Yes. But in every case the Tigers were playing teams that finshed with poorer PAC 10 records than LSU's record in the SEC. They played two games against teams that finished with winning records in the PAC 10 (Oregon State and Arizona State each finished at 5-3). LSU finished 6-2 and 7-1 during the SEC regular seasons those years (7-2 after losing the SEC championship game after one of them). Both games were very competetive and could've gone either way. There was no suggestion of substantial LSU superiority; particularly in the Oregon State game that was won because Oregon State's placekicker couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.

And as someone who was at the LSU/Washington game I can vouch that LSU hardly dominated a Washington team that lost EVERY game the prior season. Losing to that UW team would have been an embarassment of epic proportions.
We've come a long way from 1983 when a top 10 Washington team came to Baton Rouge and got skulldrug by a LSU team that finished 0-6 in the SEC that year. The 0-6 in the SEC part royally sucked but damn it was sweet to lay the wood to a highly touted Pac 10 school and I was there to see it.
