No. 5 Ohio State will likely march into the Los Angeles Coliseum on Saturday with star tailback Beanie Wells on the sidelines in street clothes. Unless head coach Jim Tressel is playing possum and undertaking the ultimate act of gamesmanship, OSU will need to pull out all stops to even remain competitive with USC wihout its best offensive weapon. Would Tressel dare play Terrelle Pryor for long stretches of play? Will we see a repeat of OSU's back-to-back national championship game appearances the last two seasons? Will the Buckeyes' defense be able to take advantage of a potentially succeptable Trojans offensive line?
No. 10 Wisconsin has a real dangerous game Saturday night in Sillicon Valley against No. 21 Fresno State. Coach Pat Hill has been preparing his Bulldogs all season for this matchup, so expect the game to come down to the final minutes of the fourth quarter.
How about the great Greg Schiano? Winless in two games on the young season with both losses coming at home? Mike Teel has struggled mightily thus far this season for Rutgers, throwing three interceptions last night after a subpar opener against Fresno State. The 44-12 loss was the Scarlet Knights' worst loss since a 56-5 loss to Louisville on Nov. 11, 2005. The Big East once again is looking like the Big Least. Meanwhile, Butch Davis looks to be getting the North Carolina program rapidly back on track.
Upset of the week: South Carolina 12, Georgia 10
