TEMPE, Ariz. — Dan Conroy kicked a 47-yard field goal with 1:01 left, Le’Veon Bell ran for 145 yards and a fourth-quarter touchdown, and Michigan State rallied to beat Texas Christian 17-16 in the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl on Saturday night.
Michigan State (7-6) labored through the first half before going on the longest drive in the school’s bowl history, a 90-yard march capped by freshman Connor Cook’s 15-yard touchdown pass to Aaron Burbridge in the third quarter. The Spartans recovered a muffed punt by TCU’s Skye Dawson at the 4-yard line midway through the fourth quarter and Bell scored two plays later by racing around left end for a 14-13 lead.

Jackson more than made up for that miscue that ended the first half.

More BlackBerry N-Series images surface, appeases QWERTY lovers with sharper focus
Posted in: Today's Chili 
Remember this little guy? It was Christmas Eve when Mr. Blurrycam gave us a look at this keyboard-equipped BB10 prototype. Skip to the present, and N4BB has apparently come across news images of it, minus the fuzz. Aside from being clearer, the phone’s screen is notably powered on in this round images — essentially proving it’s more than a dummy. While we’ve known the unit is likely part of RIM’s N-Series, the site notes that its actual model number may officially be presented as the X10 (not to be confused with Sony Ericsson, Klipsch and Fujifilm offerings of the same moniker). Things will certainly become even clearer on January 30th, that’s for sure — for now, hit the source link for a couple of more images.

In the lead up to BlackBerry 10‘s January release, there have been plenty of leaks for us to get excited about. Anticipation has been running high, and we’ve seen more than a few quick shots of what’s rumored to be the BlackBerry Z10 handset. While the Z10 is an all touch BlackBerry 10 phone, its sibling the X10 is more like the BlackBerry devices we’re used to seeing, physical QWERTY keyboard and all. The X10 hasn’t popped up quite as often, but today it’s making headlines with a new set of leaked pictures.
In the images, which come from an anonymous N4BB reader, we get up close and personal with what’s reportedly the BlackBerry X10. These images do a pretty good job of showing off the size of the screen as it relates to the full keyboard, and we have to say that it looks pretty cool. In this era of smartphones with screens that stretch across nearly the entire face of the device, RIM is sticking with the physical keyboard (at least in this instance) – something that made BlackBerry so iconic back in the day.
Indeed, some BlackBerry fans probably wouldn’t like losing the physical keyboard in favor of a larger touchscreen, while others who don’t like typing on a touchscreen will find some value in it as well. RIM, of course, will be offering all touch BlackBerry 10 devices once the new operating system arrives next year, so if you’re the kind of consumer who has no interest in a physical keyboard, you’ll be covered as well.
There are a lot of people who are anxious to see what RIM will do with BlackBerry 10, and its January 30 launch event is coming up fast. At that event, we’ll see official BlackBerry 10 hardware for the first time, so this is definitely going to be big. Can BlackBerry 10 bring RIM back from the brink? We’ll be finding out soon enough.
