J.P. Giglio, Raleigh News & Observer: Can everyone else stop romanticizing USC now? It's not 2004. Reggie Bush is gone. John David Booty is not Carson Palmer or Matt Leinart and the offense is simply not capable of exploding for points any more.
Bart Wright, Greenville News: Tommy Bowden has coached 104 games at Clemson, with a 64-40 record. In the 104 games that directly preceded his hiring, Clemson was 62-41-1 under two coaches, Ken Hatfield and Tommy West.

Dave Curtis, Orlando Sentinel: A slew of shocking results is once again fueling the debate for a playoff.
