NEW YORK -- Geno Smiths second chance at starting appears to be over. His playing days with the New York Jets could be, too.An MRI on Monday revealed that the maligned quarterback has a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, and Smith seeking a second opinion on the injury that would end his season. That means Ryan Fitzpatrick is back from the bench and will start Sunday for the Jets at Cleveland.When you hear that, thats tough luck for the kid, coach Todd Bowles said during a conference call. Fitzpatrick finished the game up, and were going from there with Fitz.Smith, a second-round pick in 2013 who is scheduled to be a free agent after the season, injured his knee in his first start since 2014 while taking a sack from Baltimores Matt Judon in the second quarter of the Jets 24-16 win Sunday.Its a stunning turn of events for Smith, who didnt initially believe the injury was serious.I dont feel like it hurts a ton, Smith said after the game. Honestly, I was begging to go back out there, but I understand theyre doing their jobs, so well see how it goes (Monday) and move on from there.NFL Network first reported the severity of Smiths injury.Its the latest bout with bad luck for Smith, who lost his starting job to Fitzpatrick last summer when his jaw was broken by a punch from then-teammate IK Enemkpali.Until Sunday, Smith had appeared in just two mop-up roles since his last start in the 2014 season finale.He caught a bad break two years in a row, Bowles said. Im sure hell bounce back from it, but its a tough part of the business.With Fitzpatrick struggling with 11 interceptions in New Yorks first six games, in which the Jets started 1-5, Bowles went with Smith as his starter against the Ravens.Smith had a solid start to the game, going 4 of 8 for 95 yards, including a 69-yard touchdown to Quincy Enunwa. But he was hurt when he scrambled to his left and held onto the ball rather than throw it away on a third-down play, and took the sack.He limped off the field and was checked by trainers on the sideline before being taken to the locker room. Smith spent the second half in sweats on the sideline as Fitzpatrick helped lead the Jets to a win.I think its terrible, Enunwa said. For a guy to get his opportunity and only get a half to play, I feel bad for him.Smith drew some criticism from Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Namath, who wrote on Twitter : If youve got a right knee injury keeping you out of the game, why are you standing on the sideline the entire 2nd half? How bad can it be?Smith saw Namaths comments and responded on Twitter : Somebody tell Joe that the doctors have the final say on whether you can or cannot get back into the game ... and also that I love him!The Jets will now have to turn back to Fitzpatrick as their starting quarterback.Bryce Petty, a fourth-rounder last year, and rookie Christian Hackenberg, a second-rounder, are also on the roster. Petty has been practicing for only two weeks after recovering from a preseason shoulder injury.Bryce has to get his reads and his timing and everything else back down, Bowles said. Fitz is our best option to go in and win this week.Bowles had not determined whether Petty or Hackenberg would be the No. 2 quarterback behind Fitzpatrick, saying he would see how practice went this week.Fitzpatrick was candid after the game about how he felt owner Woody Johnson, general manager Mike Maccagnan and Bowles, among others, had lost faith in him.The biggest thing in this game, in order to last, is to have belief in yourself, Fitzpatrick said. Because when the owner stops believing in you, the GM stops believing in you and the coaches stop believing in you, sometimes all you have is yourself.So, thats kind of something Ive had to deal with before, something Im dealing with now.Fitzpatrick added that he has played better as an underdog, pissed off throughout his career, so thats what he anticipates doing, starting Sunday.Bowles brushed off Fitzpatricks comments, saying that they didnt take away from the victory and he got angry at coaches during his playing career, too. He also called the NFL a show-me game, meaning Fitzpatrick needs to look more like the guy who broke the franchise record with 31 touchdown passes last season than the interception machine from the first six starts this season.If pissed off is going to stop the turnovers, Bowles said, then Im more than happy to have him pissed off the whole time.Wide receiver Brandon Marshall also had no problem with Fitzpatrick venting his frustration.Say whatever you want to say to win games, Marshall said. Ill take it however it comes at this point.Game notesC Nick Mangold has a sprained ankle, and Bowles said the team will see how he feels as the week goes on. ...

The Sooners earned their first win of the season against a ranked opponent Saturday at West Virginia, but it clearly wasnt enough to sway the committee to bump OU ahead of the two-loss Big Ten teams.The Sooners and No. 12 USC have been two of the hottest teams in the country in recent weeks, with OU winning eight straight and the Trojans winning seven straight, but they remain on the outside looking in. Its certainly possible that could change in the next two weeks, but the committee has made it clear again, in this particular snapshot, that both teams still need some help.In the Group of 5, one-loss No. 19 Boise State and two-loss No. 20 Houston were both ahead of undefeated No. 21 Western Michigan, again underscoring the committees emphasis on strength of schedule over an undefeated record. No. 25 Navy was also ranked this week after clinching the American Athletic Conference West Division.Heres what the bracket would look like today:As for the other major bowls, heres a projection based on the current ranking:The Rose Bowl Game presented by Northwestern Mutual gets the Pac-12 champ, which in this case would be No. 5 Washington. Since the Big Ten champ (assuming its either Ohio State or Michigan in this case) and another Big Ten team are in a semifinal, the Rose Bowl would choose the next highest-raanked Big Ten team, which would be No.dddddddddddd 6 Wisconsin.The Allstate Sugar Bowl is guaranteed the Big 12 champ, which would be No. 8 Oklahoma, but because SEC champ Alabama is in the semifinal, it would take the next highest-ranked SEC team, No. 13 Auburn.The Capital One Orange Bowl is guaranteed the ACC champion, but because Clemson is in a semifinal, it would take the next highest-ranked team, which would be No. 11 Louisville. The Orange Bowl then chooses the next highest-ranked team from the SEC, Big Ten or Notre Dame. In this case, it would be No. 7 Penn State.The highest-ranked Group of 5 conference champion is guaranteed a spot in a New Years Six bowl, so No. 19 Boise State would go to the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic based on todays ranking. The reality of the situation, though, is that Boise State still needs Wyoming to lose at New Mexico on Saturday to win the Mountain Wests Mountain Division. If that doesnt happen, it opens the door for a team such as Western Michigan. The Cotton Bowl would then get the highest-ranked at-large team, which would be No. 9 Colorado.Heres what the New Years Six could look like, based on todays rankings:Dec. 308 p.m. ET: Capital One Orange Bowl: No. 7 Penn State vs. No. 11 LouisvilleDec. 313 p.m. or 7 p.m. ET: College Football Playoff semifinal at the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl: No. 1 Alabama vs. No. 4 Clemson3 p.m. or 7 p.m. ET: College Football Playoff semifinal at the PlayStation Fiesta Bowl: No. 2 Ohio State vs. No. 3 MichiganJan. 21 p.m. ET: Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic: No. 9 Colorado vs. No. 19 Boise State5 p.m. ET: Rose Bowl Game presented by Northwestern Mutual: No. 6 Wisconsin vs. No. 5 Washington8:30 p.m. ET: Allstate Sugar Bowl: No. 8 Oklahoma vs. No. 13 Auburn ' ' '
