USC is the best team in football right now and Pac10 probably best conference. SEC fans have a very tough time saying any other conference is better. I'm an east-coaster who recognizes that Pac10 often does not get full respect. I think USC beats up on LSU, Georgia, FLA, Auburn, Mizzou, Okl,,,there, that should piss off a few %^_
1 title in 6 years. Carroll is a good coach, they get tons of talent. I think plenty of other coaches could do with that talent what he has done though.Well Hater, we'll never know...but we do know is that USC is the Rose Bowl Champ and under Pete Carroll has won the Pac 10 six times in a row , 5 & 1 in BCS Bowls, and 2 National Titles.
Awesome Program, they are the Patriots of CFB
2 National Titles- 2003 split win LSU and 2004.
A lot of coaches probably could have done the same as Carroll and we can debate that.
The fact remains, if you are a talented California High School player USC is the place you want to go for obvious reason. That is why they recruit so well and that is why they are solid every year. Undebatable
georgia would have something to say here.
USC was given the AP title in 2003. As for USC and Georgia this year I don't see them being voted as co-champs.

Recognized by who. The national champion is the winner of the BCS title game. It's pretty cut and dry. That's why there is a BCS
Get this through your thick head, USC has 2 titles in the last few years. The BCS is not the end all be all title for the sport. The AP can award the title to anyone they want & they will be recognized as champions. If the AP awarded Georgia or lets say Oklahoma the title, they would be national champions along with whomever the BCS crowns.
Knowing you, if something like that happened you would boast about it but since USC is involved, you downplay it. Typical bullshit from you
Actually USC has one title and the BCS is the end all be all title for the sport. That is why the BCS was put into place to determine a national champion played between the #1 and #2 teams in the country. Yes, the AP can award the title to whoever they want as can any other media source, church group, political party, etc.... That doesn't make a team a national champion.
USC was voted the Rx co-national champion this yr. Maybe they should print shirts and hats.
Actually, the NCAA doesn't recognize a champion in football.Guess what, no matter what you say or feel, USC is a co-national champion & there is nothing you can do about it. The NCAA recognizes USC as a co-champion as well. So lets see who has more authority, an obsessed idiot or the governing body, hmm.....? Tough one
