So you're saying great coaches don't occasionally lose to significantly inferior opponents?
Of course not, they all do but the Troy loss is not the same as UAB (or Saban losing to ULM first year at Alabama) because the circumstances of the program were vastly different. It’s not the unforgivable sin some here have made it to be but it was a pretty bad much more comparable to Miami Ohio. At least both Troy and Miami were good teams those years.
ETA Saban also bounced back and beat top Tenn the next week

Noticed you didn't bother to address Arnsparger being in the Top 10 every year and losing to Miami of Ohio in 1986.
That’s a better comp to Troy (see above) and for the sake of accuracy we were ranked in the top 10 going into that game after betting A&M but were ranked in the teens mostly. It was also a different era and LSU wasn’t nearly as strong a program as it is now
