Three And Out

1 For Nebraska to upset No. 1 USC this Saturday, quarterback Sam Keller needs to cut down on his mistakes. In a 20--17 win at Wake Forest , the Arizona State transfer had three turnovers and repeatedly overthrew open receivers.

2 Virginia Tech suffered a humbling 48--7 loss at No. 2 LSU but found a new QB. Fleet-footed freshman Tyrod Taylor played 2 1/2 quarters and produced 57 of the Hokies ' 65 yards on their lone scoring drive. He'll start on Saturday versus Ohio .

3 It will be difficult for No. 4 West Virginia , No. 9 Louisville or No. 13 Rutgers to make it through Big East play undefeated. In addition to each other, they must also face South Florida (a 26--23 winner at Auburn) and Cincinnati (34--3 over Oregon State ).
