True but I'm talking name programs that get attention..UT and USC have won

Yep, these are both great wins even though both UT and USC are lousy this year

Their best win is against Stanford, who got curb-stomped at UCF today.

What happens with Stanford doesn't say how good or bad USC is.

LaVell’s teams didn’t have a lot of back to back games against big names

How many seasons featured a schedule with back to back P5 games?
