USS clashed with the original iteration of Back Hand Clique. That had some great battlers, a lot of whom haven't really lasted in history, but Top Notch was the figure head who is one of the greatest of all time. It was one of those rivalries that completely consumed the forums, and in my memory there's only two crew fueds that ever done that and that was USS Vs SMACK and ACs Vs MM.
Eventually an official crew battle went down and USS won. Was a huge victory and solidified USS as the number one crew on the site. Remember at this time UA was beating everyone left right and centre in the open forums. Something people forget is just how important open battling used to be and he was out there winning Vs everyone. Like imagine a battler's record being "Rai, Lockhart, Rican, RULE, REZN, EtH, Sabu, Celsius", that's the sort of back to back wins UA was putting together when he was in USS.
Specific title wins weren't recorded the same way back then so I couldn't tell you, but I can say that in 13 years on LB, other than ACs I've never experienced a crew that had the same levels of comradery and activity.
