You can argue the order, but the top 3 are LSU, USC and Florida. Next, OSU and Oklahoma, in no particular order.

This is correct.

Top programs 1-12 = SEC
13-119 the rest.

Please check USC's record in bowls, against top 5, 10, 20, 25 teams.


I remember during the BCS title game between LSU and tOSU, it was mentioned that although both the Buckeye and Trojan defenses were 1-2 and LSU was #3 nationally, the Tigers had played over twice as hard of a schedule as either team.

There's been a reason USC hasn't gotten into more BCS title games, besides losing to teams you shouldn't lose to.

It's the schedule.

Dennis Dodd is an idiot. You can argue over the order of UF& LSU @ 1 & 2, but USC is 3rd; record doesn't mean so much when you're comparing play in the PAC-10 vs play in the SEC. List should read:

1-2 UF & LSU ( arguements for both as 1/2 )
3 USC
4-5 OU / OSU
6 UT
7 Miami
8- UGA, VT, and others

OU's 6-3 against UT. They both have 1 NC. OU has 6 conf titles and has been to 7 BCS games. UT has ONE Big 12 Championship and has been to 3 BCS games. Seems clear to me.

OSU has the same amount of NC's as UT, has 4 more conference titles, been to 3 more BCS games, and have the same amount of BCS wins.

They're actually 2-5, and really only got "creamed" in 2 of those games, FWIW. Besides, maybe they wouldn't have made it so far if Texas would've done better against them and won the conference two or more times.

Not like the Big 12's the SEC.

Once again, Texas has only even been there once.

OSU got screwed by the refs. Game shouldn't have even gone to OT.

You can say Texas beat USC due to a bad call. I think it was the 2nd Quarter and Vince Young pitched the ball to the HB (Young) while his knee touched the ground, they hurried up to kick the field goal before instant replay and missed the extra point.

Team A...............Team B
2 NCs................2 NCs................Even
3 SECs...............3 SECs...............Even
9 Win seasons........9 Win seasons........Even
5 10+ Win seas.......4 10+ Win seas.......Team A
90-27 record.........87-29 record.........Team A
7-2 Bowl rec.........4-5 bowl rec.........Team A
4-0 BCS..............3-1 BCS..............Team A

It is obvious that Team A has a better resume than Team B, but Team B is killing Team A for Program of Decade?

Over 95% of you'll voted Team B as POD.....WHY??

Honestly i agree with USC and Texas but not Oklahoma.. I grew up in Austin and watched the amazing Vince Young. Also the '05 NC game where they said that the USC offense was probably the best ever, well what does that say about the Texas defense? Including Michael Huff and Michael Griffin. I would def Put the LSU team at #4 over Oklahoma. Although i might just hate OU

I'll answer that for you since no one else apparently will: for no good reason. It's team A >>> Team B.
