I remember watching this game live. Can't believe its been 20 years. I sat down and rewatched the whole thing and wow, i had forgotten how stout the USC defense was in those days. Hard hitting game.
It wasn't just USC but Miami as well! Its simple! Look at the SEC run of success 2003 to 2020 start of NIL! Where were they heavily recruiting Southern California and South Florida. USC and Miami are located in these two area. If they ran right, they can compete with and beat the top of the SEC.
@@arronfrazier7873 💯 Both are private schools as well. NCAA decision makers didn’t like having zero say so they were handled. Shoot, add SMU to the list. Only privatized colleges have ever gotten harsh sanctions. Isn’t hard to figure out…
@@BamsCam226 I'm a Miami fan, who was born and raised in Chicago to the age of 17 until moving to Central West coast of Florida/Tampa Bay area. I've lived in Florida for over 20 years with friends from Tally, to Jacksonville, to Orland, to Ft. Myers/Sarasto to South Florida. The stories of SEC bag men all sounded just like the bag men back in Chicago with Chicago/Chicagoland HS BB recruits. The NCAA refused to do anything to the top SEC schools! Hell, they didn't do shit to the SEC schools who didn't win the SEC or win a national title!
USC under Pete Carroll had a motto, Anybody, Anytime, Anywhere. They also played AT Arkansas, AT Ohio State, AT Virginia Tech, AT Nebraska, AT Notre Dame, AT Virginia, AT Kansas State, and AT Penn State just to name a few.
@@SportZFan4L1fe That was not under Carroll, that was under every USC head coach. USC always played anyone, anywhere, anytime. Here are USC out of conference games, minus Notre Dame, in the 1970s 1970 - At Alabama, Nebraska, At Iowa 1971 - Alabama, At Rice, Illinois, At Oklahoma 1972 - At Arkansas, At Illinois, Michigan State 1973 - Arkansas, At Georgia Tech, Oklahoma 1974 - At Arkansas, At Pitt, Iowa 1975 - Duke, Purdue, At Iowa 1976 - Missouri, At Purdue, Iowa 1977 - At Missouri, TCU, Alabama 1978 - Texas Tech, At Alabama, Michigan State, At Hawaii 1979 - At Texas Tech, Minnesota, At LSU Notre Dame every year You will never find a tougher, decade long, OOC schedule like USCs in the 1970s.

Nebraska Oklahoma Notre Dame Pitt Alabama USC played 18 games versus these 5 schools in the regular season in the 1970s.
crazy auburn went undefeated the next year but we wonder how usc auburn would of matched well they played in 03 usc defense dominated but, the 04 auburn team was different.
Also the SC defeated Virginia Tech very handily on opening day on the ROAD .. the same team that Auburn would’ve lost to in their bowl game if the tech receiver hadn’t dropped a TD pass in the end zone. 😉
@@willmuny9201 Most schools offer renewal/non-renewal scholarships, which are year-to-year contracts that are reviewed for renewal/non-renewal at the end of the award period. Therefore, a poor performer runs the risk of not having their scholarship renewed. Also, they generate the money so they should get a share.
@@Beck-Stein maybe but it was clear once Darnold, Juju, Adoree, etc. left that it was them and not Helton. Yeah we don’t know how Riley will do without Caleb but the same was asked after Mayfield, Murray, and Hurts left. He’ll definitely get a solid season out of Moss and maybe better defense now that he finally canned Grinch.

That SC D..front 7 was lights out!!
This game started it all. It was this win that began the Pete Carroll dynasty.
Leinart was “cool and collected” because he faced a legendary defense during practice each week.
This was the game Paul Dee, the NCAA and the SEC decided to put together a plan to destroy SC football. Fight On ✌🏼

Awesome game!!
This is how you stop the run
man i had no idea USC traveled all the way to Auburn
And whipped their butts!

@@SportZFan4L1fe all of this, except USC always travels to Notre Dame and vice versa. Besides that, any time, any place, anywhere✌️

21 years
The beginning of the Pete Carroll Trojan dynasty
None of that neutral site garbage. This is why I respected Carroll. It was home and home series. Unlike some cowards like saban and smart

04 USC was 3x better than 03 USC
04’ SC team would have done the same thing to Auburn as they did Oklahoma.
Also the SC defeated Virginia Tech very handily on opening day on the ROAD .. the same team that Auburn would’ve lost to in their bowl game if the tech receiver hadn’t dropped a TD pass in the end zone. 😉
Watching this just makes me more aggravated at the current state of SC under Lincoln Riley…..sigh
Loved the way SC just STUFFED that overrated SEC team. SEC can’t beat SC when SC is firing. Auburn is a joke. 😂😂😂😂
These two teams were solid as a rock, great teams and players and guess what no NIL money. NIL will ruin college football
Also coaches weren’t being paid ridiculous amount of money.
absolutely correct.
no it shoudnt . Let them make money

Players were getting paid even then, bro.
When USC had a real coach unlike now with Riley
Not like the bar was set so high with Clay Helton calling the shots before him
@@Nick_Simpson007 aside from a heisman, clay had nearly the same record as riley

Nutcase. So Riley isn’t a real coach? Bitter, bitter, bittttttttter. Quit crying Okie- homa. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
