USC recently was picked to win the Pac-10 title by the media for the fifth straight year. But that's nothing compared to the Trojans' streak of 18 straight years (1965-82) picked to win the title.

If I remember right, John got off to a rocky start in 1960, and had to beat the bRUINS in 1961 to save his job--we were nat'l champs in 1962 and the rest is history!

That streak can't be right. Stanford was awesome with Plunket in 70 & 71. And we stunk in 71 when I was a freshman!
