Two games into the Lincoln Riley era at USC, the college football poll voters are clearly impressed with what they've seen.

Earlier Sunday the Trojans jumped four spots to No. 8 in the USA Today Coaches Poll. And they just climbed three spots to No. 7 in the just-released AP Top 25 college football poll.

USC trails only Georgia, Alabama, Ohio State, Michigan, Clemson and Oklahoma in the latest AP poll. Utah (No. 14) and Oregon (No. 25) are the other two ranked teams from the Pac-12.
