USC is ranked 24th by the AP, its lowest ranking going into a game since the 2001 Las Vegas Bowl, when it was unranked.

I wonder where SC will end up if it wins out and beats somebody good at the Holiday Bowl? Would they make it in the top 10? Doubt it. Probably top 15.

I don't think a Top 10 finish in the AP Poll is out of the question if USC can win its' last three games, including (hopefully) the Holiday Bowl.

The following list of 10-3 teams made it in the final AP Top 10:
2008 (Ohio St-9th, Oregon-10th)
2007 (Texas-10th)
2006 (None)
2005 (N.D.-9th, Georgia-10th) ND was 9-3 in 2005
2004 (VaTech-10th)
2003 (Michigan-6th, Iowa-8th, Wash St.-9th)
2002 (Michigan-9th, Wash St.-10th)
