That’s only half of it.
Jim Fyfe passed away not too long before the game. To commemorate his long time tenure and classic calling of “touchdown Auburn,” the fans in the stadium were led in a new Jim Fyfe “touchdown Auburn!” cheer that we all practiced prior to kickoff. One side of the stadium yelled “touchdown” and the other responded with “Auburn.” Obviously, this cheer was to be performed after each Auburn touchdown in honor of our legendary radio caller.
We didn’t score a touchdown that game.
Man, that's the cherry on top of that shite sundae. IIRC, that was Matt Leinart's first career start too. Obviously, no one knew how good he was going to become but that was supposed to be a huge check in Auburn's favor. Jason Campbell took an absolute shellacking from the USC pass rush.
That 2003 USC defense was amazing against everyone not named Aaron Rodgers.
On the plus side, tell your grandkids one day that you saw Auburn hold Reggie Bush and Lendale White to a combined 10 carries for 15 yards!
