January Men

USC is one of just four schools to compete in a January bowl game each of the past four years. Can you guess the others?

Iowa, Georgia and Florida State.

Well that will start to change with this year as there are now a couple extra January bowls for crappy teams from the MAC like the GMAC or whatever car finance company bowl the day before the Glendale II game. What a freakin joke that is or is it the Toronto Snow bowl that is the day before the NC game? That one is in Jan as well.

More notably, each of the last 4 were BCS Bowl games for SC. No Peach Bowl. I am certain that Iowa and florida State did not attend BCS bowl games each of the last 4 years. Not sure about Georgia.

and out of those schools, only one has two National Championships.

Reign It

Texas, michigan, ohio state, florida state

Come on Scott are you still living in the 20th century? The term "January Bowl game" meant something to College Football fans like 10-15 years ago. But with the advent of the BCS Bowl Series in 1996 the term "January Bowls" became moot.

So, which is the ONLY school that has played in a BCS Bowl game every year for the last four years? Hint -- it isn't UGA, Iowa or Florida State...

I'll guess:

Ohio State, Miami, and ?

USC: 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006. Fight On!!!
