"Our guys, they understand. They have a good feel for when they are and when they're not playing the way we need to play," coach Sean McDermott said. "And I saw Josh [Allen] as I was kind of bringing everybody up [at halftime], and he looked at me. I just knew he was seeing it like I was. The entire team was on the same vibe."

"Again, not the start we wanted. I give the guys a lot of credit. I'm not going to think too much into it. I thought the effort was there; it's just the execution wasn't. Just a great gutsy win by our guys. Wins like this can continue to propel our team to climb the standings and [help the players] understand what we need to do to become a successful team." - John Gruden

Leo Cullen has delivered some important half-time team talks during his ten years as Leinster head coach, and back at his old stomping ground, his players dug deep to overturn a 15-6 half-time deficit.

"To answer this is not easy. For one side, I'm really happy how we come back. It shows a lot of our attitude and our mentality,"

Over the course of USC' s undefeated start, with its star freshman still out, its leading scorer nursing an ailing shoulder and one of its best defenders down because of an injured hip, coach Eric Musselman still managed to make the best of his ravaged roster. USC had won eight straight, sweeping its nonconference slate and winning its Big Ten opener at Oregon. It swept through the Maui Invitational, beating three real teams in the process.

When he was coming out of Arkansas in 2022, the most common comparison associated with Treylon Burks was Deebo Samuel Sr. Like the San Francisco 49ers' receiver, he had a body that could overpower smaller defensive backs. He offered the versatility to line up in the backfield as an occasional running back. However, there was a different comp that intrigued the fans of the team that ultimately drafted him, and it turned out to be one that did him no favors.

I think we were the much better team through the whole game. We didn't create that many chances but in the end, we have the right momentum in the game. We reacted well in the second half and we always have to believe that we can score goals and turn a game around and that's what we showed.

The Thunder trailed by as many as 18 points in the first half; their 32-point win was the largest by any team that trailed by 15 or more point in the play-by-play era (since 1997-98). It was also Oklahoma City's second-largest comeback win this season, after they trailed the Memphis Grizzlies by 19 points on Nov. 9. The Thunder improved to 5-0 when trailing by double digits, the only team without a loss in such games.

Even though the Cleveland Cavaliers were missing three All-Stars (to the Miami Heat's two), they powered through the Heat late and secured a 130-116 win on Wednesday. Miami played its worst stretch of basketball over the final 16 minutes, scoring just 24 points while shooting just 31.0 percent from the floor. As a result, Cleveland fought back from a 14-point third-quarter deficit and pounced on the reeling Heat.

December 18, 2015: The Toronto Marlies find themselves trailing 3-0 after 42 minutes on the road against a rolling Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins team. A wild, highly improbable comeback unfolds as Toronto scores three shorthanded goals in 2:34 before winning the game in a shootout. Roll forward almost 10 years, and the Marlies mounted a comeback as miraculous and impressive. Funny enough, it came during the same week the big club erased a 3-0 third-period deficit against the Penguins' parent franchise.

"I have no clue. I don't have an answer for that right now," Berube said. "Like I said, the second period, they got the puck and did whatever they wanted with it. We didn't check anybody, we didn't knock anybody off the puck, and when we did get it, we gave it back to them, and they just kept coming back down our throats. I mean, it's just not good enough."

In the last of our 'Vintage Veteran' series, veteran ex-Mayo netminder David Clarke reveals what keeps him going It's been a week since Ballina Stephenites produced the mother and father of all comebacks to capture a Mayo SFC three-in-a-row, and David Clarke's voice is still showing some of the effects of it. This one is really being savoured, and it came about in the most unlikely of circumstances, so the former Mayo goalkeeper enjoyed every second.
