Marquee matchup
Tee Martin vs. Justin Wilcox and Tim DeRuyter: Martin, USC's offensive coordinator, had maybe his best game against Stanford two weeks ago. Saturday, when USC was six of 21 on third and fourth downs against Texas, may have been among his worst, though Martin didn't see it that way. "No, Alabama was really hard," he said. Wilcox and DeRuyter's defense shut out high-octane Mississippi in the second half last week.
