Even throwing in the Troy and ND losses, LSU has the best inter-conference record over the last 20 years of any Power 5 Team that has played a meaningful number of inter-conference games.
Why did you use 20 years? What about 25 or 15 years?

BCS era. And its the stats that the linked website included.
eta. If you are implying that LSU's inter-conference winning percentage would decrease by discounting Saban's years at LSU, you'd be wrong.
Saban lost to UAB, Virginia Tech, Texas, and Iowa in five season. Les lost to Penn State, Clemson, Notre Dame, and Wisconsin in 11.25 seasons. Orgeron Lost to Troy and and Notre Dame in 1.75 seasons.

Easy. Anything prior to that is really meaningless. Only a few teams gave a shite about football prior to that time because it wasn’t the money making juggernaut that it is today. Money and effort was not being shoveled into it then like it is now.
I’m sorry that this hurts the feelings of fans of teams like Bama and Notre Dame, but it’s easy to be the best kid on the block at a sport when you are the only kid actually playing the sport. It would be like me bragging about kicking your arse in chess if you had never played chess before. It’s a meaningless brag.
