USF, well, we won't really know anything about them until they play Pitt (as it'd be a huge shocker if they didn't beat UCF, then lose to L'ville and Miami).My hope, though not my expectation, is that the Orange can put together something resembling a passing game to go with Rhodes and that defense. I doubt WVU is going to steamroll through the Big East without losing, so SU might well still be in the running unless L'ville does the expected and steamrolls through the Big East without losing.This week, everyone except Cinci played teams that they expected to beat pretty easily (mostly I-AA teams), while Cinci played someone they expected to get beat by (Penn State); the only place where expections weren't met was Pitt losing to Ohio.</blockquote>
