    I am guaranteeing a loss....that's why I am posting this poll.

    Also, to make things simple, assume that teams 2 thru 6 all win (all undefeated).

    USC plays in the national championship unless they get beat twice. It's that simple.

    But you can guarantee that if Arizona State beats USC, ASU will still be well behind USC in the rankings.... just as Tennessee is well behind Georgia now.

    While I hate USC as much as the rest of you, I dont understand why people think they will lose to ASU... ASU isnt nearly as good a team as Cal, and call couldnt pull it off.. yeah.. they out gained USC 2 to 1, but they didnt win. the cal QB had the game of a lifetime, and they still couldnt win. I just dont see USC dropping a game this year.. until they play OU that is. then they lose by 30.

    Tennessee is getting absolutely screwed at this point - 1 loss to the only undefeated team in the SEC and they sit at # 14 (4 spots behind freaking Utah)

    Two things. First, they didn't just lose, they got DRILLED at home. Second, Utah is undefeated and an argument can be made that they deserve their ranking. They handed Texas A&M their only lost of the season so far.

    I don't think Tennessee's in bad shape. If they continue to win, they will continue to rise. I don't think they deserve to be placed ahead of all the undefeated teams or anything.
