re: What's the more embarrassing loss: Troy or MISS ST?

Yes

Troy...

Look rationalizing that we made it close with Troy illustrates just how embarrassing this loss is. Another poster pointed out...losing to another SEC team won't register in a few years...this really is Michigan vs App State level an embarrassing loss for the ages.

If Michigan State, Wisconsin, or Penn State get waxed at Rutgers in week 3 it is noteworthy for sure and turns a lot of heads. However, if two weeks later the you also lose to Buffalo with all you goals still technically in front of you, snapping a 17 year old streak, it's much more embarrassing.

One was a blowout on the road one of the worst teams in a power 5 conf.

I'd say one of the worst is a bit of a stretch for me, but I can see how one might see it that way. Being our worst loss vs miss state puts that game up there for embarrasing.

The other was a 3 pt loss (although it really wasn't that close) to a sunbelt team in TS

Our first ever loss to a sunbelt team is incredibly embarrassing. The game really didn't feel that close in Tiger Stadium. But for me, the tipping point that makes Troy the real embarrassment is that we paid them nearly 1 mil to come into Tiger Stadium and beat us on Homecoming.

And they mocked us about it, rightfully so

Troy. LSU should expect to lose to Miss State.

Neither one was embarrassing considering our youth and inexperience....

Actually, kind of expected it...

Troy

Troy for sure

At least Moo State is a conference opponent, and they are much closer to our talent level than Troy.
