When was the last time that LSU won a game of note when they were the underdog? Was LSU underdog in 2007 v UF or in 2011 at Alabama? Cannot recall, but it seems that LSU rarely wins games the pundits says it should lose.

Well Florida was ranked #1 coming in in 2007. So what do you think?

How many times have we had several losses in the same year that were so embarrassing that no matter who we played they would make us an underdog?

I'm no Ed O supporter, but he won a game LAST WEEK that many people thought we would lose. Vegas thought it was basically a coin flip.

Florida wasn't ranked #1 in 2007, pretty sure we were. We were definitely the underdog in Tuscaloosa in 2011.

That was, and is, a shite Florida team. Let's not glamorize last week too too much.

LSU was ranked #1 and Fla as #9.

That's what I think.

Well according to space Cowboy and Tiger Ree we do have a great HC. O was the best candidate hands down, head and shoulders above the rest.

Nobody is glamorizing anything. Just pointing out a fact that is relevant to his post.

We were. I'm 95% sure the actual answer to OP's question is 2014 Ole Miss, we closed a 3 point dog or so.
