Lance Armstrong slams USC for listing perfect record vs. Texas
Warning: Story contains coarse language
Lance Armstrong hasn't forgotten about USC's 41-38 loss to Texas in the 2006 Rose Bowl.
As ESPN's Kyle Bonagura noted Tuesday, USC lists the Trojans as 4-0 all time against the Longhorns, omitting the Rose Bowl game, which was vacated along with all of their wins from the 2005 season due to NCAA violations involving Heisman Trophy winner Reggie Bush.
This whole thing is silly, but here's the explanation for why USC lists its record vs Texas as 4-0. https://t.co/tPAdtYNLDr pic.twitter.com/W0p2V0Lou2

That prompted Armstrong, who himself was stripped of seven Tour de France titles for using performance-enhancing drugs, to put USC on blast for the claim and its treatment of Bush:
Negative @USC, we were there. You lost the game fair and square. Btw, @ReggieBush is a fucking legend that you shit all over. https://t.co/UU5qeotjUG
