2003 USC Football - The Tradition Continues 

Ur right and I'm Auburn fan

@I wish my ex would die that cal team had Aaron Rodgers and Marshawn Lynch

@@wejuggernautentertainmentl3156 That Cal team went 6-6 and lost to the Kansas St. team that beat Oklahoma.

not with that defense

Your right time flies

Na Saban a totally different kind of coach

Probably one of college football's most unanswered questions. Who was better? USC or LSU? Pete Carroll or Nick Saban? The 2003 teams would have matched USC's better offense against LSU's better defense. While the LSU defensive line may have been more physical, I don't buy that LSU was more athletic though. It is often argued that USC's wide receivers have never matched up against physical DB's like LSU but you could also argue that LSU had never seen such a diverse passing attack as USC? Outside of Florida, the SEC wasn't much of a passing conference. I don't know but I would have really loved to see an LSU - USC matchup.

I’ve always had an out of consensus view this was the best Carroll team. The running game wasn’t 04 or 05s yet but the receiving corps in Williams, Smith and Colbert was ridic and Leinert had his most efficient season. The D was arguably the best of the era particularly the DL with tatupu and Grootegooed plugging holes and corner rushing. The other thing is there were some close calls in 04 and 05 that people don’t remember but in 03 the Cal game was only close game and lost it in double OT to a Cal team with Aaron Rodgers firing on all cylinders. And they blew out top-rated teams like Wash St and Auburn at home. The Rose Bowl was over in the third quarter with the D totally dominating a solid Michigan team. It’s an interesting counter factual though but I think if athleticism was the only edge LSU had, it wasn’t by much given the talent of this SC team. It’s a squad I’d put on par with any of the 90s Nebraska or 2010s Alabama teams

Samuel Haskins that’s a great point and don’t disagree. Just in general I think people overlook the fact the 04 and 05 teams had some very close calls whereas the 03 team destroyed everyone except the 3x OT loss away to Cal

No, you're not crazy. You're definitely a bit stupid, though. USC cheated their way to being an all time great in 04. The 03 team was not that great, didn't even make it to the title game.

Jeaux Burreaux damn dude

@@michaelmore2luv Facts hurt sometimes.

@@greymooose1000 can't really take away what they did on the field tho

@@greymooose1000 we all read some stupid shit on the net but this is by far the dumbest shit ever.

Nope. I don't think they did a year end video for 2004

One Hour Football they did. The theme for the season was “no doubt” . It was on RU-vid but they took it down for some reason

@@michaelmore2luv RU-vid, as directed by the Pac 12, takes down much of my Pac 12 videos so I'm not surprised that RU-vid took it down. I'll check my files. Maybe I have it and just neglected to upload it?

One Hour Football dang but yeah bro whatever you gotta do!

​@@michaelmore2luv it's on there now

We didn't "claim" anything. It was handed to us by the AP, who's been handing out national championships since the 1930's. It was the only recognized national championship given before the BCS and CFP. Only time they've ever given it to a team who didn't win the BCS national championship. They along with a lot of people thought it was BS that SC didn't get to play in the title game and thought they were the best team in the country all year.

@@hamsammy8184 idk if in 03 USC woulda beaten LSU in 04 most def. If you saying stuff about AP handing out national titles then so many other teams from 04 to 2021 can claim them.

​@@savagetigerfbfan6673 You're just a LSU/SEC fanboy, SC would've spanked LSU lol.LSU shouldn't of even been in the national title game with their cupcake schedule look it up. SC doesn't play cupcakes like Lousiana Monroe. And wtf are you talking about? AP is the OG national title and like I said, this is the only time in history they've picked someone other than BCS champion so obviously they have a point lol. Guess I shouldn't be suprised you guys need yard markers every 5 yards down there...yeesh

@@hamsammy8184 cupcake schedule?? Gimme a break lol LSU is top 5 every year in toughest schedules played you wanna talk about schedules? It’s a shame that in that pac 12 conference some years you had the most talent in the conference and can’t win it. Oklahoma was prolly the best offense in the country that year along with the best defense it was one of the most complete teams I seen in my lifetime and they averaged a ton of points per game and our defense held em to 14. In that case they coulda made an argument that in 2004 auburn that didn’t get to play in the natty the AP could crown em and in 2017 UCF the only undefeated team that beat auburn a team that beat the national champs Bama that didn’t even win the SEC west that year.

2 words: Associated Press

Gtfoh ncaa was protecting there step child the "sec" from the Trojans doing what we always do to SEC teams DOMINATE

It's a crime they didn't play Saban vs Carroll in retrospect would have been legendary matchup

auburn was different team in 04 though

Holy shit your comments keep getting stupider.

@jason mccormick Yeah, just like Cal.

@Cavalcade of Fred Couples Thanks for the info. Next time I'm looking for comments that don't have anything to do with anything, you're my guy.

@@greymooose1000 just like yours? lol

@@michaelmore2luv Well... yeah. I suppose if USC is just making up titles, the fact that they didn't actually win has nothing to do with the fiction they're telling themselves. Good point.
