LONG POND, Pa. Nike Air Max Cheap Wholesale . -- Juan Pablo Montoya finds himself in a different place as the IndyCar Series returns to Pocono Raceway. With four races left in the season, hes not the man to beat.Heading into Sundays race at Pocono, the one-year anniversary of the tragic death of Justin Wilson after a freak accident at the 2.5-mile track, Montoya sits 12th in the standings, the last of Roger Penskes four cars. The other three -- Simon Pagenaud, Will Power, and Helio Castroneves -- are 1-2-3, with Pagenaud and Power separated by just 58 points and Josef Newgarden 120 points behind Pagenaud in fourth.The gap to a different competitor from a different team is bigger (than last year). It might just come down to Simon and Will, Montoya said. I think well be much better prepared going into the last race to make sure we all work together, and so we can win the championship as a team. Well see what happens.A year ago, Montoya led in points much of the season before losing the series title in the season finale to Scott Dixon, unable to make one last pass for position on the final lap to secure the championship. Dixon dominated a race worth double points to tie Montoya and was declared the champion because he had one more victory than the hard-driving Colombian.It sucks, but it is what it is. Move on, you know, Montoya said.Montoya seemed poised to make amends for his heartbreaking title loss when the new season began. He started on the second row and won the season opener at St. Petersburg. He was still third in the standings after two top-fives in the ensuing four races, then watched his season begin to unravel at the Indianapolis 500. Montoya lost control of his car on lap 64, crashed into the wall and finished last in a race he had won the previous year for the second time.He rebounded with a third-place finish at Belle Isle but has since had 20th-place finishes in the second race at Belle Isle, Iowa and Toronto, along with an 11th at Mid-Ohio to fall out of contention. He had contact at Belle Isle, mechanical problems at Iowa with his Chevrolet and strategy bit him at Toronto and Mid-Ohio.Its been tough because weve had cars fast enough to be there, he said. Race pace is really, really good. Im not really struggling. Weve been making the wrong calls. At Iowa I was the fastest team car. When you go every week and youre competitive and things just go wrong, theres nothing you can do.Montoya returned to IndyCar two years ago after a 14-year stint in NASCAR, won at Pocono, and finished fourth in the championship. His contract with Penske is up after the season, and he said he is looking at three options, trying to decide the best fit for him personally.Theyre going to wait until after the season to make a decision. Well see what happens, Montoya said of Penske. I think Ive done a really good job. I won the Indy 500 for them last year. They hadnt won it since `09. I nearly won the championship, but as a team we didnt execute well enough.Personally, I think we have the potential to keep going doing nice things. This year, everything that could go wrong has gone wrong.Barring a miracle, history isnt likely to follow recent form in the open-wheel series. Including Pagenaud this season, a driver from Team Penske has led the championship with four races to go four times in the past six years -- Power (2010), Castroneves (2013 and 2014), and Montoya -- and none won the title that season.---Online: AP Auto Racing Website: www.racing.ap.org---Follow Kekis on Twitter: www.twitter.com/Greek1947 Cheap Nike Air Max Clearance .J. -- Marshawn Lynch said Thursday it will be good to get back to football after the Seattle quiet talking running back wrapped up his final mandatory media session of Super Bowl week. Clearance Air Max Outlet . But what about the officials? Every sport has officials and they also have stories about hard work and sacrifice but their accomplishments are seldom recognized by anyone outside their inner circle. http://www.airmaxoutletcheap.com/ . -- Matt Rupert scored once in regulation and again in the shootout as the London Knights extended their win streak to nine games by defeating the Owen Sound Attack 4-3 on Friday in Ontario Hockey League action. AUBURN, Ala. -- The Auburn Tigers face another Sun Belt Conference team hoping for similar results.The Tigers (2-2) have struggled offensively against everyone but their lone Sun Belt opponent so far this season entering Saturdays game against Louisiana-Monroe (1-2).Theyre fresh from a down-to-the-last-play win over LSU, which fired coach Les Miles a day later, and have lost competitive games to No. 9 Texas A&M and No. 5 Clemson. Then there was the Arkansas State game, a 51-14 win when the running game was unstoppable and quarterback Sean White threw his only three touchdown passes of the season.Auburns hoping to build on that 18-13 LSU win built on defense and six Daniel Carlson field goals. Coach Gus Malzahn handed over the play calling duties to offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee in that game that ended when LSU couldnt get a final play off in time.It gives us all confidence moving forward, safety Johnathan Ford said.ULM might also have built some confidence from a 23-21 loss to Georgia Southern and had an open date to prepare for this game. Auburn has won all nine meetings by an average score of 44-9.Here are some things to watch for in the ULM-Auburn game:RED ZONE: Malzahns top offensive priority for the Tigers was fixing the performance in the red zone after promising drives kept stalling shy of the goal line. The team is 92nd nationally in red zone offense.Thats the number one thing we have to solve, Malzahn said. Were going to focus on that like crazy. Lets put it this way, you will see somee different things in the red zone moving forward. Air Max Outlet Wholesale. CALLING PLAYS: This is the second game since Lashlee has taken over calling the offensive plays. The results were mixed against LSU, mainly because of the red zone struggles, but Malzahn thinks the time was right for the change.When you do something for 25 years its hard to change, but the time is right, he said. Im looking forward to transitioning that way.PETTWAYS STATUS: Auburns No. 2 rusher, Kamryn Pettway, has been nursing a bruised quad since facing LSU. If hes unable to play or has his carries limited, that could open the door for freshmen Malik Miller and/or Kam Martin to get their first significant action behind Kerryon Johnson.ULMs TOUGH ROAD: The Warhawks are playing their third straight road game since opening with a win over Southern. Theyve lost at Oklahoma 59-17 and fallen just short against Georgia Southern. So the players have some experience dealing with tough environments.I think they understand what were getting into, coach Matt Viator said.FACING AUBURNS DEFENSE: ULM quarterback Garrett Smith has thrown for 200-plus yards in each of the first three games and is also the teams leading rusher. Now, he faces a much-improved defense led by linemen Carl Lawson and Montravius Adams.Their defensive line is phenomenal and very athletic, Viator said.---AP College Football: www.collegefootball.ap.org cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
