ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Over and over, the officials announced that Detroits Corey Robinson was reporting as an eligible receiver -- a sign of just how banged up the Lions are in certain areas.Robinson is an offensive tackle and wears No. 70, but with their tight end corps thin because of injuries, the Lions used him there during their win over Philadelphia last weekend.Hes been asking for a few routes here and there, coach Jim Caldwell joked.With Robinson filling his unusual role and Golden Tate lining up in the backfield some, the Lions showed some creativity in their 24-23 win Sunday. Detroit is dealing with significant injuries at tight end, running back, linebacker and on the defensive line, but the victory over the Eagles helped the Lions regain their footing a bit after three straight losses.We were starting a new quarter of the season, Tate said. We like to break it up into four quarters, and it was the second quarter of the season. Obviously, the first quarter didnt go so well, so we just wanted to start off 1-0.Detroit (2-3) was without tight end Eric Ebron (ankle, knee), defensive end Ziggy Ansah (ankle) and linebacker DeAndre Levy (knee, quadriceps) on Sunday. Running back Ameer Abdullah (foot) has also been out.Considering all that, the Lions looked surprisingly crisp in the first half, when they scored on all three of their possessions and led 21-10 after two quarters.The 6-foot-7, 317-pound Robinson made his first career start and played 19 snaps. The Lions werent about to throw the ball to him, but Robinson is certainly capable of providing extra blocking as a tight end, and Caldwell was pleased with the way he moved around.We typically dont put those guys in motion if we can help it, but I thought he did pretty well, Caldwell said Monday. He did show an aptitude to handle a little bit of a skill position in that regard, so he did pretty well. Didnt have to worry about him jumping offsides or anything of that nature.Tate hasnt had a great season so far at wide receiver, and the Lions moved him around as well Sunday. In addition to his three catches for 39 yards, he also had three carries for 6 yards.The Lions were coming off a particularly unimpressive performance in a loss at Chicago , so beating the previously undefeated Eagles was an important step. Detroit lost seven of its first eight games last season, and there has been pressure to avoid repeating that kind of start this year.The Lions host Los Angeles next weekend, the second of three consecutive home games. Theyll face Washington the following weekend, so the hope in Detroit is that the victory over the Eagles can be the start of an extended stretch of better football.Every win is important. I think its more so what you do after that that counts, Caldwell said. The work weve got to put in and all those kinds of things will make a tremendous difference in that regard, so weve got to go back to work and straighten out the problems we had. But its better to build on that platform than a loss, obviously.Game notes The Lions announced that beer ($3.50) and hot dogs ($2.50) will be sold at 1991 prices for Sundays game.

SALT LAKE CITY -- The reinforcements have arrived for the University of Utah in the form of David Collette and Sedrick Barefield.Kyle Kuzma posted his sixth double-double of the season with 18 points and 15 rebounds as Utah cruised to a 92-60 victory over Prairie View A&M on Saturday, but all eyes were on the two newcomers.The Utes blew the game wide open early with a 16-2 run to take a 25-9 lead and never looked back. The Panthers were simply overmatched by Utahs size inside and athleticism on the perimeter.Zachary Hamilton led Prairie View (2-10) with 26 points.The most significant story of the game was the presence of power forward Collette and point guard Barefield. The two transferred to Utah last year, but just became eligible to play after the fall semester ended and Saturday was their first game. All of the required paperwork and final grades didnt become official until Friday.Collette started, but both are expected to be with the No. 1 unit as the season progresses.A little bit rusty, Utah coach Larry Krystkowiak said. No matter what you do, you cant get in that great of game condition until the popcorn starts popping.Two dynamic players. ... Dave, our own guys were bouncing off him at times. Hes a pretty solid rock inside. ... Sedrick gives you a little dynamic look. ... Captain Obvious, I would say they were pretty darn excited.The Utes (7-2) received an immediate boost in the paint from the 6-foot-10 Collette, who showed toughness and good touch offensively. The Utah State transfer dealt with foul trouble, but finished with 11 points and nine rebounds.Its been long enough, said Collette, who was named a captain. Ive been through this before. I was a little anxious, a little nervous. But once the game starts, it goes away. Its game-time.Im the oldest on the team. They call me grampss, theyre my grandkids.dddddddddddd ... Ive been through and know what its like. So Ive got a little bit to offer, I think.Barefield came in off the bench and provided a much-needed additional shooter despite air-balling his first shot. The SMU transfer knocked down three 3-pointers in the first half and ended with 18 points.It was definitely worth the wait, Barefield said. By the way Dave was practicing, (you could tell) he was ready. I was a little anxious. Kind of overthinking things, so I kind of wasnt being myself in practice.I kind of compare it to roller-coaster going up. But once the ball goes up, its just basketball.BIG PICTUREPrairie View: The Panthers lost their seventh straight, including the last six on the road.
