SYDNEY -- That burns a little bit.With that, Adam Scott summed up his 2013 Australian Open implosion at Royal Sydney and showed just how badly he wants to win at the same course this week.The world No.7 is the highest ranked Aussie vying for the Stonehaven Cup, a tournament another local Geoff Ogilvy described as a major for all Australian players.Yet it is even more personal for Scott after he walked up the 18th green at Royal Sydney with a one-shot lead in 2013, only to bogey and open the door for Rory McIlroy.I certainly feel like Id like to get a win here at Royal Sydney after what happened a few years ago - that burns a little bit, Scott said on Wednesday.Also to win the Aussie Open is special, but it would kind of cap off what was a good year but it would make it feel just that bit better because I got another win.Looking back on the 8-iron error that helped open the door for McIlroy, Scott lamented a lack of judgement that saw him miss out on a win that would have completed the Australian Triple Crown.Yeah I just, from memory, obviously the 18th hole stands out and I made an error on the last hole, one I couldnt afford to, Scott said.Its just the way the game goes. If Id just hit a pretty average shot to the front of the green and two-putted, Rory probably doesnt make his putt and I win the tournament. But I just slightly pushed the 8-iron and misjudged the wind, it goes over the green into a tough spot and make a five.And then the doors open for Rory and being such a great player, you know youve got to take those breaks when theyre given to you and he knocks it in. It was a shame because Id had such a great run down here, but maybe a good motivator for me this week to try and get out and do it all again.While McIlroy proved his tormentor in 2013, Scotts main challenge at Royal Sydney this time around will come from world No.5, American Jordan Spieth.The 23-year-old two-time major winner has travelled to Australia the last two years, a win in 2014 and runner-up finish in 2015, but he is getting his first look at Royal Sydney this week.Still, Scott wasnt sure whether his extra course knowledge would be a factor this week.Over Jordan? Maybe, Scott said when asked if he had the edge due to his local knowledge.I mean hes such a good player he can figure a course out pretty quickly.I think even though hes young hes already got so much experience, playing everywhere around the world which is I think to his advantage that hes coming out here and playing this event. And in some small way Im sure its going to help him, whether its with an Open Championship or something like that in the future.But the young guys playing around the world I think get so much experience and hes got a very mature head on his shoulders so hell figure it out.But just having played here a fair bit over the years I feel very comfortable and I might have a little bit of an advantage in that sense.While Scott will be the sentimental favourite with the local fans, there is no shortage of other Australian players capable of taking out the Stonehaven Cup. And it will likely be well received, too, given the flailing fortunes of Australias other leading sports teams.Well theres heaps of us playing so the odds are pretty good, Scott said with a smile when asked if he could deliver and Australian victory.Well Jason had a good year again, hes No.1 in the world - hes holding Australian sport high at the moment.

No. 6 Ohio State | No. 8 Michigan | Top 25No. 7: StanfordLast Season: 12-2 (8-1 Pac-12 North)The Cardinal barely missed the playoff last year -- and are even stronger now. The reason? Christian McCaffrey. The Stanford back broke Barry Sanders record for all-purpose yards in a season (3,864), and while QB Keller Chryst (nine career passes) and top WR Michael Rector (39.9 ypg) are not rated as highly, McCaffrey should be enough to keep the offense at pace. The Cardinal D was inexperienced in 2015 -- just three returners -- but all three units on defense this year rank in my top 20. The schedule is tough, though: underdogs at Washington (+3) and Notre Dame (+3), along with toss-ups at UCLA and Oregon.IN IF... It makes it through October unscathed. In the first six games, Stanford faces four teams in FPIs top 20 (USC, UCLA, Washington and Notre Dame).OUT IF... McCaffrey somehow isnt a Heisman finalist. With a new QB, left tackle, left guard and center, Stanford will again need huge production from McCaffrey.Stanfords chances to win each game 09.02 vs. Kansas State: 85.2% 09.17 vs. USC: 47.5% 09.24 @ UCLA: 32.4% 09.30 @ Washington: 31.4% 10.08 vs. Washington State: 74.0% 10.15 @ Notre Dame: 33.2% 10.22 vs. Colorado: 83.7% 10.29 @ Arizona: 47.7% 11.05 vs. Oregon State: 90.0% 11.12 @ Oregon: 46.2% 11.19 @ Cal: 64.0% 11.26 vs. Rice: 97.4%Armed with the best player in college football, Christian McCaffrey, and led by a masterful coach, David Shaw, its a not a question of if Stanford will eventually win a national title, its a queestion of when and an 11-1 regular-season record should make it possible this year.dddddddddddd. -- Kyle BonaguraThe Cardinal enter the year with the nations longest streak of games with 30-plus points (13). Despite a quarterback TBD and questions on both sides of the ball, Stanford has earned the benefit of the doubt as the leagues top ranked team and a 10-2 record seems realistic. Having McCaffrey doesnt hurt, either.?-- Kevin GemmellChristian McCaffrey -- there doesnt need to be much of an explanation past him. A 9-3 season might not look too incredible until fully understanding how tough of a schedule McCaffrey and his team will face in 2016. -- Chantel JenningsIts important to remember that the Cardinal have lost their quarterback, their leading tackler and over half of both lines. Star power that begins with McCaffrey will help assuage some of the talent drain, but it wont be easy sledding against one of the toughest road-heavy schedules in the country, so a 9-3 finish seems solid here.?-- David LombardiThe Cardinal were picked to win the Pac-12 because theyve won the conference three out of the past four years and were never picked to win it, so sportswriters decided to hedge their bets, no matter that Stanford has big questions. Still, with Shaw and McCaffrey, the Cardinal should be able to take the conference with a 10-2 record.?-- Ted MillerNo. 6 Ohio State | No. 8 Michigan | Top 25 ' ' '
