Or, losing to Kentucky and Arkansas (at home) in the same season. That could never happen, now could it. :pimp:...

Their expectations are not that different from LSU fans. In fact, over the past 30 years, the two schools have similar records. Washington has 16 seasons with 8 or more wins, LSU has 18.

I was also there. The game started around noon, I believe. One of the smallest crowds I've ever seen at a USC game. Also probably the quietest. Small but very vocal contingent of LSU fans in the SE corner made most of the noise...

Actually, I believe the line opened @ USC -43. That means the money came in pretty heavy on Stanford for the line to move two whole points. That is a big move here in Vegas. The l...

The time frame referenced was 1990 thru 2001. Not the LAST decade. I'm not disputing the current talent level of the SEC. You are, top-to-bottom, the most talented conference in college football. My point was that even though you had other talented teams during the referenced time frame, you had...

Thank you. You helped me make my point. Nowhere did I say that Florida wasn't an excellent football team during that time frame. However, based on the logic of many of the posters on this board who want to devalue USC's accompl...

Big 12? No. Big 10? No. Pac-10? No. ACC? No. Big East? No. The answer, of course, is Florida of the SEC.
3-0 vs. Arkansas
10-0 vs. South Carolina
11-1 vs. LSU (oh my gosh)

For all of you wanting to denigrate USC playing Notre Dame every year: That would be like me making fun of you all playing Alabama every year. (ND is the equivalent of a conference game for USC because we do play them every year.) Neither of those teams has been good most of this decade, but hist...

In regard to LSU's OOC schedule: Hey, it's your team and you/they can schedule who they want. However, I as a FAN would have difficulty getting excited about buying a ticket to go watch my Tigers trounce teams such as N. Texas, Tulane, Utah St., Mid. Tenn., etc. Obviously it has served you well f...

Rodman: Here are some facts to ponder before you start poking fun at Washington:
From 1989 thru 2007, they had a grand total of 4 losing seasons. None of them prior to this decade. They had 8 seasons with 8 or more wins, including a NC in 1991.
During that same time frame, LSU had 8 losing se...

Posted by TrojaninLasVegas on 7/31/08 at 2:35 pm
Seven of these programs are historically among the all-time great programs, both in terms of total wins and NC. The three Florida schools mentioned are relatively new to the elite landscape (last 25 years) but have certainly made up for lost time. LSU is on the cusp, as he points out, which certai...
