TOLEDO, Ohio -- Notre Dame coach Muffet McGraw figured Brianna Turner gave her a huge size edge the Irish could exploit against Toledo.She was right.Turner had 26 points and eight rebounds to lead No. 2 Notre Dame to an 85-68 victory over Toledo on Sunday.The 6-foot-3 junior forward shot 11 for 13 from the field as the Irish outscored Toledo 44-28 in the paint.We thought we had an advantage inside, McGraw said. We didnt think they could guard her, so we really wanted to go in as much as possible.It was great to see her have kind of a breakout game offensively.Marina Mabrey added 19 points on 8-for-11 shooting for the Irish (10-1).Jay-Ann Bravo-Harriott scored 23 points to lead the Rockets (8-2), and Kaayla McIntyre added 13 points.Toledo coach Tricia Cullop admitted that Turners length and athleticism gave her team all sorts of difficulty.Turner is one of the best centers in the country, and shes a handful, Cullop said.

Notre Dame scored the next eight points, taking the lead on Lindsay Allens layup with 6:31 remaining, and never trailed again.Theyre very skilled, very talented and definitely athletic, Bravo-Harriott said.

We guarded some pretty incredible players.BIG PICTURENotre Dame: The Irish used their speed and tenacity to beat the Rockets, winning the turnover battle 28-17. To stay even as close as we did with 28 turnovers was pretty incredible, Cullop said. Weve got to take better care of the basketball against great teams. That would have helped us tremendously.Toledo: Both of the Rockets losses this season have come against top-10 opposition, though the first setback was much closer -- 75-73 to then-No. 8 UCLA in the final of the Cancun Challenge on Nov. 25.INJURED IRISHNotre Dame freshman Jackie Young was out of the lineup for the second straight game due to an ankle injury suffered when the Irish lost to Connecticut.

NFL Nation reporters predict the outcomes and scores for Sunday and Mondays Week 1 games:PACKERS vs. JAGUARSGreen Bay PackersThe threat of Jordy Nelson going deep might be just as important as Nelson actually doing it. Without Nelson last season, opposing defenses didnt have to worry about the deep ball and loaded up the box. Aaron Rodgers had only five TD passes all season that went at least 20 yards downfield. In 2014, Nelson had seven such scores on his own. His return will open up things for Rodgers and the Packers to get off to a fast start. Packers 24, Jaguars 19?-- Rob DemovskyJacksonville JaguarsThe Jaguars committed to improving the defense in the offseason and they did, adding DT Malik Jackson, CB Prince Amukamara, FS Tashaun Gipson, CB Jalen Ramsey?and LB Myles Jack. But they missed on signing ann experienced edge rusher in free agency, which means they are relying on Dante Fowler Jr.dddddddddddd?(who missed his rookie season with a torn left ACL) and rookie Yannick Ngakoue. Fowler, the No. 3 overall pick last year, looked good early in camp but was ineffective in preseason games. The team challenged him to watch more film, work on his pass-rush moves, be better in meetings, and improve his conditioning. On Sunday, the Jaguars have to rattle Rodgers, who rarely turns the ball over (he ranks No. 1 in NFL history in career interception percentage at 1.6), but that is asking too much of the young edge rushers right now.
