Simmering State of Origin tensions are set to be reignited after Kangaroos coach Mal Meninga revealed Paul Gallen and Corey Parker were in the mix for the end-of-year Four Nations.But Meninga did not believe interstate rivalries would be a problem for Australia.Queensland veteran Parker revealed tensions between the Origin teams were at an all-time low after last weeks game three controversy in Sydney.NSW skipper Gallen put Maroons noses out of joint by turning his back and leading his team away when Queensland captain Cameron Smith raised the Origin trophy at ANZ Stadium.The pair are now on a collision course after Meninga said he would consider both veterans for Australias Four Nations campaign in the UK starting in October.Parker will retire at seasons end.And Gallen will hang up his representative boots in 2016.As a result, Meninga had been expected to name a Four Nations squad with a nod toward next years World Cup.But the Kangaroos mentor said veterans Parker and Gallen were in the picture for the end-of-year tournament.Paul and Cozza are still available, Meninga said.If they are playing well at the end of the year, they are in the picture.You are never dead in the water selection-wise, in my eyes.Meninga said interstate rivalries would not be a factor in his Australian squad.Players will move on. I dont anticipate any problems whatsoever, he said.When you play in the green and gold you play to the best of your ability - its not about where you are from.Kangaroos skipper Cameron Smith backed Meningas call to pick veterans like Parker and Gallen on form for the Four Nations.Mal said he wont be picking for the future, he will be picking the best players for the job, he said.If Paul and Corey are available and the best men for the job then they will be there.Smith could have been forgiven for still being angry over Gallens Origin snub in Sydney last week.But he said it was time for Origin players to move on from the controversy.I have been playing for the Kangaroos since 2006 and I have never had any issues with a team uniting (after Origin), he said.All affiliations are left at the door to be honest.For me Origin finished nearly a week ago.There have been some things said post match but we need to move on now.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. -- Cincinnati got inside UConns 20-yard line three times in the second quarter on Saturday, but was forced to settle for a field goal on each drive as the Huskies defense stiffened.UConn responded with 20 unanswered points to snap a two-game losing streak with a 20-9 win over the Bearcats, who never made it into the end zone.Arkeel Newsome ran for 116 yards and Bryant Shirreffs threw for 224 yards and two touchdowns to lead UConn (3-3, 1-2 American).Hayden Moore, coming back from an ankle injury, threw for 315 yards, but was picked off twice for the Bearcats (3-3, 0-3), who were held to just two rushing yards.We have a great defensive line, said UConn safety Obi Melifonwu, who had one of those interceptions. We just ended up stopping them, stopping them in the run game.The Huskies switched the games momentum with a TD on their last drive before intermission and another on their first after halftime. Tyraiq Beals got the first, outjumping a defender and breaking a 59-yard catch and run, the longest of his career.That energized everybody, Beals said. Everybody stood up.

Thomas made nine catches for 108 yards.Newsome broke off a 67-yard run, the Huskies longest play from scrimmage this year, which set up a 30-yard field goal to give the Huskies a 17-9 lead.

Its only other win in the 13-game series came in 2008.When you go on the road and they give you an opportunity to score points early and you dont take advantange of it, it usually comes back to haunt you, Cincinnati coach Tommy Tuberville said.TAKEAWAYUConn: The Huskies revived their bowl hopes with their first conference win, but had to overcome another slow start. UConns Puyol missed a 52-yard field goal late in the first quarter, leaving the Huskies without a first-quarter point this season. UConn has just 45 points in first halves.Cincinnati: Cincinnati was hoping the return of Moore would help revive their offense, which had struggled with him on the sideline. But the Bearcats must find an answer to the running game. They came in averaging just under 150 yards a game on the ground. The Bearcats fall to 0-3 in conference for the first time since 1999 and have a lot of work to do to reach a bowl game for the sixth straight season.SUSPENSION: Newsome ran 14 times, all in the final three quarters. He was held out of the first quarter, because of what head coach Bob Diaco referred to as a late Friday.UP NEXTUConn: The Huskies head back on the road for a game next Saturday night against South Florida.Cincinnati: The Bearcats have an off week before returning home to face East Carolina on Oct. 22.
