2003 USC vs Auburn

Highlights of the season-opening 2003 USC-Auburn game, when the #8 Trojans traveled to Alabama to take on the #6 Tigers. USC proceeds to shut out Auburn 23-0 behind first-year starter Matt Leinart, who's very first collegiate pass goes for a touchdown to Mike Williams. USC would go on to win a share of the 2003 National Championship.

USC only lost to 1 OOC team during the 2003-2008 seasons. I can't Imagine that would have changed when playing a Florida or LSU. Looking at the way they drubbed Arkansas AND Auburn, I seriously doubt it would have been any different. One proof of that is that the year USC beat Arkansas, that same team won the west and played florida for the SEC championship. I know you SEC fans have Inferiority complexes, but if I can admit this (and I absolutely hate USC), you should be able to as well.

Here's an interesting stat. The sec has played in 23 bcs bowl games and have a 17-7 record in those bowls. But in those 23 bcs bowls they only played the PAC a total of 1 time (auburn-Oregon 2010).

The media protects the sec from playing the PAC because it is the only conference with a winning record against the sec in the bcs era. Since 2000 when the PAC and sec scheduled home and away matches the PAC is 9-3 in those matches.

@shinlanten I know I'm not supposed to be saying this but they have nothing on our defense.

@226jesse whooped their ass in the 2nd half....Auburn BARELY beat  a VERY mediocre LSU team. Plus USC whooped their ass 2 years before..They had their chance.

@theducksfan21

Agreed, but I'll give Georgia and especially LSU their props for not being afraid to travel and play tough OOC opponents.

@theducksfan21

As a USC fan, USC barely beat Virginia Tech that year also.

auburn played like they were the suckish ucla

[theducksfan21]

the sec is scared to play the pac 12 because they dont wanna ruin their rep of being of what they call the best conferense, so how can you call yourselfs the best if you play cupcake teams like chattonooga, arkansas state, or ul monroe, or other teams like that.
