While all this is fine and dandy, (and I do agree that USC deserves #1 right now), the voters ignored this and every other logic in 2003..............Here was my effort to discredit the voters then........ 1.) Record LSU 13-1 USC 12-1 Winner - LSU
2.) Common opponents Auburn and Arizona LSU beat Auburn and Arizona by larger margins of victory and in a much more impressive manner, allowing the backups to play, up 31-0 in the 3rd quarter vs Auburn, whereas USC had to keep its first team in the entire game. Arizona players said that LSU was a better team than USC. Arizona's Clay Hart said after this year's game with USC that the Trojans " were really good. But personally, I think LSU was the best team we’ve faced since I’ve been a Wildcat .” Winner - LSU
3.) SOS Coaches Poll - AP poll is similiar
Top 3: LSU - 1 USC - 0 Top 6: LSU - 3 USC - 0 Top 10: LSU - 3 USC - 2
Top 15: LSU - 4 USC - 2 Top 25: LSU - 5 USC - 2 Top 30: LSU - 7 USC - 3 Winner - LSU
4.) Loss LSU lost to Ranked team USC lost to Unranked Florida, whose five losses came from five top 16 teams: Ole Miss, Tennessee, FSU, Miami, and Iowa. Florida beat two top 5 teams. USC lost to unranked 6 loss Cal (Cal did recently beat Virginia Tech, but VA Tech finished the season 1-5 with its only win coming over 1-11 Temple in overtime). Cal beat one top 25 team Winner - LSU
5.) Margin of victory LSU had larger MOV. Not only larger MOV, but vs SOS. Winner - LSU
6.) Polls LSU wins 6/7 computers and 1/2 human polls USC wins 1/7 computers and 1/2 human polls Winner - LSU
7.) Bowl opponents LSU beat #3 USC beat #7 LSU's opponents in bowls 5-1 USC's opponents in bowls 5-1 LSU's bowl opponents avg rank (21) vs their bowl opponent's avg rank (22) USC's bowl opponents avg rank (42) vs their bowl opponent's avg rank (41) Date range of LSU's bowl opponent's games: Dec 31 - Jan 2 Date range of USC's bowl opponent's games: Dec 24 - Dec 31. Winner - LSU
8.) Most impressive win USC's most impressive win was 14 pt. win against #7 Michigan (home game). LSU beat a higher ranked #6 Georgia by more points 21 on the road at Georgia. LSU also beat #3 Oklahoma and #6 Georgia again. That's 3 games vs tougher opponents before USC plays it's toughest. Winner - LSU
9.) Respective conf LSU - SEC: Top 25 - 5 USC - Pac10: Top 25 - 2 Winner - LSU
10.) AP voters, coaches, and media I challenge the AP voters and the 3 coaches that voted USC over LSU to explain their reasoning. I covered just about everything that could be covered, overall record, common opponents, strength of schedule, the loss of each team, the margin of victory, the overall rankings and polls, the bowl opponents and how they faired, the most impressive wins, and I even compared conferences just to be sure I covered everything related to the two teams. It all adds up that most voters and coaches are deliberate liars and cheaters or maybe even clueless who totally ignore facts and it's sad to say that without the BCS, America would of been robbed of the true champion. I find it strange that the media does not present THESE FACTS shown above. I also find it amusing that in their desperate attempt to discredit the BCS, they do so WITHOUT facts, just blurting out opinions without facts. Is the BCS more credible that the voters? You be the judge.
