2007: LSU 34, Tulane 9
2008: LSU 40, Troy 31
2009: LSU 24, LaTech 16
2010: LSU 32, McNeese 10
2012: LSU 38, Towson 22
2015: LSU 44, Eastern Michigan 22
2016: LSU 34, Jacksonville St 13
2017: Troy 24, LSU 21
2021: LSU 27, ULM 14
Maybe some of these weren’t as ugly as I remember. Point is, it happens. Win the day, try to move on and improve.

I remember both those Troy games. They are not a rent a win. Clemson found out yesterday.

That Towson game was one of the more boring sporting events I ever attended.

Don’t forget the 2004 slugfest against Troy.

That Troy game 2008 was the most miserable I’ve ever been in the stadium. The “hot chocolate” was cold and ran out.
The next coldest was a loss to Ole Miss, maybe 2001???. Man jt was cold.

I was in Fairmont,WV for a work project. I remember driving around the hotel parking lot trying to get the 870 broadcast to stay alive. I remember it going out for minutes at a time and wondering wtf was going on….

Don’t forget Saban in this. Didn’t he lose to UAB his first year at LSU?
Posted on 9/7/25 at 5:38 pm to TexasTiger08
That Towson game was especially brutal and depressing to watch
Posted on 9/7/25 at 5:39 pm to TexasTiger08
Even in the Saban era we lost to UAB in year 1 and 2004 coming off of a natty we needed a 4th quarter comeback vs Troy and needed 7-5 Oregon St to miss 3 PATs (from a future Groza winner) to beat them in OT at home.

A few of us stayed until the bitter end against Troy in 2008. That’s one of the coldest football games I’ve ever attended. I think the coldest was probably the Independence Bowl against Notre Dame in 1997.

Feel like I should be reading about 7 different Troy games
Posted on 9/7/25 at 5:54 pm to TexasTiger08
Only 1 national championship team in there who had 2 losses
Posted on 9/7/25 at 5:57 pm to TexasTiger08
That’s pretty bad liar they were all bad

I remember a year or two ago when moscona asked T Bob on whiskey and wine if the players actually care about these games. I respected T Bob for being honest and just straight saying no.
Posted on 9/7/25 at 6:06 pm to TexasTiger08
Troy 08 we were down 24-3 at one point
Posted on 9/7/25 at 6:10 pm to TexasTiger08
2019 is termed one of the greatest ever and had the same margin of victory at half against a team significantly worse than what we faced. People are just idiotic.
Posted on 9/7/25 at 6:11 pm to TexasTiger08
iirc the 2003 team struggled with Western Carolina or maybe Western Illinois?

Dude, The Rant is not a place for rational objective thought. You have to get on the 5th grade level here.
