1. I got this from another board: LSU is definitely an elite team in this century.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------
    All games played thru Jan 4, 2006. Assuming Tx, Ga, VaT, Aub win and Oh St, Louisville. S. Cal lose. The LSU record v this illustrious group during the period 2000-2005 is 7-6, of course including stunning wins over #1 and #2.


    1. Miami 64-10....865
    2. Okla 68-11....861
    3. Tx 65-11....855
    4. Ga 61-16....792
    5. USC 59-17....776
    6. LSU 59-18....766
    7. OhSt 57-18....760
    8. VaT 58-19....753
    9. Louvl 56-19....747
    10. Aub 56-20....737
  2. Wow! How can ESPN's Greatest team of all time (usc) be only half a game better than LSU?
  3. Well they play in the toughest of ALL conferences; perhaps you heard of it on ABC, NBC, CBS, ESPN,ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPN Classic, FOX, CNN, et al.........the PAC 10! :hihi:
  4. I heard most of it on ESPIN !!:lsup:
  5. "This century" started with the 2001 season, not 2000, so I have to take exception... given my beloved Hawkeyes are 45-16 in this century. Now if we could just get rid of our 2001 record of 7-5, we'd be 38-11 in this century.

    Of course I wouldn't make this point unless it worked for me.:shock:

    I'm pretty sure Texas has the best record in the 21st century at 55-8, one better than either USC or Miami.
  6. Three SEC teams in the top ten. I just wonder how many others are in the next ten. My point being that they have to play each other - win a few - lose a few, but over these six years the SEC knocks off other SEC teams. Auburn plays LSU and GA every year, along with AL, almost wonder how they managed a top ten slot.
