Ireland captain Rory Best insists big one-off performances, that are not backed up, are no longer good enough for Joe Schmidts side on the eve of their rematch with New Zealand. Jerseys NFL Wholesale .Ireland ended their 111-year wait for a maiden victory over the All Blacks with the 40-29 win in Chicago on November 5, and are now primed for a furious backlash in Dublin on Saturday.Best knows full well the anger the back-to-back world champions will throw into their Dublin revenge mission - and has challenged his side to scale new heights in performance to pull off another victory.This week well need a performance thats up there with the best weve ever produced in an Ireland shirt, said Best, who will win his 99th Test cap this weekend.Its about us being consistent with our performance levels, thats the most important element. Big one-off performances and then a drop-off isnt acceptable any more with this group of players.?New Zealand have been able to summon fit-again lock duo Brodie Retallick and Sam Whitelock for the Dublin showdown. Retallick has recovered from concussion while Whitelock has finally beaten ankle trouble, to allow the All Blacks to restore one of the games most potent double acts.Best accepts that Ireland must raise their set-piece work even higher than in Chicago in order to counter the influence of New Zealands all-new second row pairing.They are going to be hurting a little bit and they will come after us there, in the set-piece, said Best. We looked back on Chicago and we were fairly hard on the defensive elements in our performance.(Defence coach) Andy Farrell expects us to go out and deliver. Hes focused on our systems and how we stop these tries. For us we looked back at some of the scores, some of the breaks, theres a lot of improvements we can make in our systems.Weve had three weeks together now so we should be better than we were in Chicago. Defensively we should be better and we need to be better.Wholesale Jerseys China . While hell be dialed in to that tournament on a course he loves, you can forgive him if his eyes glance down the calendar just a bit, towards April. Cheap NFL Jerseys . -- Eastern Kentucky thrives off creating havoc for others. http://www.wholesalejerseysforcheapchina.com/ .Y. - Rob Manfred was promoted Monday to Major League Baseballs chief operating officer, which may make him a candidate to succeed Bud Selig as commissioner. PITTSBURGH -- Another fourth-quarter lead gone and another what if loss looming, Pittsburgh responded with a little bit of savvy, luck and a dash of redemption for its beleaguered defense thrown in for good measure to surge past struggling Georgia Tech.First, Scott Orndoff kept his head while hauling in a tipped pass from Nate Peterman the tight end turned into a game-tying 74-yard touchdown with 3:50 to play. Then nose tackle Tyrique Jarrett stuffed Yellow Jackets running back Dedrick Mills on fourth down to give Pitt the ball back with 1:47 left to set up Chris Blewitts bank shot 31-yard field goal as time expired.Just another heart-stopping Saturday for the Panthers.I think its just about believing and never getting down on yourself or on your team, Orndoff said. Just hanging in there.Something Pitt (4-2, 1-1 ACC) is getting used to under coach Pat Narduzzi. The outcome has hung in the balance in the final 2 minutes each of the last five weeks, including a last-second loss to North Carolina two weeks ago in which the Tar Heels converted four fourth-downs on the deciding drive.Thats what made Jarrett and linebacker Matt Galambos stop so satisfying. The clock dwindling, Georgia Tech went for it on fourth-and-1 at its own 34 rather than kick it. Galombos -- who Narduzzi describes as the defenses computer -- sensed a dive play was coming and changed the call right before the snap, leading Jarrett to stand up Mills short of the first down.I happened to guess right, Jarrett said. It was perfect.Pitt drove to the Georgia Tech 12 to set up Blewitts winner, which smacked off the right upright and through as time expired. Its the second straight season Pitt topped the Yellow Jackets on a late kick by Blewitt, whose 52 career field goals are a school record.Called corner pocket, Blewitt joked.Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson defended the decision to go for it rather than kick it and give Pitts offense -- which punted just once all day -- another shot. Instead the Yellow Jackets (3-3) dropped their third straight overall and their sixth straight true road game dating back to 2014.If I to do over again at the end of the game, I probably still would have gone for it but I would have called a different play, Johnson said. I felt tthe way the game was going, I felt like we could make a half-yard and we didnt so thats on me. Wholesale Jerseys Cheap. Thats my responsibility and Ill take the blame for it.BIG MAN, BIG PLAYPeterman finished 14 of 20 for 192 yards and the long score to Orndoff. The Panthers spread the ball around while running for 215 yards, including a 24-yard run by 300-pound Pitt lineman Brian ONeill on a designed throwback lateral.Pitt offensive coordinator Matt Canada installed the play this week specifically for ONeill, a former tight end. He caught the ball and was surrounded by teammates while being escorted to the end zone.(Canada) told me dont do anything stupid when you score a touchdown because youre going to score a touchdown, ONeill said.THROWBACK FRENZYThe Panthers wore vintage blue-and-gold jerseys in a nod to the programs glory days of the 1970s and had Johnny Majors, the coach when Pitt won the 1976 national title, serve as honorary captain. As sharp as Pitt looked, however, Narduzzi made sure style didnt trump substance.(Narduzzi) told us those yellow helmets arent going to make a tackle for you, defensive end Shakir Soto said.TAKEAWAYGeorgia Tech: The Yellow Jackets were much improved following losses at home to Clemson and Miami but the defense struggled all day and yielded at the end. Johnson, however, remains upbeat even though his teams margin for error in the Coastal Division is gone.I think you can see every team in our division is probably really close, Johnson said. Just like North Carolina beat them on the last play, they beat us on the last play.Pitt: The Panthers are finding plenty of depth around star running back James Conner, who was held to 60 yards and failed to score a touchdown for the first time in 14 games. Eight different Panthers were credited with at least one carry.UP NEXTGeorgia Tech: take a break from ACC play when they host Georgia Southern. Yellow Jackets coach Paul Johnson led Georgia Southern to a pair of FCS titles in 1999-2000.Pitt: Travels to Virginia to take on the Cavaliers.
