Auburn, USF move into AP Top 25

NEW YORK -- Rejuvenated Auburn jumped into the AP Top 25 for the first time this season, landing at No. 17 after improving to 5-0 under new coach Gene Chizik.

One week after a bunch of upsets gave The Associated Press poll a serious shake-up, a relatively predictable weekend provided some stability -- though several teams outside the top 10 lost, dropped out of the rankings and made room for newcomers like Auburn.

No. 23 South Florida (5-0), No. 24 Missouri (4-0) and No. 25 South Carolina (4-1) also moved into The Associated Press poll Sunday.

The Bulls and the Gamecocks are in for the first time this season. The Tigers were ranked for a week last month.

Ducks' Blount could be reinstated for final four games

EUGENE, Ore. -- Running back LeGarrette Blount could be reinstated to Oregon's football team this season if he meets certain conditions, coach Chip Kelly said.

"It's not a football decision, it's a human being decision. It's about that individual," Kelly said Friday. "And he's got a lot of things he's got to do."

Blount was suspended for punching Boise State's Byron Hout in the aftermath of Oregon's 19-8 season-opening loss to the Broncos. The suspension banned him from games, but Blount was allowed to remain on scholarship and practice with the team.
