I didn't really hate USC until they hired Kiffin. I just think he is a dick that is living off his daddy's name, which based on how porous USC's defense was this year, ain't what it was.

But I would still frick his wife six ways from Sunday

and there is where the inferiority complex comes in. I've heard Miami fans bitch about sharing a title with Washington or Michigan fans gripe about Nebraska.

All dates back to the 2003 season. I heard a LSU fan in a Metairie bar once tell me that OU shouldn't even have been there since they lost to a ranked K-State team who won the Big 12 that season.

I guess that fan forgot that USC not only didn't play a conference championship game that year, but also the fact that USC lost to an unranked Berkeley team in '03.

Oh well, it's all water under the bridge now and USC's season was erased.

USC and the AP sucking their dicks is the cause of this.

This is the first time in the history of the AP poll that their pre-season #1 finished the season with 6 losses. Six fricking lossess!!!

The AP Poll is a joke.

frick USC and frick the AP Poll.

I don't think its an inferiority complex at all. Both LSU and USC were good around the same time.

FWIW - I know a lot of USC fans. They don't like us either. And we aren't an 'irrelevant' topic to them.

like 2007 and 2008 when USC had the same record as teams in the BCS CG but didn't make it because they were ranked so low?

OU shouldn't have been there because they didn't win their conference and got their arse kicked in their one loss, where as USC lost by 3 in 3 OT's.

If they're on tv and people are talking about them, they're relevant.

So you are proving my point about LSU fans having an inferiority complex then.

Two words: Janzen Jackson. All you need to know about Lane Kiffen's character, or lack of same.

Yeah, really a shame looking back on it that we didn't get Jackson

We're not talking about Lane Kiffin, we are talking about USC and LSU fans and this board were crying about USC long before LK got there. LK is a douche nozzle but he is not why people hate USC.

Yes, the AP voters felt they were the best team in the country. The Coaches are forced to put the BCS title game winners as #1, so we don't know how they really felt.

It's not so much that we didn't get Jackson, but that we got played so we couldn't recruit a replacement.

I dont know where youve been the last 10 years but LSUs football program is much better than USCs. Maybe u should quit listening to ESPN and look up their records or watch the games
