LSU guess we took a lot out of them

The AD will be gone also.

 

[Shrmdougluvr]

this takes a lot of steam out of our moral victory...

I think this makes it clear there was no moral victory. The Dungey pick, the Riley drop, and all the ridiculous penalties (called by the only non-homer refs i have seen all year) … SU lost that game as much as LSU won it.

LSU sucks

We're not very good

Troy is an above average middle tier team

Remaining season is now all about development and building toward next year. We have no clear wins remaining on our schedule. 4 win season is probably our best case scenario

 

[Reyes39]

It's been that way for 20 years though

When does it stop? Every man gets tired of tailgating and jiggling his keys on 3rd down at some point...right?!

Pitt and BC are clear wins. Florida State and Wake Forest can be hung with.

HAHAHAHAHAA!!! I actually am sitting on my couch laughing like a mental patient when I read this, woke my wife up just now!!

Funniest tweet ever!

Good for him. 12 M buyout

12 M?? And not have to put up with that crap? Jeez, I think I’d go full Costanza and start dragging Billy Cannon’s Heisman around the parking lot at this point.

Apropos of nothing, may Scott Shafer enjoy taco Tuesday to the fullest, and have his plumbing fail.

 

[CuseOnly]

For $12 Million...I would go full Gerg and get out not one but ALL of my stuffed animals on the sidelines and hand them out to the players and as LOUDLY as possible, read them the Little Engine That Could as my pregame speech. And make sure I requested the AD's presence at said speech.

Done.

 

[CuseOnly]

That Fake Sportscenter twitter is killin me today...

 

[Ish88888]

Yes really depressing. Add in the fact mtsu got smoked by fau and cmu got smoked by BC!

 

[TexanMark]

Classy LOL...gotta love FB in the deep south.

I’m going to have to stay with my point that the transitive is useless in college football.

I have to because man, was it ever unfriendly to us yesterday.

I don't get why someone can't give me money to fail.

 

[Trueblue25]

LSU sucks we just don't execute. We have talent and heart but we don't have discipline and mental toughness yet.

Having Pitt, BC and Wake at home gives me hope. Off chance of FSU but they'll be better then.

If we win all 3 of those and play more competitively against everyone else than we did last year, I’ll feel very good about things as far as progress made from year one to two.

 

[qdawgg]

And to think I took some last week because I said LSU wasn’t as good as people wanted to make them out to be. Always hurts less to lose a game and build up the team we lost to to be bettt than they are.

I used to love Johnny Carson's curses, such as:

"May the Bird of Paradise make a nest in your nose!"

or

"May you be accosted in a seedy bar by a man named Raoul!"

I don't think it matters right now. We just need to continue to get better and get to 6 wins which will get us a bowl game no matter what anyone thinks. Our reputation will matter when we get one.

Well, well, well – bit in the ass by little, big Troy. Think Ed is on the HOT SEAT?? His overall record as a head coach is 25 – 31. IMO, he’ll be fired before the season ends!

LSU paid Troy $985K to beat them on homecoming, burn them on Twitter

© Getty Images BATON ROUGE, LA - SEPTEMBER 23: Head coach Ed Orgeron of the LSU Tigers reacts during the second half of a game against the Syracuse Orange at Tiger Stadium on September 23, 2017 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Troy walked into Death Valley and showed no fear, stunning LSU, 24-21, on homecoming. The final score didn't quite reflect how thoroughly the Trojans pushed the Tigers around. LSU mounted a late fourth-quarter rally after falling behind 24-7.

LSU has some problems to address and questions to answer. The most obvious one? Is Ed Orgeron the guy, long-term, and if not, why was he hired in the first place. And what about that $12 million buyout?

Troy rubbed some salt in some very fresh wounds by thanking the vanquished home team for the hospitality.

Oh yeah, it was also the biggest paycheck loss of the year, clocking in at just a shade under $1 million.

Other than that, though, it was a fine night in Baton Rouge.
