ESPN Top 10 Teams
ESPN Sports Nation ranked the top 10 teams of the last 50 years:
http://sports.espn.go.com/chat/sport...schistory02osu They have us as the 10 seed and are asking for a vote on a game between 2005 USC vs. Teams from the past. The OSU vote isnt yet but you can see the matchup. |

Funny how they are annoiting 2005 USC as one of the best ever! Same could have and was said regarding the 2002 Miami Hurricanes. ESPN should know better than proclaiming a team one of the best ever before the national championship is played. I think Texas gets to vote on USC's dominance on Jan. 4th.

hmmm interesting matchup. to be honest i dunno if that osu team would beat USC. our defense would have to stop them which would be quite a feat but then again our defense was pretty amazing. i believe right now at this point and time we are the best team in the nation imo but we lost 2 games and we are out of it so its out of our control.

From the article: "Despite completing only seven passes and gaining 267 total yards, Ohio State showed the resolve and determination they had the entire season. They forced five Miami turnovers, converted a fourth and 14 pass in overtime, sacked Ken Dorsey four times and were on the benefiting end of the most famous flag in college football history."
It's a damn shame that such a great group of kids and such a great group of football players that showed what being a team is all about is forced to have this phrase follow their accomplishments wherever they will go. But we all know what an amazing group these guys were and they will forever be the UNDISPUTED, UNDEFEATED 2002 National Champions, no matter what. |

Regarding USC's great O against OSU 02's great D..........
Defense wins championships. |

While Leinart throws a great ball, I think he is too much of a statue to escape a rush like OSU had in 02 (he can run in a straight line well enough). Bush of course is just plain ridiculous... and blows away a talented mcgahee. However the rest of the offense is pretty similar: Byrd/Winslow are comparable (edge: KW), Jarrett/Johnson (slight edge: Jarrett), Smith/Parrish (wash). After breaking it down, it's interesting how similar the two offenses are. |

2005 USC has absolutely no business being anywhere near that list unless and until they win the NC. All the more reason for me to root for UT on the 4th. Not that I needed another reason to root against USC.
