Southern California overtook Georgia for the top spot in both major polls following Saturday’s action.

I believe this is reasonable and I hope it serves as motivation for the Bulldogs, who performed well on Saturday yet can and should improve as the season continues.

Unlike Quinton, I don’t view this as a problem. The winner of the Trojans’ tilt with Ohio State was bound to take over the top spot, anyway, and, with Georgia’s schedule, even a 12-1 run accompanied by an S.E.C. championship should be good enough to get the Red and Black into the second spot in the rankings and, hence, the big game.

Go ‘Dawgs!
