Three And Out

1 Michigan fans pining for alum Les Miles to succeed the retiring Lloyd Carr had best hope LSU loses one of its last two games. Though Miles is believed to covet the job, it's unlikely he would accept it while his Tigers are contending for the national title, which won't be decided until Jan. 7.

2 Here's hoping the nation's 925 Heisman voters don't accept the notion that underclassmen are unworthy of the award. Florida sophomore Tim Tebow is the first player to throw and rush for 20 touchdowns in the same season.

3 BYU (8--2) and Utah (8--3) head into their annual showdown this Saturday each having won seven straight games. The No. 23 Cougars have already clinched a share of the Mountain West title, but the Utes could snap their rival's 14-game conference winning streak.
