USC defeated Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl by a score of 55 -- 19, which earned the Trojans their second consecutive AP title and first - ever BCS title. The Orange Bowl win and accompanying BCS title were later vacated as part of the sanctions levied against USC following an NCAA investigation. USC appealed the decision but was denied by the NCAA, and the 2004 BCS title was officially vacated on June 6, 2011.
