IN BRIEF

WASHINGTON — The Washington Redskins made their biggest move yet of the offseason Tuesday night, adding three-time Pro Bowl receiver DeSean Jackson less than a week days after the dynamic playmaker was released by the rival Philadelphia Eagles.

Jackson's publicist tweeted that Jackson was signing with the Redskins following two days of meeting with coaches and officials.

Jackson set career-highs with 82 catches for 1,332 yards last season for the NFC East champion Eagles.

UConn and Notre Dame have been on a collision course all season for what would be an unprecedented national championship game.Now the two unbeaten teams are each one victory away from a showdown in Music City. Standing in the way of that historic matchup are Maryland and Stanford.The Cardinal dispatched North Carolina 74-65 Tuesday and will face the top-seeded Huskies in the Final Four in Nashville, Tenn. The Irish will play the Terrapins, who upset Louisville 76-73 in Tuesday's early game. Both games Sunday are rematches from earlier in the season.
