Top 10 after 13 weeks:
1. LSU (11-0)
2. Pittsburgh (10-1)
3. Syracuse (11-0) - SOS of 110 helps explain this, I think although they beat #2 Pitt on the road
4. Miami (FL) (10-1)
5. USC (9-1)
6. Oklahoma (9-1)
7. Texas (9-1)
8. Oregon (9-1)
9. West Virginia (9-2)
10. UCLA (8-2)
11. Arizona (8-2)
So we are securely into the playoffs and almost assured of our Top 25 performance for the year. A win against USC would be great for expectations and allow us into the playoffs. No pressure ...
Injuries:
OG Luis Jones is in bad shape with torn cartilage issues in his left ankle. We aren't going to be able to play him. We are going to be lining up tackles at the guard spots today.
DT Jared Burford - I had allowed myself to hope he might be back for this game but no chance. Torn ACL is not something that you play through.
