Slap at TROY with a backhanded compliment of LSU? I don't know but maybe LSU is up for the task.

Troy earned that backhanded slap. Time for all of them to understand there's not that much separation as they'd like to think. They continue to stack the deck and every year one or two find they aren't the demi-gods they think they are. ESPN needs to quit the glorification of the SEC and move on to covering sports like they did when they started out.

Don't want to de-rail, but...is Troy the only G5 with a win over a now-ranked team?

Hard to say. AAC has a couple wins over on again off again ranked teams.

LSU is not going to beat Alabama. Get that out of your head now...

No. Houston beat Arizona (now #23), San Diego State beat Stanford (now (#18), and Troy beat LSU (now # 19). Those are the only G5's with Top 25 wins.

I think he was implying that losing to Troy lit a fire under the LSU coaching staff and players, and the rest of the SEC will have to deal with a talented and hungry LSU team trying to prove they belong. I don't think he meant that it hurt the perception of the SEC.

That's a good way to look at it.

There's not even a maybe to it. LSU has a less than zero percent chance of beating Bama. LSU's not very good to begin with, and Bama is well...Bama.

su

Thing he was implying both thoughts. Troy lit a fire under LSU no doubt but the game also hurt the SEC image they present at every opportunity they can. It had to hurt that superman image. Lowly Troy went to their famed Death Valley and whupped their ass. Had to hurt then and continues to do so with each LSU win in the conference .
