2004 USC > 2001 Miami according to Pat Forde.

there were THREE penalties in that play. Holding, Facemask, AND Passing Interference.

No debate here imo.

Auburn could claim AP national champs of 04 all they want had they been credited so. But, they weren't. So they can't claim that.

If they were named National Champs by the AP, though, I'd have no problem with it at all because unlike you LSU fans, I'm not bitter about my team being overshadowed by another, and I hate the BCS and anything that causes controversy in college football and criticism towards the BCS is great in my mind.

Plus, we all know USC would have killed Auburn that year anyway. That's why nobody really brings it up or even tries to argue that Auburn should have been named AP national champs. Even despite the eastcoast/SEC bias, USC was still named National Champs by the AP in 03 because they were that good and everybody knows it.

Don't hate the player hate the game yo.

You can stand up for your SEC brethren all you want to, I can respect that, but deep down inside your heart you know the truth.

Really WTF. People have a tough time arguing against the fact that the '01 Miami team was the best of ALL TIME. Never mind being the best of the decade. The '01 Miami team could have competed in the NFL that season and have actually won a few games. Just look at the USC team. Matt Leinart, Reggie Bush, LenDale White, and Dwayne Jarrett were all complete NFL busts although they were good college players.

Ken Dorsey says, "No!"

And who gives a shit about whether they were good in the Pros - this is comparing college teams at college level.

Tim Tebow is likely to suck utter balls in the Pros, but I know at the college level who'd I'd rather have between him and David Garrard or Matt Schaub.

Although I would still rank Miami as a better team then USC, but not because they had more successful pros.
