Yeah, USC is a great school with a great past. There is no doubt about USC being great; in fact, USC is the only team in the PAC 10 who has really done anything on a consistent basis.

Is it that they never played them? My father and brother played Div I ACC football (43 years apart  ) and bets like a fiend and never get into smack talking like that. My MD father in law who never played the game, otoh, will argue the greatness of the SEC all day long.

No, you know my history with college sports. After living the life of sports entourage for 36 years I'm more inclined to kill something or play XBOX.

Go Buckeyes! BTW, I did play baseball in high school. Was a pretty good second baseman, until I had a revelation..... I was too short and too slow to play in the majors. That's the day I joined the speech and debate team and never looked back....

SEC, since you are so enamored with numbers, here are a few numbers for you to digest, along with your jambalaya, beignets and chicory coffee.
These are all football championships which, incidentally, the NCAA does not count towards the total numbers of national titles. NATIONAL TITLES Team -- # of Recognized titles -- Winning years: Notre Dame 13 1924, 1929, 1930, 1938, 1943, 1946, 1947, 1949, 1953, 1966, 1973, 1977, 1988 USC 11 1928, 1931, 1932, 1939, 1962, 1967, 1972, 1974, 1978, 2003, 2004 Alabama 11 1925, 1926, 1930, 1945, 1961, 1964, 1965, 1973, 1978, 1979, 1992 Oklahoma 9 1949, 1950, 1953, 1955, 1956, 1974, 1975, 1985, 2000 Ohio State 7 1942, 1944, 1954, 1957, 1961, 1968, 2002 Michigan 7 1901, 1902, 1932, 1933, 1947, 1948, 1997 Minnesota 6 1934, 1935, 1936, 1940, 1941, 1960 Nebraska 5 1970, 1971, 1994, 1995, 1997 Pittsburgh 5 1916, 1918, 1936, 1937, 1976 Miami 5 1983, 1987, 1989, 1991, 2001 Texas 4 1963, 1969, 1970, 2005 Tennessee 4 1938, 1950, 1951, 1998 Georgia Tech 4 1917, 1928, 1952, 1990 Harvard 4 1910, 1912, 1913, 1919 MOST AP NATIONAL CHAMPIONS (Since 1936, the Associated Press has polled sportwriters resulting in an annually awarded national championship.

BTW, go back to the beginning of this thread and see who began taking cheap shots at USC's schedule. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I began posting on this thread by congratulating LSU and wishing them luck against OSU. But if you guys are going to talk smack about 'SC, then I have no choice but to set the record straight. BTW (part 2). I like Nowlins. It is the city with the most "Latin" flavor in the U.S. I have fond memories of stuffing my face at Commander's Palace. I also have fond memories of drinking at O'Brien's and then trying to walk to Jackson Square for late night beignets. I just don't like people talking garbage about USC.

I see a reoccuring theme in your posts. The only team in the pac 10 with a history of football excellence is USC. However, the SEC has won 21 ntaional title and the Pac 10 has won 15. Take USC away from the PAC 10 and you have another Mountain West conference.
