2003's ending was screwy. I would have rather played USC and believed they would have presented us with a bigger challenge...White was gimpy as hell that game and OU was given a pass for what they did before the Big XII C'ship game.

The funny thing about 2003...it all goes back to this:

USC and LSU both played Auburn that season, but not Ole Miss. Auburn's Ben Obamanu (I believe it was him) dropped a wide open TD pass from J Campbell. Had he caught that pass, AU would have beaten Ole Miss and SC's SOS rating would have surpassed ours. Ole Miss finished as the 3rd best SEC team that year when Auburn was a dropped pass away from being 3rd.

So much is put on the last day and night of football with the Syracuse win over Notre Dame (who USC played) and Boise's win over Hawaii (who USC had played). I tell ya though...that Auburn loss at home to Ole Miss was the reason we won a 2003 NC. That drop made Ole Miss a better SOS win.

Agreed, just pointing out that he had his moments and dont forget his positive contributions to the program.

Actually, I want to go back to your quoted stats. No one ever touted him as an all american nor a heisman candidate. We won the ship that year, so I dont give a rats arse if he didnt light it up in those games.
