As I recall, offense wasn't the issue people had with 2003 USC playing in the SEC. It was their defense that people felt would have had them in the middle of the pack.

Which was even more fricking dumb. Pete Carroll has shown he is a defensive genius.

Plus, here is the talent from 03/04 USC defenses:

Kenechi Udeze
Shaun cody
Sedrick Ellis
Matt Grootegoed
Lofa Tatupu
Darnell Bing
Frostee Rucker

The way Mauck was playing towards the end of the year, LSU is really fricking lucky that we got matched against OU instead of USC.

I think USC was a bad matchup for us. Leinart adn Chow's quick west coast offense would've taken away the Dline advantage we had and would've exposed our weaker points like linebackers against TEs and LBers against RBs in the passing game.

Maybe Leinart freaks against the rush and has a bad game, but I truly believe USC would've won that game. (Not that they deserved the title shot)
