houston hurried and harassed Heisman favorite Lamar Jackson all night to propel the Cougars to a stunning 36-10 victory over No. 3 Louisville that dashed the Cardinals playoff chances.I think our guys, they embrace the underdog role, Houston coach Tom Herman said. When were healthy, when were fresh and we have that chip on our shoulder against big time opponents ... we dont change the way we prepare for these kind of games, but I do think our guys have an added motivation.Louisville (9-2) entered the game ranked fifth in the College Football Playoff rankings, but was outdone by a Houston team that saw its own playoff hopes foiled by two losses to unranked teams after a 5-0 start .Showing the world once again that Houston is the greatest school, a great place to be, a great environment, Houston defensive tackle Ed Oliver said. We work hard for everything that we ever had and will have. Were legit. Were go-getters. No matter the task, we always come through the other side.The victory was Houstons second this season over a team ranked third after the Cougars (9-2) knocked off Oklahoma to open the season and it was their fourth straight win over a top-10 team.Things went wrong quickly for the mistake-prone Cardinals when they fumbled awau the opening kickoff. Greg Ward threw his first touchdown pass on the next play to make it 7-0. Brandon Radcliff lost a fumble later in the first and Houston added a field goal on the ensuing drive to make it 10-0.Jackson threw for 211 yards and a touchdown, but it didnt come until the second half.That was a heck of a football team in Louisville and a heck of a player in Lamar Jackson, Herman said. Still in my opinion, nothings changed. Thats the best player in college football, and our defense did a good job of putting pressure on him.Houston then scored touchdowns on three straight possessions in the second quarter to push the lead to 31-0 at halftime.dddddddddddd. Catalon caught a touchdown pass, ran for another score and Houston got the third score in that span on a 50-yard pass by receiver Linell Bonner after a lateral.Louisville opened the second half with a 12-yard touchdown pass by Jackson, but he fumbled in the red zone on the next possession to ruin a chance to close the gap.The Cougars were in Jacksons face constantly, sacking him a season-high 11 times and keeping him from hurting them with his feet. He ran for a season-low 33 yards after piling up 338 yards rushing combined in the last two games. The 11 sacks were tied for the most allowed in the country this season.Honestly, we try to do this every week, linebacker Steven Taylor said. It just felt good for us to accomplish this and show the world that were capable of coming out and being aggressive and doing good at that.After Jackson was sacked for the 10th time he threw up his hands and two of his lineman looked to be yelling at each other about who was to blame for his latest takedown.It was so loud, you couldnt hear words, Oliver said. But you could see he was yelling at his o-lineman, but you couldnt hear what he was saying. Im guessing he was yelling at them for false starts.But the Cougars werent done getting after him just yet. On the next possession he threw the ball away while under heavy pressure from Tyus Bowser and was flagged for intentional grounding, giving the Cougars a safety.The Cardinals set a season-high with 15 penalties, punted a season-high six times by halftime and the 11 sacks they allowed were more than double their previous season-high. Its the fewest points theyve scored since a loss at North Carolina in 2011.Ward threw for 233 yards and two touchdowns to help the Cougars to the victory that left Cougar fans storming the field to celebrate.---For more college football: http://collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 ' ' '
