LOS ANGELES -- Jim Mora had to release an injury report when he was a head coach in the NFL. He is under no such obligation at UCLA, and that wont change this week with the status of right tackle Kolton Miller uncertain.Miller injured his left leg in the first half of the Bruins 45-24 victory over Arizona last weekend, leaving the Rose Bowl on crutches. The redshirt sophomore was spotted on campus this week in a cast and using a mobility scooter, which could force redshirt freshman Andre James into the starting lineup at Arizona State on Saturday night.I really dont like talking about injuries unless they are very obvious, Mora said. I appreciate that everyone wants to know, but in terms of competitive advantage, it doesnt do us any good if we let our opponent know who is playing and whos not playing, so I hope people can respect that.Mora and quarterback Josh Rosen were pleased with James performance in his first significant action. James had been playing tight end in UCLAs jumbo package, and he was able to build on that experience when Miller went down.To go out on a Saturday in a competitive game -- because it was tight when he went in there -- and to play 33 snaps, it really helped him, Mora said. He is physical. Obviously he lacks a little experience, but just the fact he got those plays and some earlier in the season in the big package has really benefited him.After a sluggish start, UCLA erupted for 31 points in the second half against the Wildcats, but Rosen said there was no secret recipe for the offenses improvement. Instead, it was a byproduct of simple things such as the offensive line blocking better and wide receivers not dropping passes.We just played harder, Rosen said. We just did better.If James does start against the Sun Devils aggressive defense, Rosen said he wont have to make any changes. There might be some adjustments with the play-calling to ease the pressure on James, Rosen noted, but that has no impact on how he sees the game.There is one way to read a play against a single coverage, Rosen said. You cant stray from that, regardless of who is in front of you.Arizona State has reduced the frequency with which it blitzes this season in an effort to protect an inexperienced secondary, but that could change if Miller is unable to play. That is the very reason why Mora refuses to disclose or discuss injuries, and would not support the introduction of an injury report mandated by the conference or NCAA.Other schools in the Pac-12 are more open when it comes to injuries. Practices at crosstown rival Southern California are open to the media, and coach Clay Helton offers a brief summary of players status during his sessions with reporters. Arizona releases an injury report every week using designations similar to that of the NFL.The NFL does it for bettors, Mora said. Thats the only reason they release an injury report is for bettors, and I dont think I want to encourage people to bet on college football. If they do, they do, but our job is to try to win, not to provide information to the fans and the teams that may hurt us in our ability to win.Game notes Mora would not comment on the public reprimand he received from the Pac-12 on Tuesday for criticizing officiating in a post-game radio interview after the win over Arizona. Man, my focus is on Arizona State and thats it, Mora said.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org Tyler Saladino Jersey . -- Ryan Blaney provided more evidence that Penske Racings No. Lorenzo Cain Jersey . -- Peyton Manning will have all of his wide receivers available for the first time in a month when the Denver Broncos begin their playoff run Jan. https://www.cheapbrewers.com/ .

Drew Pomeranz Brewers Jersey . -- In one brief spurt, Brazil turned a close game into a rout and proved again it will be a strong World Cup favourite. The Warriors head into a bye after a solid five weeks that have turned around their NRL fortunes, but Simon Mannering says they cant afford to get comfortable.The 27-18 result over the Gold Coast Titans in Auckland on Saturday represented the Warriors fourth win in five matches.Their only defeat in that stretch was to competition leaders Cronulla via golden point defeat.Its a change from how they went into their first bye, which was preceded by three losses in four matches, the last a 38-12 thumping by Canberra in New Plymouth.Obviously getting four wins out of five was important for us, but we need to do that again after the bye, Mannering said.Were still not in a position to get comfortable at all. Well enjoy that little block, but there are a lot of things we can work on as a team.The defeat to the Raiders put a dampener on what was billed as hooker Issac Lukes returned to Taranaki.But beating the Titans meant the Warriors were able to mark Mannerings 250th NRL appearance in style.The 41-Test Kiwi came out at Mt Smart Stadium with his two children and was greeted by a standing ovation from the 15,000-strong crowd and an on-field haka.ddddddddddddI tried to keep it as low key as I could during the week, he said.To have the family out here and just all the messages of support from the guys I played alongside years ago - thats pretty humbling.Its definitely a night Ill treasure at the end of my career.Having given up the captaincy at the start of the year after six seasons in the job, he stood in against the Titans after regular skipper Ryan Hoffman was struck down by a virus.Mannering, 29, made his first-grade debut in 2005 and it was one of his ex-teammates, former wing Francis Meli, who presented him with match jumper against the Titans.I started my career sleeping on his couch, Mannering recalled.It was cool to have him there and to present me my jersey. Those are things you never forget. ' ' '
