They clearly wouldn't have won in 2006 when they lost the championship game. Are you assuming because they beat overmatched Big 10 rivals in home games that they would have automatically won the MNC each year?

I think it is safe to say that with a BCS system in place, New England would have won at least 13 titles during the Bill Belichick era.

Just an opinion thats all. I think they won outright one year. They were screwed out of it another year although they were undefeated. I think they were the best team in college football this year and in 2006 as well.

I cant back my statement up though. Its just my opinion from watching the games. The USC teams have had a level of speed and quality unmatched over the last 8 years in my opinion.

I should have said 2005, the year they lost the Championship Game to Texas.

The thing that I'm just so tired of hearing is every year when the BCS games roll around, USC beats up on a scrub from a remarkably weak conference in a home game and everyone crows about how they should be the National Champion.

I suppose I've been jaded ever since ESPN ran a series on the 2005 USC team being the greatest ever with Mark May saying they would have beaten any of the 10 best teams chosen for comparison when they hadn't even finished the season yet. Then they lost.

The Trojans ought to do something they haven't done in a while next year. Win all of their conference games, including the ones to unheralded programs like Stanford. Then they can be where they always assume they belong, the National Championship game.
