#2 Texas

USC has won all four meetings with Texas, although the teams haven't met since a 17-13 Trojans victory on Sept. 23, 1967 at the Rose Bowl. Southern California's attempt to become the first team to win three straight championships Read More..

Bush was voted the nation's best college football player in a landslide over Texas quarterback Vince Young and USC quarterback Matt Leinart, last year's winner.

Bush received 2,541 points to finish 933 points ahead of Young, with Leinart a distant third. Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn was fourth.

The 784 first-place votes received by Bush was the second-most in Heisman history, topped only by another famous USC runner -- O.J. Simpson, who had 855 in 1968. Bush was first in all six regions and appeared on 99 percent of the ballots, also a Heisman record. for full story. click here!

I am sick to death of hearing about Matt Leinart, Reggie Bush, and USC. So I hope that Texas drags the Trojans up and down the field all night.

Current score 16-7, Texas.

Great to see that a team OTHER than USC has won the National Championship.

Vince Young dominated that game, and he lead his team to victory.

A great game. :bigass:

What a game!!!!!!!!!!!

What a game!!!!!!!!!!!

Indeed. The game went back and forth a lot. USC seemed to gain new life as the second half started, but then Vince Young did what he's been doing all year, and bringing his team back from behind, and leading them to victory.

The only difference, is that this one was for the National Championship.

The last two minutes was just great football.

 

[Caitriona]

It was almost as good as the triple overtime in the Penn State game.

It was ROCKing good football in the last two minutes.

The Penn State vs. FSU game had a different feel to it though. It wasn't a clash of two teams, it was a clash of two coaches. Joe Paterno and Bobby Bowden. There's no telling whether or not we'll see that matchup ever again.

In the end, there were two well coached teams, but you also have to take into account that the game was kind of sloppy as well. 21 penalties, as well as all those missed field goals? But it was a tough defensive struggle throughout the game. Either way, we won't see another one like that for a while.
