I'm sure you wanted to say USC and not Cal. I know it's petty of me to correct, but I figured you'd want to hear it from one of your LSU brethren than from someone else.
I can't wait to see how much ground we've closed on USC in the next BCS. We've come a very long way in the BCS in the past five weeks. I need to make a correction. Cal came back to beat Stanford, so USC's only loss was to a 7-6 Cal team.
And now, who has USC beaten? Auburn? Washington State? You call those quality wins? Come on! Washington State lost to Notre Dame and Washington, a team that lost to Arizona. Auburn has lost to just about everyone.
