Sorry, I can't match your superior intellect. Thanks for the insult! You're the man.

I just typed it wrong. Damn. Everyone knows they obviously have the #1 program in their conference. I don't lace my weed with angel dust.

Let me clarify...it's debatable that USC has the #1 nat'l program now as they play in the PAC10. They clearly have the #1 program on the entire West Coast. USC is phenominal. But not head and shoulders above everyone else. If they were, they'd go undefeated every year. They can't even go through the PAC10 undefeated. If u think USC would have as many wins this decade while playing in the SEC, then that's a testament to your football knowledge, as all reasonable and unbiased football fans, publications, and pundits concede that the SEC is tougher than the PAC10 right now. I say the SEC is the best right now, but not by much. CFB is much more competitive than it used to be 10 years ago. The powerhouses can't stack up like they used to. The days of a coach like Bear Bryant visiting a highschool for a monster prospect and having him in his back pocket by lunch time are over. Kids today want playing time more than anything. $$$$.


First off I never said head and shoulders better than everyone else. I just said the #1 program right now.

Secondly USC has had a tougher overall SOS than any SEC team over the past 6 years. Accordinf to Sagarin our SOS average for the past 6 years is 11. No SEC team comes close to that. Our SOS last year was the weakest this decade, with Idaho being so bad, and Nebraska and Notre Dame all having historically horrible years that is not typical for those programs. USC plays 6 home and 6 road games. That is already much tougher than the typical 8 and 4 you get in the SEC.

USC would be just as dominant anywhere. In our 4 games with SEC teams we have had 1 which was competitive. Every other one was a blowout. Our 2 wins over Arkasnas were far worse than any SEC team could do to them. In fact in 2005 USC beat Arkansas by more points than the rest of the SEC COMBINED!!!

Typical myopic redneck response. USC would be the #1 program in any conference. Just like Miami would have been in the early part of the decade, or Nebraksa in the 90's.


Look, the system all the major conferences agreed upon is the BCS. By the BCS system, USC is maybe third best. It has two BCS championship game appearances and 1 BCS title. LSU has 2 appearances and two titles. Ohio State has 3 appearances and 1 title.

No way, by any reasonable standard, that USC has the #1 program during the BCS era.

Yeah, USC got some love in a popularlity contest in 2003 when it got ranked #1 in the AP poll. But that's exactly what it was; a popularlity contest. The true "champion" that year...according to what all the BCS conferences agreed to going in...was LSU.

LOL. I suspect many crying buckeye fans that day. I'll be there though, and I have the feeling that some drunk Zero St. fan is going to go to far and end up getting knocked out. Hope not, just got that feeling though.
