On The Line

Although Jeremy Galten would start at left guard if USC played a game today, USC will not rule Abe Markowitz out despite the fact he wore a boot on his foot and did not practice. One reason is that Markowitz is also the backup center, so he would have to play on one foot if Khaled Holmes got hurt.

``Both guard positions, really,'' Kiffin said.
