USC Would Crush LSU

[WCBias]

Hi all, I'm on my weekly business trip in Las Vegas at the Palms and three sheets to the wind. I was thinking about, well, alot of things really and if you were here right now you would know what I'm talking about...but right now I'm thinking about the past year in college football, how Texas and Oklahoma got exposed as absolute frauds, and then it occurred to me.

If USC had the chance to play LSU after the BCS bowl games....USC would win 40 to 17.

Peace out.

PUFF PUFF PASS...

not PUFF PUFF KEEP..

Put the pipe down...You think anyone can score 40 points on that LSU D ???

This aint the PAC 10 D were dealing with.
Oklahomas #1 offense showed that pretty clearly ~

Hey Bias, I got a little article you need to read....There must be something in the water over their in California....Next thing you'll be telling us is that the Lakers are unbeatable....I do believe USC was pretty good this year but give the Tigers the respect they deserve man!...It's not our fault that USC didn't get to be beat by LSU...Enjoy the sunset over there.......gthtgp!

Sorry all...I've sobered up now and come to my senses.

USC 37 - LSU 10.

We all must stop drinking eventually...Maybe you should try to eat a little boudin or jambalaya...Do the facts in the article mean anything to you?...I would suggest to anyone reading this thread to check it out for them self....

Looks like someone got hit pretty hard on that head with that surfboard...

There are a few NFL teams out there that couldn't hit 40 on LSU's D..try again.

And as much as the national media and many here compare their tv viewing results in siding with USC in this debate, remember Mich is slow, & LSU's average Offense would make plays against the SC secondary...Leinart's moon-balls have too much airtime to not be picked at least once or twice versus LSU, plus pretty-boy would get hit like he never has.

Next year, LSU will have to win at UGA, AUB, & UF, plus face Oreg St at home, if USC's young OL holds serve, and LSU's Jamarcus Russell is all he is touted to be..we will gain some answers to this debate in the Orange Bowl.

Pretty is all relative to the quality of team it was acquired against(USC=11 wins versus 5 loss or greater squads..how impressive!)..these two will have their paths crossed soon by Bowl Execs(as long as equal BCS ranking's permit).

All kidding aside, USC's Offense is scary, the Wild Bunch and the secondary however are just adequate..we'll never know, even if they meet soon, as every year is a different deal, and will never answer the question of '03-'04.

LSU 29 - USC 23..a great D beats a great O..didn't ya' know!

P.S. WC Bias, look up recent articles by LVRJ's Joe Hawk and San Jose writer Skip Bayless(mentions 3 for 3 NFL scouts saying LSU better), also do a search for comments by common foe's Auburn and Arizona players' comments following games, and or comparing the squads.

Hey Shoe---I couldn't have said it better....Did you see today where DL Marlon Favorite committed today 6'3" 315 lbs.? The dynasty continues...I heard Matt Flynn at QB was also the real deal...I predict if Marcus Randall wins the job, QB game rotation will have to happen.....

 

[Horseshoe]

Clicks, today they also got word from Ali Highsmith(Juco-LB recruit from Mia from '03), son of Alonzo, and rejected by his beloved Cane's Admissions Office, thus LSU!..an LB with a chip on his shoulder..I like the idea!

 

[WCBias]

All the respect in the world for LSU...I was 100% them getting a chance to face the best team in the country because they deserved it, and were robbed by having to play a totally overrated Oklahoma team...that almost came back to beat them.

The bottom line is talent, and USC has way more of it. There is one, perhaps two LSU offensive player that could start on USC's offense...There are at least four or five USC defensive players that would start for LSU.

Don't kid yourself about the LSU secondary...they faced NO ONE all year. Michigan's secondary, the supposed best in the country, got exposed within 37 seconds of USC's first possession.

USC's D-Line overrated?....ask Navarre how those 9 sacks felt after only getting sacked 15 times all year.

I'm not here to say USC's defense is as good as LSU's defense...they are not. But LSU's offense is nowhere near that of USC, and college football is the one sport when a team thriving on a good offense faces a team thriving on a good defense, the offensive team wins. There are just better athletes on that side of the ball.

You will see this five years from now when nearly every offensive player for USC is playing in the NFL and LSU has one, maybe two (Mauck, are you kidding me..there are five teams in the Pac 10 he couldn't even start for). Defensively, LSU should have four or five NFL players...But USC will be close to that number.

If USC played in the SEC, their defensive numbers would have been similar to LSU's, and vice versa. I do think LSU would have won the Pac 10, but they would have faced much more potent offenses than they did in the SEC. USC would crush Georgia, Arkansas, and everyone else on LSU's schedule.

And I could sit here and post links to the VAST MAJORITY of peiople in the know who think USC would beat LSU, but you really don't have that much time to read, because it is a long list.

And forget about them playing next year for the national championship, stick a fork in LSU, they lose way too much to make another run. But it sounds like they will be solid in years to come.

Im not sure USC doesnt have every bit the defense LSU has, especailly if Matt Grotegood is playing. LSU didnt shut anybody out this year, including LaMonrow, E ILL. Troy shut down Auburn on the road.

 

[friday]

Your moniker says it all. maybe if you would have given that statement some real thought (40-17?), you might be given some credibility. but you're just head is up herbstreit's and all the so called elite media's ass.

railbird - you, as well with your dumb analysis. LSU was playing with 3rd stringers in a lot of the early games when they were scored upon. and auburn was shut out in consecutive games to start the season. AU was a different team after their offense started to click.

 

[tigerclicks]

Hey Railbird, La Monroe and Western Illinois just ran all over our defense for 7 points each...As Friday mentioned, LaM scored their 7 in the 4th on our 3rd stringers and Western Illinois---picked pre-season #1 division 1AA---scored their 7 in the 3rd on a short field after a turnover....

Please don't tell us about USC's defense---every bit the defense of LSU---You have been drinking that same water that Mr. Bias has...
LSU only allowed 2 teams to score more than 14 points against them--Fla..19 which was the L 19-7 and Arkansas..24 which LSU Won in a tight one 55-24---
Ole Miss and Oklahoma each scored only 14 points against LSU and their offenses both ranked higher than your vaunted USC offense in points scored per game.....

The LSU Defense led the country in TD's allowed with 17 while USC allowed 27.
The LSU Defense was also 2nd in the country in yards allowed per game with 259 per game to USC's 337---The only defense ranked higher was Oklahoma in which LSU outgained 312 to 154 total yards....


SCORE BY QUARTERS 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Total
-------------------- --- --- --- --- ---
LSU................. 130 161 115 69 - 475
Opponents........... 30 23 37 64 - 154



I believe both victories were awesome but for anyone who thinks the human poll that chose USC over LSU should be the one that matters most has been sniffing airplane glue (Or at least they should be)...If you only knew how flawed those AP votes can be...I know of one AP voter who lets his wife make his picks for him...

We LSU fans realize their was another team given another championship trophy but I haven't heard one of us try to diminish the value of your title by saying we would have beat you...(Even though all the computer polls and stats say we would have). We know how to handle ourselves with class and will always give ya'll a little southern hospitality and just maybe in the next few years, we will both get to prove who the real #1 is!

THE DYNASTY WILL CONTINUE IN FOOTBALL HAS IT HAS IN BASEBALL, TRACK & FIELD, and soon to be BASKETBALL! GEAUX TIGERS!!!

 

No one is ever going to know who would win between USC and LSU because these teams are never going to play each other.

You can make a case for either side, but it is really meaningless.

It is a shared NC, which means that both teams get to brag about it. Which is ok with me, under the circumstances.

All of the backbiting about it is kind of silly.
