Although Utah 2008 finished #2. But I thought 2004 was a better team. I guess you could pick either
Does the fact that USC had to vacate two wins from the 2004 team have any affect picking them 1st? That was a phenomenal team.
Miami obviously had a lot of talent and their shellacking of #3 Texas to end the season tells you how capable they were. But they lost two games, including a loss to a 3-loss BYU team.
