Burford has a strained quad. Gutty performance trying to play through it last week. He won't see the field this week.

We will again rest OLB Travis Wilcox as his nerve injury has not sufficiently recovered.

We continue to climb the polls. #5 in the media poll, coaches have us at #4. The computer has us at #1. Anyone who has watched us play this year knows that all of these projections are very, very wrong. At 4-0 I'm beginning to think we will be in a bowl game (late schedule is tough, this is not a lock) but we shouldn't be sniffing the Top 5.

Texas is the new #1 after winning the Red River Shootout 36-26.
USC falls to #2 on a bye week.
Oregon State is still undefeated and ranked #7. They will have a showdown with undefeated, and 8th ranked, Washington St next week.

List of undefeated teams:
#1 Texas 6-0 SOS 28
#2 USC 4-0 SOS 18
#4 Boston College 5-0 SOS 51
#5 UCLA 4-0 SOS 15
#7 Oregon St 5-0 SOS 8
#8 Washington St 5-0 SOS 39
#9 Penn St 5-0 SOS 71 (JoePa scheduling non-conference cupcakes)
#14 Miami (OH) 6-0 SOS 114
