USC says 2006 Rose Bowl never officially happened

We all remember where we were when this happened.

However, according to USC, that officially never happened. Vince Young may have run into the right corner of the end zone to win the 2006 Rose Bowl, but it’s not recorded in any record books. At least not according to USC.

The Trojans were forced to vacate their 2005 season due to the Reggie Bush sanctions, which means USC erased its lone loss on top of those 11 wins.

So ahead of Texas’s visit to USC on Saturday, the first meeting since The Rose Bowl That Never Happened, USC lists itself as 4-0 all-time against the Longhorns.

The entire practice of vacating games we all witnessed insults our collective intelligence, but blame the NCAA for this, not the Trojans.
