BCS Preview -- USC No. 7
The official BCS rankings will not be released for two weeks, but with the Harris and Coaches' Polls available, and five of the six computer rankings out, BCS Guru Jerry Palm has USC seventh in his BCS rankings. Of the six teams ranked above USC, Oklahoma and Texas play each other this weekend, Missouri hosts No. 17-ranked Oklahoma St., LSU travels to No. 11 Florida, Penn State is at Wisconsin and Alabama is idle.
USC needs to keep winning and let the frontrunners start to fall. Anyone who saw Ohio State climb back into the Top 2 in '07 knows its possible.
One loss will probably do it this year.
