Let's not overreact here. We've seen this story before. The Trojans will be clicking on all cylinders by year's end... and if they get sent to the Rose Bowl, will dismember a Big Ten team.

So the Beavers can beat the so-called "Best Team Ever at USC"...it's time for Pete to not let the players read the papers for a while. Well, maybe he should and let them read on how bad they played.

I am dropping USC to number 7. Some may agree but most probably won't but hear me out first. USC did just lose to Oregon St., yes this is true. However, I believe by the end of the year Oregon St. will end up much better than anyone expected and they will go to a decent bowl game and win. Oregon St. starts out slow every year and find themselves...I think they will have momentum now from this USC upset. Also, I do not drop them any lower than 7 because who am I going to put ahead of them? BYU? No offense BYU fans, I just think if you played a game vs USC you would have little to no chance. Texas Tech? Maybe a closer game vs USC but they have a pretty bad defense and USC would outscore them quite easily. Plus USC has a great secondary. Lastly, USC, even if you think their team is overrated, has the most talented team in America because of all their incredible athletes. As long as Carroll and company get back to work the rest of the season and play with some heart and determination i expect them in the top 5 possibly top 3 in the end. And although it maybe true USC struggles vs the little teams...they always show up in big games.

Falling seven spots may not be far enough, but with almost everyone else below them losing too, No. 8 seemed fair.

It was the vintage USC letdown game in the Pac=10. Shocked to see it come so early. Not a true indication of their talent, though they should work on stopping the run.

I'll consider the loss to Oregon State just a flash in the pan and only drop the Trojans seven spots. I still think this team is as good as anyone in the country.

I expect the Trojans will win out with a vengeance over the rest of the year.

Ho hum.

Lost to unranked team. Drop should be significant.

Marde Burke #9
Early loss to an un-ranked Pac 10 will only open the door for other conference foes.

Alex Farrer #9

Matt St. Jean #9
USC is still one of the most talented teams in the nation if not the most, but a let down against Oregon State again almost drops them out the top ten.
