PrintWith an off week last weekend SC gets ready for Nebraska on Saturday. This game is in Lincoln and will be USC's first true test to see if all the hype is warranted.
Here is what is on tap for the coming days:
- Our BlogPoll ballot will be submitted covering last week's games, there will be some movement based on what I have seen already from some other ballots. Some are already moving SC down a notch or two, that's fine, the polls shouldn't matter at this time of the season anyway.
- We will have a roundtable of sorts with our friends at Corn Nation. They have some issues going into this weekend with a less than stellar performance from Sam Keller and the Nebraska defense. Wake gift-wrapped that win for Nebraska.
- We will take a look at the injury status of those who have been on the shelf and I will have a write-up on one of two knee injuries, I'm just playing with some HTML stuff to tie it all up.
- I am working on a piece looking at the comparisons, recently made on another USC site, in regards to USC going down the road that FSU has traveled of late. This is in the early stages and probably won't be posted up until later this week but the topic will generate some buzz I'm sure.
Enjoy your day!

Interesting LA Times story on Keller
Any way, I also enjoyed the flashback to the last game he played against USC...
"Two years ago, while starring at Arizona State, Keller disappeared into halftime at Sun Devil Stadium with a 21-3 lead over No. 1 USC.
Keller raised his arms to a jubilant student section on his way to the locker room. The upset victory was going to make Arizona State a national title contender and possibly make an All-American out of Keller.
A reporter for the Arizona Republic proclaimed 'game over' in the press box and a reporter from Los Angeles scribbled the premature proclamation on his notepad...
Keller played that second half against USC in 2005 and had four passes intercepted, the last hitting star receiver Derek Hagan in the hands before the ball trickled somewhat miraculously into the arms of USC's Kevin Ellison, who made the game-cinching pick while flat on his back.
USC rallied to win, 38-28, and it was Keller's turn to go belly-up."
P.S. Paragon/DC, feel free to clean up the link and box the quoted portion.
