May 11 marks a date that resonates deeply with USC football fans—not for a game played, but for the legendary numbers 5 and 11, worn by perhaps the greatest duo in college football history. While we're in the heart of the offseason and the Trojans won't take the field for months, today is a perfect moment to celebrate Reggie Bush and Matt Leinart.

From 2003 to 2005, Bush (No. 5) and Leinart (No. 11) orchestrated one of the most dominant runs the sport has ever seen. They led USC to back-to-back national championships and came within a whisker of a third, powering the Trojans through an incredible 34-game winning streak—an unbeaten stretch that spanned more than 51 months. Both players earned All-American honors and finished in the top five of the Heisman Trophy voting in both 2004 and 2005. Leinart took home the Heisman in 2004, and Bush followed suit in 2005, making them the first Heisman-winning teammates to ever appear together in a game (the 2006 Rose Bowl against Texas).

Today, both jerseys are retired by the Trojans, a fitting tribute to a partnership that defined an era. For fans, 5/11 is more than a date—it's a reminder of a golden age in college football. Whether you're reliving those glory days or just discovering the legacy, it's a day worth celebrating. And if you're looking to channel that Trojan spirit, consider adding a touch of USC pride to your wardrobe—because legends like Bush and Leinart never go out of style.
