On Thursday, Bleacher Report released a ranking of the “Most Memorable College Football Plays Since 2000,” including the Bush Push at No. 7.
Which prompted a thought: Is the Bush Push really the most memorable USC Football play of this century?
Or is it the play which preceded it, 4th-and-9?
It’s a tough question to answer as both plays were required for USC to complete one of their greatest victories in the history of the Trojan-Irish rivalry.
As Bleacher Report’s ranking shows, from a national perspective, the Bush Push has lived on as one of those incredible sports moments, largely because of the claim that the push should have resulted in a penalty.
