All I know is that Michigfan had a top 10 defense, was Big 10 champs that year, and USC piled more than 400 yards on them. The really old argument that they haven't faced a good defense is getting really stale, espcially since they've won 34 straight and blown out 3 straight bowl opponents...
it's a blog, why don't you start clicking links.. that site compares all (except UCLA) the common opponents games this year and last. There is a clear trend of the USC defense becoming significantly better as the year progresses - looking at Cal and UCLA (the last 2 common opponents) will show...
All I said was that if you compare objectively USC defense this year against last year, and normalize it by looking at their opponents's season average, this year's defense has become better statistically than last year's defense.

The Cal game above shows...
Uh, it's the same offensive players (leinart, Bush, White, Jarrett, Byrd, etc) using mostly the same offensive schemes of Chow, with the same coach. So, yes you can use last year's results to predict this years. In fact, these guys have actually gotten more mature and better.
As I said, these...
1. The USC defense is statistically the same or better than last year's defense, if you normalize it for the season averages of their opponents (the average offensive numbers of some of their regular opponents have increased significantly this year)
2. The USC defense is also tops in the nation...
Yeah, that top 10 defense of OU that they shredded earlier this year must have been a dream :roll2:
And a year before that, this same USC offense wiped the floor with a Top 10 Michigan defense that gave out only 5 passing TDs tha entire year.
USC 52
Texas 27
Uh...yes. Actually, USC made it tough for the last 4 games.
But USC won 3 hard-fought games (Oregon, ASU, ND) on the road against ranked opponents, coming from behind ON ALL 3 games to win.
If that's not a championship performance, I don't know what is.
On the other hand, UT has a much weaker...
