The Tampa Tribune

Published: October 1, 2007

No. 1 LSU (5-0)

Saturday versus No. 9 Florida

Oct. 13 at No. 8 Kentucky

Oct. 20 versus Auburn

Nov. 3 at Alabama

Nov. 10 versus Louisiana Tech

Nov. 17 at Ole Miss

Nov. 23 versus Arkansas

Dec. 1 SEC title game

WATCH OUT FOR: How about the next four games? A killer stretch. But if the Tigers somehow survive unbeaten, the reward could be a rematch with Florida for the SEC title.

No. 2 USC (4-0)

Saturday versus Stanford

Oct. 13 versus Arizona

Oct. 20 at Notre Dame

Oct. 27 at No. 14 Oregon

Nov. 3 versus Oregon State

No. 10 at No. 3 California

No. 22 at No. 18 Arizona St.

Dec. 1 versus UCLA

WATCH OUT FOR: The Trojans shouldn't be seriously challenged at home, but things could get dicey on the Pac-10 road at No. 14 Oregon, No. 3 California and No. 18 Arizona State.

No. 3 California (5-0)

Oct. 13 versus Oregon State

Oct. 20 at UCLA

Oct. 27 at No. 18 Arizona St.

Nov. 3 versus Washington State,

Nov. 10 versus No. 2 USC

Nov. 17 at Washington

Dec. 1 at Stanford

WATCH OUT FOR: If the Golden Bears avoid an upset at Arizona State, they must get past USC. And then Stanford would love to ruin Cal's national title hopes in the 101st edition of the Big Game.

No. 4 Ohio State (5-0)

Saturday at No. 23 Purdue

Oct. 13 versus Kent State

Oct. 20 versus Michigan State

Oct. 27 at Penn State

Nov. 3 versus No. 5 Wisconsin

Nov. 10 versus Illinois

Nov. 17 at Michigan

WATCH OUT FOR: Pass-happy Purdue could knock off the Buckeyes this weekend. If not, a visit to Penn State (where OSU lost in 2005) and Michigan could derail OSU's unbeaten season.

No. 5 Wisconsin (5-0)

Saturday at Illinois

Oct. 13 at Penn State,

Oct. 20 versus Northern Illinois

Oct. 27 versus Indiana

Nov. 3 at No. 4 Ohio State

Nov. 10 versus Michigan

Nov. 17 at Minnesota

WATCH OUT FOR: The Badgers take the nation's longest winning streak (14) into back-to-back roadies at Illinois and Penn State. Then they get Ohio State and Michigan in consecutive weeks.
