We did things day by day. The joke was that we don't have a home gym so we're going to take yours. We had a good team that year because Rip did a good job of keeping us together.

I've always considered that 1972 USC team the best team I've ever seen. I've said that for a long time, and I've seen them all.

We didn't get the win, so we can't be too satisfied. But we showed people we're better than what we were (last weekend). And we showed teams they'd better get ready for us.
along best came deny felt team usc
I always felt the '72 USC team was the best team I ever saw. Then along came '95 Nebraska. Whoa! My word. But if these guys, if USC wins, they've got to be right there, too. You can't deny them that.

If this USC team beats Texas, they're right there with them.
