The 2004 and 2005 Trojan teams had spectacular offenses, and maybe slightly above average D's. The 2003 and 2008 SC teams had the best D's I've seen at SC maybe ever. We'd need a really good D to beat a team like LSU because as the Vince Young Rose Bowl showed us, if they get a stop and you don't, you're done.

04s defense was just as good as 03, they had pretty much everybody back except kenechi udeze. it was the 05 defense that was bad.
