The new poll standings are out; here's where SC stands:
BCS: 12
AP: 9
USAToday: 8
Harris: 7
I don't want to pour salt on the wounds of the Notre Dame faithful, but it's not like we beat Oregon, LSU, or Boston College yesterday. Putting USC into the Top 10 for any poll on the strength of a decent showing against Notre Dame seems a bit premature.
