And Texas was no factor in USC playing their "C" game at home? Seems to me Texas had a lot of kids get to the NFL off that team. I hate Texas but they put up 41 on the SC defense. If Ohio St hasn't been a top-5 program the last five years, please name 5 better.
No, not really when you see how it was self inflicted in terms of the mistakes USC made. What has Ohio State accomplished in CFB (not talking NFL draft picks) over the last 5 years? They pad their record in an average conference & get their ass handed to them by superior teams in terms of speed & talent. I wouldn't brag about those accomplishments.
Lsu was solid team, nice nose tackle and fullback. Sanchez is a prime time player though. Muluaga is next Junior Seau. Joe Mcknight also special.

The Big 10 has hung with the SEC in head-to-head bowl games the last few years. Outside of Ohio St's nightmares, the conference has been fine. Ask Florida who was supposed to kill Michigan last year.

I don't think you can base that strictly on bowl games.
Bowl games are different and a lot of factors play.

Than what else can you base it on? The SEC gets every bowl game at home, so they should have a great record, right? Much of the hate for Ohio St is because they played poorly in BCS games the last couple of years.
railbird, I appreciate your thread and your opinions. Wanted to comment regarding last week's SDSU vs ND. That was a good call. Keep it up and good luck.
Sold my USC tickets, Im batten down the hatches, Im in the hut for the next 36 hrs Tuna fish sandwiches and grape juice.
Going to take some of my sat winnings which will be many, taking Buff +5.5, Den +3 minus 35 good luck.
