As a Trojan fan, I agree fully with what you have said. I also think this might serve as both a wake up call to USC, as it gives them something to prove and it could prove to add some complacency to LSU, as now, in their minds, they have gotten what they have deserved all along.

I am perfectly fine with being #2 and settling it in the Sugar Bowl.

“I am perfectly fine with being #2 and settling it in the Sugar Bowl.”

Still won’t matter. USC would likely boat-race LSU just like they have pretty much every other non-conference opponent over the past five years (the exception a last-second loss to Vince Young) including 4 consecutive years of SEC opponents Auburn and Arkansas, but LSU and SEC fans would still insist that they were better.

“I also think this might serve as both a wake up call to USC, as it gives them something to prove...”

I sure hope so.

Speaking of that, LSU had better watch out for Florida as well. I wouldn’t be surprised if Florida makes a strong comeback after their loss.
