I wonder what the record is for most consecutive season opening losses? What LSU is doing may just be historic.

No offense, but you seem obsessed over Louisiana State.

This thread is about teams that have won a season opener in the last 5 years.

But why? Why play these games? USC wasn’t anything special. So why? Where did it help? USC went 7-6 and LSU should’ve beat them.

Let's expound on this.

2020 - Mississippi State went 4-7
2021 - UCLA went 8-4
2022 - Florida State went 10-3
2023 - Florida State went 13-1
2024 - USC went 7-6

2023 FSU would be considered a "good loss." The rest are terrible.
