HOUSTON -- Duke Catalon scored three touchdowns and Houstons defense hurried and harassed Heisman favorite Lamar Jackson all night to propel the Cougars to a stunning 36-10 victory Thursday night that dashed No. 3 Louisvilles playoff hopes.Louisville (9-2) entered the game ranked fifth in the College Football Playoff rankings, but was outdone by a Houston team that saw own playoff hopes foiled by two losses to unranked teams.Things went wrong quickly for the mistake-prone Cardinals when they fumbled the opening kickoff to Houston (9-2). 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.Houston then scored touchdowns on three straight possessions in the second quarter to push the lead to 31-0 at halftime. 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. 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.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 Nicolas Hague Jersey . -- Three close looks at the bucket, three misses.

MADRID -- Barcelona players are unusually downbeat ahead of one of their most important games of the season.The Catalan club will enter the first clasico of the season against Real Madrid filled with doubts after a couple of disappointing performances in the Spanish league.Barcelona was outplayed throughout the 1-1 draw at Real Sociedad on Sunday for its second consecutive setback in the league. It had also been held to a 0-0 home draw against Malaga in the previous round.The results left the two-time champions six points behind Madrid ahead of Saturdays much-anticipated game at Camp Nou.It was a day when very few things worked, Barcelona defender Gerard Pique said after the draw against Sociedad. The team didnt play in the first half. We improved in the second, but it will be very difficult to win La Liga playing like this.Sundays performance left Enrique welcoming the draw, while admitting that Barcelona was dominated by its opponent, something that doesnt happen very often to the European powerhouse.We played our worst match of the season. The opponents were far superior, he said. Football is so special that we almost won with a chance ... but it wouldnt have been fair.Barcelona escaped an even worse result because a second-half goal by Sociedad was incorrectly disallowed for offside. The hosts also were denied by the woodwork twice near the end of the game.When an opponent plays better we have to admit it, Barcelona defender Jordi Alba said.Enrique said things must change for the clasico, when a loss would leaave Barcelona nine points behind Madrid and in a difficult position to try to win the title for a third straight time.dddddddddddd Even a draw would not be a good result considering the rivals advantage.We are still in the 13th round, you cant discount the two-time defending champions. There is still a long way to go, Enrique said. We will play against the leader and the direct matchups could be decisive. We will be at home and things will be different.Barcelona lost to Madrid the last time the teams played at Camp Nou, a result that brought Madrid back into the title hunt with only a few rounds left last season. The loss also put an end to Barcelonas 39-game unbeaten streak.Now its Madrid coming in with the league lead and an unbeaten run. Zinedine Zidanes team hasnt lost in 31 matches, dating back to a 2-0 setback at Wolfsburg in the Champions league last season.The game against Madrid is one everybody wants to win, Alba said. If we win it, we are right back in the fight for La Liga.Before the clasico, Barcelona makes its Copa del Rey debut by playing at Hercules in the first leg of the competitions round of 32 on Wednesday. Luis Enrique is expected to rest nearly all of his top players.Madrid plays the second leg against Cultural Leonesa on the same day and is also expected to play with second-stringers. It won the first game 7-1.---Tales Azzoni on Twitter: http://twitter.com/tazzoni ' ' '
