ST. LOUIS - Last year, Alec Ogletree ended James Laurinaitis four-year run as the St. Louis Rams leading tackler. Of course, hed like to lead again.I definitely take pride in it, Ogletree said after practice Wednesday. That was definitely one of my goals coming in, and right now Im leading. Well see how it unfolds.The linebackers are 1-2 again heading into the finale at Seattle. Ogletree had 10 tackles last week against the Giants and leads by one over Laurinaitis.As he did last year, Laurinaitis professes not to care about the tackle honorarium.Just want to win, man, he said. If I get two tackles on Sunday and we fly out of there with a win, that would be great.Tree can have it, I just want to win a game and finish the right way.Ogletree had the one tackle everyone at the Giants game cant forget. He drove Odell Beckham Jr. out of bounds and kept on driving, inciting a brawl that led to three player ejections.Were just out there playing football, things just happened, but its over, Ogletree said. You get riled up, but after that it calms itself down.Coach Jeff Fisher said earlier in the week he didnt expect any Rams to be fined, and the team hadnt heard from the NFL late Wednesday afternoon. That includes defensive end William Hayes, who threw a punch that didnt land in retaliation for having his helmet ripped off.Ogletree said he hasnt been notified by the NFL of a fine.I havent and I hope I dont, Ogletree said with a chuckle. Im not looking to hear from them.Two New York players said six Giants were fined a total of $72,400, including $16,000 to defensive tackle Cullen Jenkins for driving Rams quarterback Shaun Hill into the ground after an incomplete pass. Wide receiver Preston Parker and defensive end Damontre Moore were fined $15,000 apiece for their part in the brawl.Beckham was fined $10,000 for kicking at Ogletree after being thrown down and kicker Josh Brown was fined $8,200 for making a kicking motion at a Rams player.Jenkins and Brown discussed the fines Wednesday.Laurinaitis has started every game at middle linebacker since getting drafted in the second round in 2009. He became just the second rookie in franchise history to finish first in tackles. Ogletree, a first-round pick last year, is the third rookie to do it.Tree, especially the last four to six weeks, has been playing as good as any linebacker in the league, I think, Fisher said. And hes only going to continue to get better.This year, Laurinaitis durability has been tested by a preseason ankle injury thats never quite healed.Ogletree has 158 tackles, three more than he had last season, along with two interceptions and four forced fumbles. Laurinaitis calls the signals and has 157 tackles, 3 1-2 sacks for the second straight year, and two fumble recoveries.Both were in on all 71 defensive snaps last week, along with safeties Rodney McLeod and T.J. McDonald.Both of them have been very productive. Theyve been on the field, too, Fisher said.In the finale, both will be chasing down Russell Wilson. Laurinaitis said Wilson was the most dynamic dual threat quarterback in the league.He has such control over the game that even when plays break down its not somebody scrambling or panicking, Laurinaitis said. Its so rehearsed and so well done, its almost like he makes the perfect decisions at the right moments.NOTES: The Rams practiced in drizzling rain with temperatures in the mid-30s. Fisher said the forecast calls for similar weather in Seattle so it was good to get outside. ... The team adjusted its practice schedule this week, working out Tuesday and giving players Christmas off. Fisher discussed the situation with team captains and obviously theyre not going to say no.___AP Sports Writer Tom Canavan contributed to this story.___Online:AP NFL websites: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Mike Bossy Jersey .

MADISON, Wis. -- Ben Brust scored 18 points, Sam Dekker added 17 and No. 4 Wisconsin used a 20-0 run in the first half to easily beat No. 23 Illinois 95-70 on Wednesday night. The Badgers improved to 16-0 (3-0 Big Ten), the best start in school history. Wisconsin shot 53 per cent from the field in the first half to open up a 25-point lead by halftime. The Illini (13-3, 2-1) stumbled badly in their debut this year as a Top 25 team and lost a sixth straight to their border rival. Rayvonte Rice led Illinois with 19 points on 7-of-21 shooting. The Illini missed 13 straight shots, some on easy looks, while Wisconsin methodically wore them down inside and on the perimeter during the big first-half run. Joseph Bertrand added 18 points and nine rebounds for Illinois, while Tracy Abrams had eight points. Nnanna Egwu grabbed 10 rebounds, including nine on the offensive end. The balanced Badgers had five players with at least 11 points, with Frank Kaminsky adding 15 and freshman Nigel Hayes 11 off the bench. Traevon Jackson had 15 points and went 7 of 7 from the foul line. The end of Wisconsins first-half run typified Illinois frustrating evening. Kaminsky, Wisconsins 7-foot outside shooter, hit a 3 to make it 29-10 with about 10 minutes left before proving his worth at the other end. The only defender back initially against two Illini, Kaminsky got in Abrams way to force a missed jumper. Illinois grabbed the rebound, but Egwu missed a short layup. Two more offensive rebounds, two more misses before the ball went out of bounds to Wisconsin. By contrast, the Badgers played with typical efficiency at the other end, aa hallmark for coach Bo Ryans teams.dddddddddddd The ball wound around the perimeter before going into Dekker. The lithe 6-foot-7 forward backed down his defender with about 5 seconds left on the shot clock before turning and hitting an easy layup. Bertrands short jumper finally ended the run, but Illinois was well out of it already by then, down 33-12 with 7:56 left in the first half. The Badgers gave them a few easy looks on the defensive end but Illinois failed to convert. Illinois outrebounded Wisconsin 48-35, including 25-5 on the offensive end, but still lost badly. Coach John Groces team played a little better to open the second half and still could get no closer than 17. Just another solid win for Wisconsin. The Badgers arent necessarily flashy, but theyve got much more firepower offensively than in years past. Dekker can beat opponents off the dribble, as he did on a pretty diagonal drive through the lane that ended with a hesitation move and three-point play during the start of the 20-0 run. Kaminsky can hit the 3 or smoothly manoeuvr in the post. The pesky Brust can make opponents pay from the perimeter, finishing 4 of 8 from 3-point territory. And whats more, Wisconsin takes care of the ball. The NCAA leader with just 8.47 turnovers per game had just four on Wednesday, including two for Jackson after the point guard had a career-high seven his previous outing against Iowa. Illinois gets three days to regroup before heading back on the road for the short trip Sunday to Northwestern. It has been 25 years since Illinois beat a Top 5 team on the road, a 70-67 win at No. 3 Indiana. ' ' '
