LSU would've lost to USC in 2003, IMO.

We'll never know, but LSU and USC had two common opponents and LSU beat both teams by a point more than USC. They were pretty evenly matched, but LSU's D at the end of the season was phenomenal (as UGA found out when they played LSU the 2nd time in the SECCG and got destroyed). OU was favored in the title game and had 154 total yards.
