The 2000 Oklahoma team had an incredible offense. Heupel was robbed of the Heisman, and they had Mike Leach, who has since created the best offense in the nation. Their defense didn't start to gel until late in the season, but once it did, they would be a very tough test for either of this year's Rose Bowl participants, as would the 2001 Miami team.
Dating back, the first team that I would expect to beat this year's USC team would be 1995 Nebraska.
