Would board members consider the USC win last year as a signature win?
USC was undefeated, coming off a win over #11 at the time Arizona, had the leading Heisman candidate, an offensive wizard as a coach, etc. And Marcus and co beat the shit out of them. It was so bad that "Mahomes-esque" all world QB who painted his fingernails for the event didn't even finish the game.
To me, if the term means anything, that was it.
I've never understood what the term "signature win" means, however...
