The better team won, no doubt about it. Texas didn't even need that blown chipshot field goal. Vince Young was on fire and absolutely not to be denied.
Plus, according to an upthread "screencap", with 5:12 left in the game, USC led Texas 38-26. USC did not score again, while Texas scored two touchdowns AND a two point conversion. I kept saying that whoever got the defensive stop in the fourth quarter would win the game, and tonight it was Texas.
Both teams can be proud of the effort, and the posters can be proud of an excellent thread.
