Nothing will ever "solve" that debacle. That was 9 years ago. And can't we all just agree that Oklahoma was the team that shouldn't have been there?

For me, it's not so much that as the fact that those dominant USC teams NEVER played the dominant SEC team of the year...03 LSU, 04 Auburn, 06 & 08 Florida, 07 LSU. I'm not so sure they would've won many of those games and I was sick of hearing how good they were. At least Bama goes out there and proves it against the very best. I know it's no fault of USC that their NC years never aligned with an SEC team, but it's just something I always hated about those teams.

Close to say in '03. In '04, they damn sure shouldn't have been there.

I can definitely agree with this. Both LSU and USC dropped more than 2 spots in the polls when they lost early in the year. OK gets skull-dragged in the conference championship game and only drops 2 spots? And the AP raises hell about the NC match-up that they created. Definition of hypocrisy.

+1,000,000
Oklahoma got creamed in their conference title game. USC was #1 in AP. Should have been USC-LSU

I think USC fans are grossly mistaken when they think we were mad at the Trojans per se'; we were definitely PO'd that the national media kept going on and on and on and on and on ad nauseum then and even the following year about "USC's 2nd straight NC, going for a three-peat," etc. and absolutely """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""IGNORING""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
LSU's BCS title.
What was hilarious is when USC won the '04 title, no mention was ever made of their """""""""""""AP"""""""""""""" national tile, just their """"""""""""BCS"""""""""""title.
