WINNERS

Ed Orgeron

A profile on 60 Minutes complete with a USC reference that once again makes Pat Haden (and others) look bad.

Bubba Bolden

Ex-USC safety gave Trojan fans a glimpse of what he could do Saturday with Miami.

Luke Fickell

Cincinnati coach gets a big 55-19 victory over Austin Peay. He just needs a big, marquee program to loosen its purse strings during a time of retrenchment and hire him. 

LOSERS

The Pac-12

JT Daniels

Looks like he will start season No. 2 on depth chart at Georgia.

Larry Scott
