COLLEGE FOOTBALL REPORT / WEEKDAY UPDATE : AROUND THE NATION : Notre Dame Replaces Miami as No. 1

Brigham Young’s upset of top-ranked Miami shook up the Associated Press college football poll Monday. Notre Dame became No. 1, BYU No. 5 and Miami No. 10.

Notre Dame, which opens its season Saturday against Michigan, received 37 first-place votes and 1,451 points from a nationwide panel of sportswriters and broadcasters. The Fighting Irish were No. 2 last week.

Auburn, tied at No. 3 with Florida State last week, rose to No. 2 after beating Cal State Fullerton, 38-17. Florida State remained in third after beating East Carolina, 45-24. Idle Michigan moved up one spot to No. 4.

The rest of the top 10: No. 6 USC, No. 7 Tennessee, No. 8 Nebraska and No. 9 Colorado.

Only two weeks into the college football season, injuries have sidelined several standout players.

--Houston wide receiver Manny Hazard, who had an NCAA-record 142 catches last season, will be out for three weeks because of a dislocated elbow suffered in the Cougars’ 37-9 victory over Nevada Las Vegas on Saturday. Houston is ranked 18th.

--Alabama running back Siran Stacy, the team’s leading rusher, underwent surgery on his right knee and is out for the season. Stacy’s top backup, Derrick Lassic, also was injured Saturday.

--Tennessee’s Chuck Webb, who rushed for 1,236 yards last season, suffered torn knee ligaments during a 55-7 rout of Pacific Sept. 1 and will be sidelined for the season.

The Orange Bowl Committee rejected an offer to move to Joe Robbie Stadium and decided to keep the New Year’s night game in its namesake home of 55 years.

Some committee members argued that the rundown condition of the Orange Bowl made necessary a switch to three-year-old Joe Robbie Stadium, located north of the city limits but still in Dade County. Other members said moving out of the Orange Bowl, near Miami’s downtown, would cost the city money and harm its image.

Greg Jones, starting quarterback for West Virginia, has been cleared for practice after suffering a concussion against Maryland, Coach Don Nehlen said. Jones, a fifth-year senior from Miami, Fla., backed up Steve Walsh and Vinny Testaverde at Miami before transferring to West Virginia after the 1986 season. He had backed up Major Harris the past two seasons.
