re: Best Runner-Up of the BCS Era? (Outside of LSU 2011)

That USC team had won 34 games in a row I believe and had the last two Heisman winners. It's them and it isn't even close. 02 Miami, 11 LSU, 09 Texas, and 10 Oregon all have arguments for the number 2 spot, but I think the top 5 is in the order I listed them.
