USC had a great defense in '04 and a great defense in '06. But in '05 not so much. They forced some to's and because their offense was so great that's all they had to do. They gave up a lot more points than we did. And I their closest games, ND and Fresno State their offense bailed them out their defense wad not getting the job done. When we finally stopped them on 4th down their defense had to be the ones to get the job done and they did not do it.

We definitely had the better defense. USC had better defenses in 04/06, but the nastiest one was in '08 with Matthews, Cushing, and Maualuga as Sr LBs.
